Exactly 15 years ago, in December 2010, the German TanDEM-X mission began routine radar imaging of Earth to produce a global digital elevation model, launching a long-running Earth observation program. Over six years, data from the twin radar satellites were processed into a consistent, high-precision digital elevation model that covers all land surfaces on the planet. This elevation model has s

A University of Cincinnati physicist and collaborators from Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory MIT and Technion-Israel Institute of Technology have developed a theoretical framework showing how axions or axion like particles could be produced and studied in deuterium tritium fusion reactors lined with lithium. Their analysis builds on a recurring joke arc in the television series The Bi

From its perch on a rugged ridge in Gale Crater, NASA's Curiosity rover has stitched together a holiday postcard that doubles as a science panorama, framing the Nevado Sajama drill site against a hazy Martian sky. The scene merges two Mastcam mosaics taken on Nov. 18, 2025 - late afternoon on sol 4722 and early morning on sol 4723 - then tinted in cool blues and warm golds to emphasize changing

The University of Copenhagen will lead Denmark's first lunar mission, a European Space Agency project that will map the Moon's surface in three dimensions to support future landings and base construction. The Mani satellite will orbit the Moon's north and south polar regions, acquiring high-resolution images that can be combined into detailed elevation models. By imaging the same are
