Early Matter-Dominated Universe May Have Spawned the First Black Holes and Exotic Stars
In the first fraction of a second after the Big Bang, long before atoms or light-filled galaxies existed, the newborn cosmos may already have been seeded with complex structures. A new theoretical study published in Physical Review D by researchers from SISSA, in collaboration with INFN, IFPU, and the University of Warsaw, suggests that primordial halos of matter could have collapsed to form the York Space demonstrates successful payload commissioning for BARD mission
York Space Systems completed the initial commissioning of the Polylingual Experimental Terminal (PExT) payload on the BARD mission, validating the mission's operations concept and advancing wideband space communications for NASA.
During a continuous wave pass, York's operations team established first-contact telemetry download. The Tracking and Data Relay Satellite (TDRS) acquired signal w Dust and Sand Movements Reshape Martian Slopes
A meteoroid impact near Apollinaris Mons on Mars produced streaks and more than a hundred fresh markings across the slopes, as recorded by ESA's ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter on December 24, 2023. The Colour and Stereo Surface Imaging System (CaSSIS) gathered images that show a cluster of impact craters in the dust-shifted areas at the base of the slope. With supporting data from other imagery, rese The archaeologist's guide to colonizing other worlds

European Service Module-4 is ready to sail
In a few days, ESA’s fourth European Service Module will leave the integration halls of Airbus in Bremen, Germany, setting sail across the Atlantic Ocean in the next step of its journey. The module will propel NASA’s Orion spacecraft towards the Moon during Artemis IV, supplying the crew with water, air, electricity and a comfortable temperature throughout their voyage.
SpaceX launches 29 satellites after fireball spotted in the sky
SpaceX launched 29 more of its Starlink satellites into low-Earth orbit on Sunday, a day after a fireball was spotted in the sky off the coast of Florida.
The company said Sunday that the satellites were launched at 3:10 a.m. local time by a Falcon 9 rocket from Space Launch Complex 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center.
After the launch, the first-stage booster landed on a barge ca Bezos's Blue Origin postpones rocket launch over weather
Blue Origin, the space company owned by billionaire Jeff Bezos, was forced Sunday to postpone the anticipated launch of its New Glenn rocket due to unfavorable weather conditions.
Rain and a ground system issue caused delays that were followed by cumulus cloud cover as the 88-minute launch window closed, leaving managers with the only option of pushing back the rocket's planned second missio Sentinel-1D extends global radar imaging as new Copernicus satellite enters orbit
The European Space Agency's Sentinel-1D satellite, equipped with Airbus's Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), has successfully launched, joining Sentinel-1A and Sentinel-1C in orbit. This addition ensures uninterrupted radar data acquisition for monitoring worldwide land and ocean environments with an operational lifetime planned for over seven years.
Sentinel-1D supports a range of missions a
