Picture yourself at an airport a few decades from now. What does your airliner look like? It's more efficient, with lower emissions than today's aircraft - what kinds of designs or technology make that possible? NASA is working to answer those questions by commissioning five new design studies looking to push the boundaries of possibility for sustainable aircraft. Through NASA's Advanced A

On November 11, 2024, at 07:38 UTC, the research rocket MAPHEUS 15 embarked on a milestone flight over Swedish Lapland, marking the 600th launch beyond the Arctic Circle. This mission, facilitated by the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and international partners, hosted 21 experiments focusing on material physics in zero gravity. MAPHEUS 15 reached an unprecedented altitude of 309 kilometers

The upper stage of Ariane 6, Europe's latest rocket, has successfully completed its final testing phase at the European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC) in the Netherlands, confirming its readiness for a four-booster variant launch, the most powerful version of Ariane 6. Five tests at varying acoustic intensities validated the upper stage's cap

Data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) are challenging the long-held model of galaxy formation that posited the involvement of invisible dark matter. Researchers at Case Western Reserve University have published findings in *The Astrophysical Journal* suggesting that instead of dark matter, an alternative gravitational theory might explain the formation of early galaxies.

A model of the CHIME instrument has recently undergone rigorous testing to confirm it can endure the stresses of launch and the harsh conditions of space. This new Copernicus mission will provide critical data to support sustainable agriculture, and more.
