First young brown dwarfs found outside the Milky Way?
An international team of astronomers has used the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope to detect the first brown dwarf candidates outside the Milky Way in the star cluster NGC 602.
New imaging technique reveals 3D views of the Universe
Researchers at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities College of Science and Engineering have pioneered a new method that converts two-dimensional (2D) radio images into three-dimensional (3D) "Pseudo3D cubes," enhancing our understanding of celestial objects in the Universe.
This groundbreaking technique, designed specifically for radio images, has been published in the *Monthly Notices NASA continues to assess Solar Sail system progress following deployment
NASA's Advanced Composite Solar Sail System is advancing through post-deployment testing, with mission operators carefully reviewing data to evaluate the performance of the spacecraft's composite booms. Following the successful deployment of both the booms and solar sail, the spacecraft continues to experience slow tumbling in orbit due to the deactivation of its attitude control system.
P Phase Four unveils monopropellant multi-mode propulsion systems
Phase Four, a leader in next-generation electric propulsion solutions for satellites, has announced the commercialization of its monopropellant multi-mode propulsion systems. Using their Maxwell Block III, Phase Four's technology supports electric propulsion capabilities for various mission needs, utilizing either ASCENT or hydrazine chemical propellants. The company plans to begin taking orders China deploys new Yaogan-43 remote-sensing satellite group
China successfully launched a Long March 2C rocket on Wednesday, delivering a new group of Yaogan-43 remote-sensing satellites into orbit. The launch occurred at 9:09 am Beijing Time from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in Sichuan Province, marking the 542nd flight of the Long March rocket series.
The Yaogan-43 03 group will conduct tests on new technologies for low-orbit satellite con A micro-scale look at how parachute textiles act under stress
Parachutes have many applications, decelerating everything from skydivers to supersonic-speed scientific payloads. Regardless of what a parachute is slowing down, two things remain constant: the parachute must withstand large amounts of force, and it is crucial to ensuring the safety of whatever it's carrying. To choose parachute materials that do their jobs effectively, it's important to fully Space Solar and Transition Labs to bring space solar power to Iceland by 2030
Space Solar, a leading company in space-based solar power, has partnered with Transition Labs to provide Reykjavik Energy with electricity from the world's first space-based solar power plant. This plant, expected to be operational by 2030, will have an initial capacity of 30 MW.
Space Solar's new solar power system will orbit the Earth, capturing solar energy and transmitting it wirelessl
