ISS National Lab Showcases Advances in Microgravity Physical Science Research
Write a comment
A recent publication in 'Gravitational and Space Research' highlights significant findings from research conducted through the ISS National Laboratory, focusing on transport phenomena - key processes that govern the movement of momentum, energy, and mass. These processes, such as heat transfer and diffusion, are fundamental to understanding how substances interact with their surroundings.

PLD Space has announced the selection of Deimos to co-lead the development of the Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) system for its MIURA 5 orbital launcher. Scheduled to commence its launch campaign in late 2025, this collaboration aims to enhance MIURA 5's capability to deliver both dedicated and rideshare small payload missions efficiently and reliably. Deimos joins a growing consortium Large fire at Japan rocket test site, no injuries reported
Write a comment
A huge fire erupted Tuesday at a Japanese rocket testing station, sending flames and smoke soaring into the sky, in the latest mishap for the country's ambitious space programme.
There were no reports of any injuries in the incident, in a remote area of Kagoshima in southern Japan, where a solid-fuel Epsilon S rocket was being tested.

Eclipse-maker: How Proba-3 subtracts the Sun

Hidden in plain sight within the Sun’s glare is the ultra-hot yet ghostly faint solar corona, source of the solar wind and solar storms. The only way to see this key element of the Solar System is either through the remarkable cosmic coincidence that gives rise to total solar eclipses – the fact that the Sun is not only 400 times bigger than our Moon but also about 400 times further away, allowing it to cover the solar disc entirely – or else through artificial Sun-obscuring telescopes.
