In the reduced-gravity space environment, human muscles and bones atrophy faster than they do on Earth. To slow down that process, astronauts need several hours of vigorous exercise each day they are on a space mission. This requirement for regular rigorous exercise is expected to become more stringent in future manned space missions, which are expected to last longer, involve more challenging c Look Up secures major capital boost to expand radar network and space traffic services
Three years after its founding, European space surveillance firm Look Up has secured EUR 50 million in funding to accelerate the global deployment of its radar network and strengthen its suite of space traffic management services. The financing combines equity, bank debt, and non-dilutive public funding, placing it among the top three largest Series A rounds in European space technology to date. Breakthrough hybrid model restores orbit accuracy for BeiDou-3 satellites
Two BeiDou-3 navigation satellites once plagued by orbit inconsistencies are now operating with significantly improved accuracy, thanks to a novel hybrid modeling technique that better accounts for solar radiation pressure. Researchers integrated a physically based Adjustable Box-Wing (ABW) model with the empirical ECOM2 framework, cutting laser ranging residuals by over 60% and improving real-t Next generation satellite servicing spacecraft completed by Northrop Grumman
Northrop Grumman has successfully integrated a robotics payload onto its Mission Robotic Vehicle (MRV), advancing its satellite servicing platform under the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's (DARPA) Robotic Servicing of Geosynchronous Satellites (RSGS) program.
The MRV, developed by Northrop Grumman subsidiary SpaceLogistics LLC, incorporates the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory's UAH researcher unveils new map of Milky Way galaxy in atomic hydrogen
Dr. Sukanya Chakrabarti, the Pei-Ling Chan Endowed Chair at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), a part of The University of Alabama System, has co-authored a paper that uses young stars to develop a more accurate map of the outer gas disk of the Milky Way galaxy.
The findings are being presented at the 246th meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Anchorage, Alaska, on J
