Southern Ocean sea ice

Using data from ESA’s SMOS satellite, scientists have revealed a surprising shift in the Southern Ocean – surface waters around Antarctica are growing saltier, even as sea ice is diminishing rapidly. This finding defies the norm because melting ice typically freshens ocean surface water.

The implications are far-reaching as changes in this remote region can disrupt global ocean currents, affect climate patterns, and alter ecosystems far beyond the Antarctic.

ESA tracks rare interstellar comet

Artist impression of ‘Oumuamua

Astronomers have confirmed the discovery of a rare celestial visitor: a comet from beyond our Solar System.

Officially named 3I/ATLAS, this newly identified interstellar object is only the third of its kind ever observed, following the famous 1I/ʻOumuamua in 2017 and 2I/Borisov in 2019.

Linear motion is used when a part needs to move in a straight line. In aerospace, this type of motion is found in many systems, both inside and outside the aircraft or spacecraft. It's used in machines that build aerospace parts and in the vehicles themselves. h3>What Is Linear Motion Technology? /h3> a href="https://zoke-automation.com/blog/linear-motion/something-about-linear-motion/"
