NASA plans February 2025 launch for SPHEREx mission to map the cosmos
Sunday, 15 December 2024 10:28
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 Discovery of a planet with a shifting gas tail

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 signs agreement with KVH for OneWeb LEO satellite solution

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 Airbus completes delivery of Space42 Thuraya 4 satellite for December launch
Sunday, 15 December 2024 10:28
Space42's latest telecommunications satellite, Thuraya 4, designed and built by Airbus, has arrived at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. It is set to launch into orbit aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket later this month. The satellite was transported from Toulouse, France, using an Airbus BelugaST (A300-600ST) aircraft.
Thuraya 4, a geostationary satellite, will enhance connectivity across Black holes at the heart of Milky Way's largest star cluster reshaped in new research
Sunday, 15 December 2024 10:28
For decades, scientists have debated the source of unusual star movements in Omega Centauri, the Milky Way's largest star cluster. Recent research, incorporating new pulsar data, provides clarity, suggesting that a cluster of stellar-mass black holes, rather than a single intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH), is responsible.
Omega Centauri, home to nearly ten million stars, is located in th Uncrewed aircraft systems traffic management expands beyond line of sight
Sunday, 15 December 2024 10:28
NASA is advancing its Uncrewed Aircraft Systems Traffic Management Beyond Visual Line of Sight (UTM BVLOS) initiative to meet the global surge in drone usage for various applications.
Drones, or uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS), are increasingly used for services ranging from package delivery to emergency response operations such as search and rescue. Presently, these flights are largely re Japan's Space One delays Kairos rocket launch again
