Lockheed Martin debuts Lamprey undersea mission vehicle
Lockheed Martin has introduced the Lamprey Multi Mission Autonomous Undersea Vehicle, a new submersible designed to give US and allied naval forces a flexible and persistent presence in contested waters.
The company describes LampreyMMAUV as a plug and play platform that can attach to existing surface ships or submarines without requiring host modifications, recharge its batteries using bu New axis grid links complex earth data in space and time
A new axis based grid model illustrates how independent spatial, temporal, and parametric axes can be combined to describe complex earth observation data sets in a single coherent framework.
The representation separates space, time, and measured parameters into distinct axes, then aligns them in a unified grid that can accommodate a wide range of satellite and in situ measurements collecte Satellite study revises methane loss high in Earth atmosphere
Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas that traps heat efficiently in Earth atmosphere, and scientists estimate that it accounts for about 30 percent of modern global warming despite being less abundant than carbon dioxide. Observations show that methane levels have risen over time, but researchers still lack clarity about why the rate of accumulation changes from year to year.
Methane remai When Earth's magnetic field took its time flipping
Earth's magnetic field is generated by the churn of its liquid nickel-iron outer core, but it is not a constant feature.
Every so often, the magnetic north and south poles swap places in what are called geomagnetic reversals, and the record of these flips is preserved in rocks and sediments, including those from the ocean floor. These reversals don't happen suddenly, but over several thous ESA marks International Day of Women and Girls in Science 2026
