ESA’s Proba-3 will be the first mission to create an artificial total solar eclipse by flying a pair of satellites 150 metres apart. For six hours at a time, it will be able to see the Sun’s faint atmosphere, the corona, in the hard-to-observe region between the Sun’s edge and 1.4 million kilometres from its surface. This new technology combined with the satellite pair’s unique extended orbit around Earth will allow Proba-3 to do important science, revealing secrets of the Sun, space weather and Earth’s radiation belts.

Featured in this month's image from the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope is the spiral galaxy NGC 2090, situated in the constellation Columba. Using data from Webb's MIRI and NIRCam instruments, the image captures the galaxy's two elegant spiral arms and intricate patterns of gas and dust with unprecedented clarity. Previously studied by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope to refine

CubeSatGPT introduces a groundbreaking platform that allows users to interact directly with satellites and payloads launched by Vector Space Biosciences. Among the payloads, over 50 tardigrades (commonly known as waterbears) will be sent into orbit on CubeSats (nanosatellites). These experiments will generate valuable datasets on microgravity and space radiation effects, transmitted back t
