Abu Dhabi: DhabiSat, a cube satellite (CubeSat) made by students at Khalifa University of Science and Technology (KUST), is now orbiting the Earth after leaving the International Space Station (ISS), the Abu Dhabi-based university announced on Tuesday.
According to KUST, the deployment of DhabiSat "marks another milestone event for the UAE". It is the second CubeSat designed and built by KUST students at Yahsat Space Lab.
Astronomers finally uncover 40-year mystery of Jupiter's epic X-ray aurora
In a recent study published in the journal Science Advances , researchers detail the process, which includes electrically charged ions, responsible for the X-rays, "surfing" electromagnetic waves in the planet's magnetic field down into its atmosphere.
Of all the light shows detected at the poles of seven planets in our solar system, Jupiter's are the most powerful, and the only ones produced by a gas giant.

A sustainable use of space | Science
Last month, at the G7 Leaders' Summit in Cornwall, United Kingdom, the leading industrial nations addressed the sustainable and safe use of space, making space debris a priority and calling on other nations to follow suit.
There are more than 28,000 routinely tracked objects orbiting Earth. The vast majority (85%) are space debris that no longer serve a purpose. These debris objects are dominated by fragments from the approximately 560 known breakups, explosions, and collisions of satellites or rocket bodies.
