HawkEye 360, a leading provider of radio frequency (RF) intelligence and analysis, has officially joined the U.S. Space Force's Space (S4S) Commercial Integration Cell (CIC), marking a key step in advancing public-private collaboration for national defense in orbit. The CIC, housed within the Combined Space Operations Center (CSpOC), enables dynamic information sharing between U.S. Space C

SES and Singapore-based SpeQtral have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to co-develop a new Optical Ground Station (OGS) aimed at facilitating long-distance satellite-based Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) between Europe and Asia. This agreement sets the stage for both companies to link their current and future QKD satellite networks through a shared, interoperable OGS. The goal is

Scientists don't call it the "Great Dying" for nothing. About 252 million years ago, upward of 80% of all marine species vanished during the end-Permian mass extinction - the most extreme event of its kind in Earth's history. What followed was a mysterious, multimillion-year span that could be called the "Great Dulling," when marine animal communities looked

New research led by a York University professor sheds light on the earliest days of the Earth's formation and potentially calls into question some earlier assumptions in planetary science about the early years of rocky planets. Establishing a direct link between the Earth's interior dynamics occurring within the first 100 million years of its history and its present-day structure, the work is on

The initial image from Italy's IRIDE Earth observation mission was unveiled today, depicting a high-detail strip of the Italian peninsula, including Rome, at a resolution of 2.66 meters. This marks a threefold improvement over previous standard satellite data available for the region. Captured by the Pathfinder Hawk microsatellite on March 5, 2025, the image was taken during a pass over ce

Space Debris: Is it a Crisis?

The European Space Agency’s short documentary film ‘Space Debris: Is it a Crisis?’ on the state of space debris premiered at the 9th European Conference on Space Debris on 1 Apr 2025.

Earth is surrounded by thousands of satellites carrying out important work to provide telecommunications and navigation services, help us understand our climate, and answer fundamental questions about the Universe.

However, as our use of space accelerates like never before, these satellites find themselves navigating increasingly congested orbits in an environment criss-crossed by streams of fast-moving debris fragments resulting from collisions, fragmentations and

Fram2 launch

SpaceX launched a Crew Dragon spacecraft March 31 on a private astronaut mission that is the first crewed spaceflight to pass over the poles.

Cape Canaveral (AFP) April 1, 2025
SpaceX launched the first human spaceflight directly over Earth's polar regions on Monday - a days-long, privately funded orbital mission involving four astronauts. Named "Fram2" after the famed Norwegian ship built in the 19th century for Arctic and Antarctic expeditions, the mission will feature a range of experiments including taking the first X-ray in space and growing mushrooms in micr
Washington DC (UPI) Mar 31, 2025
SpaceX on Monday launched another batch of satellites from Starlink mission launches from Florida on Monday afternoon, about 5 1/2 hours before another Falcon 9 nearby sent a privately funded crew into space. The SpaceX rocket lifted off at 3:52 p.m. EDT, sending 28 Starlink satellites into low Earth orbit from Page 40. This was the 17th flight for the first stage booster, including 11
NG-1 liftoff

Blue Origin says its next New Glenn launch will be as soon as late spring after completing an investigation into the failed booster landing on the vehicle’s first flight.
