During disaster situations, effective communication becomes essential, but often ground networks are compromised. This issue leaves both the general public and emergency responders with limited access to critical information. Bandwidth shortages can significantly delay emergency operations, leading to loss of life. Recent calamities such as severe floods and wildfires highlight the growing neces

The international Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite, developed by NASA and CNES (Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales), has captured unique data on a significant tsunami contained within the steep confines of Greenland's Dickson Fjord. This rare event, triggered by a massive rockslide in September 2023, sent seismic reverberations across the planet for nine days.

NASA's SPHEREx mission, set for launch by April 2025, aims to provide an all-sky survey like no other, observing stars and galaxies in 102 different infrared colors. Although not visible to the human eye, these infrared observations will provide crucial insights into the universe, ranging from its very early moments to the potential sources of water on planets like Earth.

On a cold, ancient Mars, thick ice layers protected vast lakes and river systems, providing clues to how water flowed across the Red Planet some 3.6 billion years ago. According to new findings by the Planetary Science Institute, carbon dioxide frozen out of Mars' atmosphere helped create conditions that allowed substantial water flow even without a warmer climate.

In the 1997 film "Contact," based on Carl Sagan's novel, the protagonist Ellie Arroway, played by Jodie Foster, takes a journey via a space-alien-constructed wormhole to the star Vega. What she finds is a scene of swirling debris, with no evident planets. Recent observations seem to affirm the filmmakers' depiction.
