Auroras are natural luminous phenomena caused by the interaction of electrons falling from the sky and the upper atmosphere. Most of the observed light consists of emission lines of neutral or ionized nitrogen and oxygen atoms and molecular emission bands, and the color is determined by the transition energy levels, molecular vibrations and rotations. There is a variety of characteristic colors

NASA is dedicated to exploring the potential for life beyond Earth, although no credible evidence of extraterrestrial life has been found yet. This exploration addresses fundamental questions, including whether humanity is alone in the universe. Researchers investigating the possibility of extraterrestrial life consider various forms of life, from microbial to complex civilizations. Detect

SpaceX scrubbed plans to launch a re-supply mission to the International Space Station from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida on Saturday morning because of unfavorable weather conditions. The Falcon 9 was scheduled to launch from Space Launch Complex 40 at 11:29 a.m. ET. A backup launch opportunity is 11:02 a.m. ET Sunday. But the 45th Weather Squadron predicts only

SpaceX launched 23 Starlink satellites into orbit early Friday morning from the Kennedy Space Center Pad 39A. The Falcon 9 rocket blasted off at 1 a.m., EDT, with the first stage returning to Earth to stick its Atlantic Ocean landing on the drone ship A Shortfall of Gravitas. SpaceX moved back the launch for nearly an hour into the launch window, which started at 12:19 a.m.

NASA's Space Launch System (SLS) core stage arrived at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on July 24, 2024. The 65-meter-long core stage was transported by tugboats and towing vessels, covering a 1,448-kilometer journey from NASA's Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans where it was constructed. In the coming months, NASA teams will integrate the core stage with the mobile launcher and

Rocket Lab has launched its 51st Electron rocket, deploying a single satellite into low Earth orbit for Synspective, a Japanese Earth-imaging company. The mission, named "Owl For One, One For Owl" in reference to Synspective's StriX satellites, which are named after the genus of owls, lifted off at 04:39 a.m., August 3rd NZT (16:39 UTC, August 2nd) from Launch Complex 1, Rocket Lab's priva

Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have created innovative sheets of transition metal chalcogenide "cubes" linked by chlorine atoms. Unlike the widely studied atom-based sheets such as graphene, the team's research introduces the novel use of clusters. They successfully formed nanoribbons within carbon nanotubes for structural analysis and also created microscale sheets of cubes, whi

In electronic technologies, critical material properties change in response to stimuli like voltage or current. Scientists strive to understand these changes at various scales, from the nanoscale to the microscale. However, the often-overlooked mesoscale - spanning 10 billionths to 1 millionth of a meter - is now coming into focus. Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argon

The Next-Generation Microelectronics Manufacturing (NGMM) program is set to revolutionize U.S. microelectronics production through a new agreement to establish the first national center dedicated to advancing domestic microelectronics manufacturing. DARPA is collaborating with the University of Texas at Austin and its Texas Institute for Electronics research center to form a consortium sup
