Washington DC (SPX) Dec 13, 2024
As NASA pioneers new technologies and methods for storytelling in space for the benefit of humanity, the agency is hosting Artemis in Motion listening sessions with industry on Thursday, Jan. 23, and Friday, Jan. 24, in Los Angeles. From the live TV images of humanity's first steps on the Moon in July of 1969 to the July 2024 two-way 4k transmissions between the International Space Station

The Sun powers life on Earth, generating immense energy through nuclear fusion and continuously releasing neutrinos - particles that provide insight into its inner workings. While modern neutrino detectors capture the Sun's present behavior, questions about its long-term stability over millions of years remain unanswered. Addressing this challenge is the focus of the LORandite EXperiment (LOREX)

The Sun, known for its volatile nature, has exhibited unusually intense solar storms this year, creating auroras visible even at lower latitudes. However, new research suggests that the Sun and its stellar relatives are capable of even more powerful events called superflares, which release over one octillion joules of energy in brief bursts. These findings come from a study analyzing data from N

People have always been mesmerized by the mysterious space because it is a world that is far away from our everyday lives. Therefore, it is not surprising that software developers used this interest to create online slots. These slot machines are extremely popular because they include impressive visuals, up-to-date mechanics, and fun sounds. Another fact that makes these games even more attractive is that they come up with no deposit free spins.

The first-ever photo of a black hole rocked the world in 2019, when the Event Horizon Telescope, or EHT, published an image of the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy M87, also known as Virgo A or NGC 4486, located in the constellation of Virgo. This black hole is surprising scientists again with a teraelectronvolt gamma-ray flare - emitting pho

New findings from radio astronomy reveal that planetary systems form in a chain reaction, where the formation of one planet near a central star encourages the formation of subsequent planets farther out. This process mirrors the domino effect, with each planet facilitating the formation of the next. Over 5,000 planetary systems have been identified so far, with more than 1,000 confirmed to

Ultra-high energy cosmic rays, which emerge in extreme astrophysical environments - like the roiling environments near black holes and neutron stars - have far more energy than the energetic particles that emerge from our sun. In fact, the particles that make up these streams of energy have around 10 million times the energy of particles accelerated in the most extreme particle environment on ea

On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse swept across North America, from the western shores of Mexico, through the United States, and into northeastern Canada. For the eclipse, NASA helped fund numerous research projects and called upon citizen scientists in support of NASA's goal to understand how our home planet is affected by the Sun - including, for example, how our star interacts with Earth

Equatorial Launch Australia (ELA) has announced the immediate cessation of operations at the Arnhem Space Centre in the Northern Territory, citing unresolved lease negotiations. The company will relocate its spaceport to a new site in Queensland, marking a significant shift in its operational strategy. The decision stems from the Northern Land Council's (NLC) repeated delays in approving a

The Indian Navy and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) have advanced preparations for Gaganyaan's recovery operations by conducting "Well Deck" recovery trials on December 6, 2024. The exercise took place under the Eastern Naval Command using a well deck-equipped ship off the coast of Visakhapatnam. A ship's well deck can be flooded to allow docking of smaller vessels, landing c

NASA and SpaceX have announced a targeted launch date in late February 2025 for SPHEREx, a next-generation astrophysics observatory. The Spectro-Photometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization and Ices Explorer (SPHEREx) will launch aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg Space Force Base, California. SPHEREx, roughly the size of a compact car, will orbit Earth in

WASP-69 b, a hot Jupiter exoplanet, is shedding its atmosphere over time, releasing hydrogen and helium particles due to intense stellar radiation. Unlike uniform atmospheric loss, these gases are shaped into a tail-like structure by the stellar wind emitted from the planet's host star. Hot Jupiters are gas giants that orbit close to their stars, making them vulnerable to a process known a

Seaspan Corporation, a global leader in independent containership leasing, has entered an agreement with KVH Industries to equip its fleet with OneWeb's advanced low-earth orbit (LEO) satellite technology. This initiative underscores Seaspan's commitment to delivering shore-like internet capabilities at sea as part of its broader digital transformation strategy, complementing the fleet's existin
