Help ESA redefine the future of space computing
Due to the growing volume of data produced by Earth observation (EO), traditional computing architectures struggle to process information efficiently and promptly. To mitigate this issue, prepare Europe for the future of space computing, and grow from Earth observation into Earth action, ESA is seeking innovative mission concepts that use disruptive computing paradigms, potentially coupled with matching sensing technologies that could either bring new capabilities for Earth-orbiting satellites, or significantly improve current mission constrains.
Japan launches third rocket to measure climate change
A Japanese company has launched a rocket designed to monitor sea temperature and greenhouse gases as part of its overall mission to study the effects of climate change on the atmosphere.
The Japanese Aerospace Exploration Company launched its 50th and final H-2A rocket mission, sending the GOSAT-GW into orbit from the Yoshinobu Launch Complex at the Tanegashima Space Center in Japan on MTG-S1 satellite hosting the Sentinel-4 instrument is ready for liftoff
The Meteosat Third Generation Sounder (MTG-S1) satellite, which is hosting the instrument for the Copernicus Sentinel-4 mission, has been placed inside the nose cone of the Falcon 9 launch rocket and is ready for the scheduled liftoff at 23:03 CEST on Tuesday, 1 July.

Study challenges climate change's link to our wild winter jet stream
Dartmouth study challenges the idea that climate change is behind the erratic wintertime behavior of the polar jet stream, the massive current of Arctic air that regulates weather for much of the Northern Hemisphere.
Large waves in the jet stream observed since the 1990s have, in recent years, driven abnormally frigid temperatures and devastating winter storms deep into regions such as the Mini halo found around distant galaxy cluster reveals early cosmic particle activity
Astronomers have detected a diffuse cloud of high-energy particles-called a mini halo-surrounding one of the universe's most distant known galaxy clusters, providing new insights into the energetic forces that shaped the cosmos nearly 10 billion years ago.
This mini halo is the most distant ever observed, surpassing the previous record by a factor of two. Its discovery confirms that galaxy
