Beijing says Washington still waging Cold War in space
Beijing (XNA) Aug 30, 2022
Regarding space exploration as an integral part of the building of a community with a shared future for mankind, China has always kept an open attitude to international cooperation and it is committed to using its aerospace technology and space research findings to serve the common good.
In contrast, the United States has never changed its zero-sum approach to space, and has never stopped

Scientists evaluate Earth-cooling strategies with geoengineering simulations
Ithaca NY (SPX) Aug 30, 2022
A group of international scientists led by Cornell is - more rigorously and systematically than ever before - evaluating if and how the stratosphere could be made just a little bit "brighter," reflecting more incoming sunlight so that an ever-warming Earth maintains its cool.
Their work was published Aug. 12 in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Comet impacts formed continents when Solar System entered galactic arms
Perth, Australia (SPX) Aug 30, 2022
New Curtin research has found evidence that Earth's early continents resulted from being hit by comets as our Solar System passed into and out of the spiral arms of the Milky Way Galaxy, turning traditional thinking about our planet's formation on its head.
The new research, published in Geology, challenges the existing theory that Earth's crust was solely formed by processes inside our pl

New launch attempt Saturday for NASA's Moon rocket
NASA will make a second attempt to launch its powerful new Moon rocket on Saturday, after scrubbing a test flight earlier in the week, an official said Tuesday.
The highly anticipated uncrewed mission—dubbed Artemis 1—will bring the United States a step closer to returning astronauts to the Moon five decades after humans last walked on the lunar surface.
Mission manager Mike Sarafin, said the NASA team "agreed to move our launch date to Saturday, September the third."
Blastoff had been planned for Monday morning but was canceled because a test to get one of the rocket's four RS-25 engines to the proper temperature range for launch was not successful.

NASA repairs issue with Voyager 1 space probe
Washington DC (UPI) Aug 30, 2021
Engineers with NASA have repaired an issue with the space agency's Voyager 1 spacecraft, but have yet to identify the cause of the problem, officials confirmed on Tuesday.
The probe had been sending garbled data about its status, including information about its health and activities to mission controllers, despite otherwise operating normally.
NASA also said the rest of the probe
