Satellites are crucial for achieving global connectivity, especially in areas where traditional ground networks are unreachable. Through the Sunrise Partnership Project with Eutelsat OneWeb, supported by the UK Space Agency, ESA is extending advanced 5G connectivity across the globe. The OneWeb constellation consists of over 600 satellites orbiting at 1200 km above Earth in low Earth orbit

Unveiling the nature of dark matter remains one of cosmology's most pressing challenges. Though we know dark matter makes up more than 85% of the universe's matter, its true composition remains elusive. A recent study published in the 'Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics (JCAP)' explores antimatter traces in space that may point to a new class of particles, known as WIMPs (Weakly Inte

NASA plans to send crewed missions to Mars over the next decade - but the 140 million-mile (225 million-kilometer) journey to the red planet could take several months to years round trip. This relatively long transit time is a result of the use of traditional chemical rocket fuel. An alternative technology to the chemically propelled rockets the agency develops now is called nuclear therma
