NASA's Advanced Composite Solar Sail System is advancing through post-deployment testing, with mission operators carefully reviewing data to evaluate the performance of the spacecraft's composite booms. Following the successful deployment of both the booms and solar sail, the spacecraft continues to experience slow tumbling in orbit due to the deactivation of its attitude control system.

Billions of years ago, Earth was a harsh environment, frequently bombarded by meteorites. One of the most significant impacts occurred 3.26 billion years ago, when a meteorite the size of four Mount Everests collided with the planet. This event, known as the "S2" impact, left geological evidence in the Barberton Greenstone Belt in South Africa and is the focus of new research that sheds light on

Just like we use photos to reflect on memories of our past, astrophysicists want to use images of far-off galaxies to understand what the universe was like in its juvenile years. But current imaging technology can only reach so far back in history - 90 to 95 percent of the volume of our 14-billion-year-old universe remains unseen.
