Asteroid target for Hayabusa2 found to be smaller and faster than expected
Paris, France (SPX) Sep 22, 2025
Astronomers using the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope and other facilities worldwide have discovered that asteroid 1998 KY26, the final target of Japan's Hayabusa2 mission, is significantly smaller and rotates much faster than earlier estimates suggested. The findings provide crucial guidance for mission planning as the spacecraft prepares for its 2031 rendezvous.

SES to test Cailabs optical ground stations for next generation laser links
Paris, France (SPX) Sep 17, 2025
SES will evaluate new optical ground stations from France-based Cailabs to move space data using laser rather than radio signals. The company aims to lift throughput, harden link security, and ease congestion across increasingly crowded radio frequency bands by tapping optical communications.
The effort advances space laser links that can reach up to 10 gigabits per second, roughly 100 tim

JUNO begins decade-long mission to probe neutrino mysteries
Paris, France (SPX) Sep 17, 2025
JUNO, the massive Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory in China, has officially started recording data, launching a ten-year program to investigate one of the most elusive particles in physics. Supported by an international collaboration that includes the CNRS, the detector aims to reveal how neutrinos influence both the subatomic world and the evolution of the Universe.

What 3I/ATLAS tells us about other solar systems
East Lansing MI (SPX) Sep 17, 2025
The earliest images of 3I/ATLAS, newly uncovered by Michigan State University, reveal how the interstellar object evolved as it traveled through our solar system - and how other distant solar systems might be different from our own.
Even before the comet was discovered in early July, it was hiding among the stars, too faint to be noticeable. In a new paper published in the Astrophysical Jo
