Hera’s first year in space

Video: 00:07:47

What a difference a year makes! Today Hera’s asteroid mission for planetary defence is cruising through deep space on the far side of the Sun, headed to its final destination: the Didymos binary asteroid system. But a year ago, on 7 October 2024, it was unsure if the mission was ever going to take off at all.

Its launcher was grounded due to a launch anomaly and Hurricane Milton was closing on Cape Canaveral! The mission needed to lift off then and there because it had to perform a flyby of Mars to speed it on its

ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter observes comet 3I/ATLAS – GIF

Between 1 and 7 October, ESA’s ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) and Mars Express spacecraft turned their eyes towards interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, as it passed close to Mars.

Large Space Simulator gets a digital twin

The cavernous chamber of the Large Space Simulator

The Large Space Simulator, Europe’s largest vacuum chamber, routinely reproduces space conditions on Earth to test spacecraft before they fly into orbit. The facility is complex, and the current process of training a new operator is lengthy and complicated. To make it easier, the space simulator now has a digital twin – the most realistic virtual model of the facility yet, developed for the European Space Agency (ESA) by the Spanish engineering company Empresarios Agrupados.

Determining the nature of dark matter, the invisible substance that makes up most of the mass in our universe, is one of the greatest puzzles in physics. New results from the world's most sensitive dark matter detector, LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ), have narrowed down the possibilities for one of the leading dark matter candidates: weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs). "While we always hope to

Imagine watching a favorite movie when suddenly the sound stops. The data representing the audio is missing. All that's left are images. What if artificial intelligence (AI) could analyze each frame of the video and provide the audio automatically based on the pictures, reading lips and noting each time a foot hits the ground? That's the general concept behind a new AI that fills in missin

Neuraspace, one of Europe's leading space domain awareness (SDA) providers, has expanded its role in defence and civil protection with the launch of "Neuraspace DEF," a system designed to deliver autonomous, rapid responses to threats against space-based infrastructure. The new platform advances beyond traditional passive monitoring by enabling active and self-directed control of space ope

On November 4, 2025 at 6:03 p.m. local time in French Guiana (9:03 p.m. UTC, 10:03 p.m. CET), Arianespace plans to launch the Copernicus Sentinel-1D satellite aboard Ariane 6 from Europe's Spaceport. Mission VA265 marks the launcher's third commercial flight and will target Sun-synchronous orbit near 693 km. Separation is expected about 34 minutes after liftoff. The mission underscores Eur
