NASA performs first aircraft accident investigation on another world
Engineers from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California and AeroVironment are completing a detailed assessment of the Ingenuity Mars Helicopter's final flight on Jan. 18, 2024, which will be published in the next few weeks as a NASA technical report. Designed as a technology demonstration to perform up to five experimental test flights over 30 days, Ingenuity was the first aircraf It's an Asteroid, it's a Comet, it's the Geminids Meteor Shower!
The Geminids meteor shower is back for its annual December show of beautiful bright and fast meteors. The Geminids, which will peak on the night between Dec 13 - 14 in 2024, is considered to be one of the best and most reliable annual meteor showers.
h3>Where Did the Geminids Originate and What Makes it Different? /h3>
The debris causing the Geminids originated from an asteroid known as China successfully tests XZY 1 verification rocket engine
China's XZY 1 verification rocket has successfully completed a static firing test at Haiyang Oriental Aerospace Port in Shandong province, marking a major milestone for the nation's aerospace innovation.
Developed by Beijing Jianyuan Technology Co Ltd, also known as Space Epoch, the XZY 1 is a medium-lift launch vehicle with a stainless steel body powered by liquid oxygen-methane engines. Undeterred by Friday the 13th, SpaceX plans pair of launches
SpaceX plans to launch 23 Starlink communications satellites into low-Earth orbit from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California Friday morning, weather permitting.
The planned 11:28 a.m. PT liftoff will be the first of a pair of SpaceX launches scheduled for Friday the 13th. The other will carry a GPS navigation satellite into orbit from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida so ESA to collaborate with ISRO on Gaganyaan missions
On December 4, 2024, the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) formalized an agreement that establishes ESA's support for India's Gaganyaan human spaceflight program. This collaboration will leverage ESA's ground station capabilities to aid ISRO's ambitious mission to send humans into space.
Gaganyaan is India's inaugural human spaceflight initiative NASA's crew capsule had heat shield issues during Artemis I - an aerospace expert on these critical spacecraft components
Off the coast of Baja California in December 2022, sun sparkled over the rippling sea as waves sloshed around the USS Portland dock ship. Navy officials on the deck scrutinized the sky in search of a sign. The glow appeared suddenly.
A tiny spot at first, it gradually grew to a round circle falling at a great speed from the fringes of space. It was NASA's Orion capsule, which would soon en A CubeSat mission to Phobos could map staging bases for a Mars landing
