Eclipse-maker: How Proba-3 subtracts the Sun
Tuesday, 26 November 2024 14:14
Hidden in plain sight within the Sun’s glare is the ultra-hot yet ghostly faint solar corona, source of the solar wind and solar storms. The only way to see this key element of the Solar System is either through the remarkable cosmic coincidence that gives rise to total solar eclipses – the fact that the Sun is not only 400 times bigger than our Moon but also about 400 times further away, allowing it to cover the solar disc entirely – or else through artificial Sun-obscuring telescopes.

Firefly Aerospace prepares Blue Ghost Lunar mission for launch
Tuesday, 26 November 2024 03:53
Firefly Aerospace announced the successful completion of environmental testing for its Blue Ghost lunar lander, marking a significant milestone ahead of its maiden mission to the Moon under NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) initiative. The lander is scheduled to ship to Cape Canaveral, Florida, in mid-December for launch aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, with a six-day launch window Rocket Lab completes two launches in under 24 hours

Rocket Lab USA, Inc. (Nasdaq: RKLB) has achieved a significant milestone, completing its 56th Electron mission and deploying five satellites for French Internet-of-Things (IoT) constellation operator Kineis.
The mission, titled "Ice AIS Baby," launched from Rocket Lab's Launch Complex 1 in Mahia, New Zealand, at 4:55 pm on November 25 NZDT (03:55 UTC). The satellites were deployed into a 6 Space transportation leader Isar Aerospace secures 15 million euros ESA contract
Tuesday, 26 November 2024 03:53
Isar Aerospace has signed a new contract worth over 15 million euros with the European Space Agency (ESA) under the Boost! program. This funding strengthens the company's position as Europe's most well-funded independent New Space company, with over 400 million euros in private backing, and enhances Europe's commercial space transportation capabilities to ensure sovereign access to space. Europa Clipper deploys instruments on journey to icy moon of Jupiter
Tuesday, 26 November 2024 03:53
NASA's Europa Clipper spacecraft, launched on October 14, is well on its way to Jupiter's moon Europa, having already traveled 13 million miles (20 million kilometers) from Earth. The mission, designed to determine whether Europa's icy crust and subsurface ocean can support life, has successfully deployed critical instruments that will remain active throughout its decade-long journey and mission Anduril secures contract to upgrade space surveillance network
