5 October: Upper age limit of human longevity is reported as 125 years old.[276][277]
13 October: The observable universe is found to contain at least 2 trillion galaxies, about 10 times more than previously thought.[288][289]
24 October: Carbon CO2 levels expected to be above 400 ppm for the full 2016 year, just one year after this concentration was first reached.[304]

November

4 November: Superwheat, a genetically modified grain, is reported to boost yields by 20 to 40 percent.[321]
22 November: Mars - Utopia Planitia - Scalloped terrain led to the discovery of a large amount of underground ice, equivalent to the amount of water in Lake Superior. (map)[338][339][340]
