BepiColombo to swing by Mercury for the sixth time
Monday, 06 January 2025 12:00
On 8 January 2025, the ESA/JAXA BepiColombo mission will fly just 295 km above Mercury's surface, with a closest approach scheduled for 06:59 CET (05:59 UTC). It will use this opportunity to photograph Mercury, make unique measurements of the planet’s environment, and fine-tune science instrument operations before the main mission begins. This sixth and final flyby will reduce the spacecraft’s speed and change its direction, readying it for entering orbit around the tiny planet in late 2026.

Bezos's Blue Origin poised for first orbital launch next week
Sunday, 05 January 2025 10:48
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos's company Blue Origin is poised to launch its first orbital rocket next week, marking a pivotal moment in the commercial space race currently dominated by Elon Musk's SpaceX.
Named New Glenn, the rocket is scheduled to lift off from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida as soon as Wednesday 1:00 am (0600 GMT), with a backup window on Friday, according to a F SpaceX launches Falcon 9 from Florida in first flight of the year
Sunday, 05 January 2025 10:48
SpaceX launched its first flight of 2025, sending a Falcon 9 rocket into space with a Thuraya 4 satellite from Cape Canaveral Launch Complex 40 in Florida.
The Falcon 9 rocket took off at 8:27 p.m. EST Friday.
Eight minutes and 40 seconds later, the booster returned to Earth for a landing aboard SpaceX's droneship "A Shortfall of Gravitas" offshore in the Atlantic Ocean.
I First demonstration of quantum teleportation over busy Internet cables
Sunday, 05 January 2025 10:48
Northwestern University engineers are the first to successfully demonstrate quantum teleportation over a fiber optic cable already carrying Internet traffic.
The discovery, published in the journal Optica, introduces the new possibility of combining quantum communication with existing Internet cables - greatly simplifying the infrastructure required for for advanced sensing technologies or Nanotechnology discovery unlocks unique molecular interactions using light
Sunday, 05 January 2025 10:48
Researchers at the University of Bologna, led by Prof. Alberto Credi, have developed an innovative method to manipulate molecular assembly using light energy. This approach allows for the creation of a molecular configuration that defies the natural thermodynamic equilibrium, a feat previously considered unattainable.

Sunday, 05 January 2025 10:48
MIT physicists have created a new and long-lasting magnetic state in a material, using only light.
In a study appearing in Nature, the researchers report using a terahertz laser - a light source that oscillates more than a trillion times per second - to directly stimulate atoms in an antiferromagnetic material. The laser's oscillations are tuned to the natural vibrations among the material Buried landforms unveil ancient glacial history beneath the North Sea
