As plastic waste grows into a critical global environmental challenge, Tulane University researchers have released the first worldwide evaluation of where plastics create the highest ecological dangers for marine ecosystems.
The analysis shows that the most at-risk zones are not always the infamous garbage patches but often areas where plastic overlaps with dense marine life and chemical p First data released from Beyond Gravity instrument on new weather sat

Along the coast, waves break with a familiar sound. The gentle swash of the surf on the seashore can lull us to sleep, while the pounding of storm surge warns us to seek shelter.
Yet these are but a sample of the sounds that come from the coast. Most of the acoustic energy from the surf is far too low in frequency for us to hear, traveling through the air as infrasound and through the grou Tech from NASA's hurricane-hunting TROPICS rides commercial satellites
Thursday, 04 September 2025 07:46
NASA science and American industry have worked hand-in-hand for more than 60 years, transforming novel technologies created with NASA research into commercial products like cochlear implants, memory-foam mattresses, and more. Now, a NASA-funded device for probing the interior of storm systems has been made a key component of commercial weather satellites.

ESA observations of interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS
Wednesday, 03 September 2025 13:10
The European Space Agency (ESA) reacted promptly to the discovery of comet 3I/ATLAS on 1 July 2025. Soon after they were alerted to its existence by automated detection systems, ESA astronomers began using ground-based telescopes in Hawaii, Chile, and Australia to monitor its progress.
Since then, the comet has been observed by space telescopes close to Earth, including the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope.
In the coming months, ESA will turn interplanetary voyagers such as Mars Express, ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter and the Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (Juice) in the direction of the comet to make further
