RIn a mission to deepen understanding of one of Earth's most vital resources, NASA's C-20A aircraft completed seven specialized research flights in March, gathering critical data on snowmelt processes and freshwater availability. Equipped with the Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Synthetic Aperture Radar (UAVSAR), the aircraft collected precise measurements of seasonal snow cover to estimate the fresh

The European Space Agency's (ESA) Biomass mission, the seventh Earth Explorer project under its FutureEO programme, has officially launched to advance global climate monitoring through cutting-edge satellite technologies. Germany, contributing around 20 percent to the mission budget under the German Space Agency at DLR, has taken a leading role, especially through its development of the P-band s

Sierra Space has completed a major step toward enhancing the resilience of its expandable space station habitat, LIFE, through a series of hypervelocity impact tests carried out at NASA's White Sands Test Facility in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Conducted with NASA's support, the trials focused on refining a protective shield capable of enduring the intense hazards found in orbit. The LIFE habi

Earth's upper atmosphere reacts more quickly and strongly to solar flare activity than previously understood, according to new findings from Queen's University Belfast. Researchers studying a powerful solar flare from 2012 found that Earth's atmosphere exhibited synchronized pulses in direct response to rhythmic bursts of energy from the Sun. This marks the first time scientists have confi

Alright, let's talk satcom. Starlink is the shiny new toy everyone's buzzing about. Gigabit speeds? Low latency? It's disruptive, no doubt. But I've been knee-deep in this game since before smartphones were a glimmer in Steve Jobs' eye, and I'm here to tell you: this isn't a takeover; it's an evolution. h3>The Starlink Disruption /h3> Let's give credit where credit's due. a href="https:

Scientists continue to push the boundaries of lunar exploration with new strategies to identify and map ice deposits on the Moon. Ice could play a vital role in supporting future human activity on the lunar surface, providing life support resources and fuel ingredients. At the University of Hawai'i at Manoa, researchers are leading two pioneering investigations to enhance our understanding of wh

New Zealand said Monday it will crack down on foreign adversaries trying to covertly track space and satellite activity from within its territory. The country's intelligence service revealed last year that foreign entities had sought to establish space infrastructure in New Zealand that was supposedly for civilian research. In each case, they had "deliberately hidden" the full capabiliti

Three Chinese astronauts returned to Earth on Wednesday after six months on the country's space station, state media footage showed, as Beijing advances towards its aim to become a major celestial power. China has ploughed billions of dollars into its space programme in recent years in an effort to achieve what President Xi Jinping describes as the country's "space dream". The world's se

For decades, scientists believed Vesta, one of the largest objects in our solar system's asteroid belt, wasn't just an asteroid. They concluded that Vesta has a crust, mantle and core - fundamental properties of a planet. Astronomers studied it for clues to how early planets grew, and what Earth might have looked like in its infancy. Now, Michigan State University has contributed to
