A troubling shift in Europe’s forest carbon balance
Europe’s forests play a crucial role in removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, but research led by the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre has found their capacity to absorb carbon dioxide has declined in the past decade.

Webb traces details of complex planetary nebula
More than one star contributes to the irregular shape of NGC 6072 – Webb’s newest look at this planetary nebula in the near- and mid-infrared shows what may appear as a very messy scene resembling splattered paint. However, the unusual, asymmetrical scene hints at more complicated mechanisms underway, as the star central to the scene approaches the very final stages of its life and expels shells of material, losing up to 80 percent of its mass.

Mapping for the Moon Galileo enhances security edge with new authentication service led by GMV
The European Union Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA) has officially activated Galileo's new Open Service Navigation Message Authentication (OSNMA), bolstering the system's capability to combat signal spoofing and data tampering.
OSNMA functions by digitally signing navigation signals, allowing users to authenticate data as genuinely transmitted by Galileo. This advancement is especial Greenland subglacial flood bursts through ice sheet surface
Using data from several Earth-observing satellites, including ESA’s CryoSat and the Copernicus Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 missions, scientists have discovered that a huge flood beneath the Greenland Ice Sheet surged upwards with such force that it fractured the ice sheet, resulting in a vast quantity of meltwater bursting through the ice surface.
Bridges gain new voice through real time GNSS monitoring of structural behavior
Researchers have unveiled a real-time structural monitoring system that uses Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) technology to track both displacement and orientation in long-span bridges. This integrated approach marks a significant improvement over traditional systems that focus solely on movement and miss subtle rotational changes indicative of early structural stress.
The new met York launches BARD satellite to advance real time intersatellite communications
York Space Systems has successfully launched its BARD mission, marking a key milestone in the evolution of next-generation satellite communications. The spacecraft lifted off from Vandenberg Space Force Base on July 23 and achieved full operational status with first-contact success and healthy systems on orbit.
