Experts say Australia's complete reliance on data from foreign-owned satellites – used every day by all Australians – in weather forecasting, resource and water management, and disaster response applications poses a significant sovereign risk.
Earth observation (EO) data and the services derived from it are also essential for activities such as measuring and mitigating climate change and maintaining and improving food and energy production and distribution, and mapping land use, all of which contribute to sustainable economic growth

Air Force Research Lab pushes new Space Force tack on hybrid architecture
WASHINGTON — The Air Force Research Laboratory's new space-focused technology executive expects the science and technology community to play a key role in helping the Space Force accelerate its shift toward more hybrid, resilient architectures.
The lab in November named Andrew Williams its deputy technology executive officer for space science and technology — a new job meant to improve integration across its air and space portfolios and to ensure the lab has a single point of contact for space S&T.
SETI Institute Teams Up to Help Students Design Science Program for Sky-Monitoring Telescope Based
January 18, 2022, Mountain View, CA – The SETI Institute teamed up with Louisiana State University (LSU) and Mississippi State University (MSU) to help students design the science program for AstronetX PBC's first lunar-based camera (L-CAM 1).
L-CAM1 will capture images for research in astrophysics, planetary science and planetary defense. Dr. Franck Marchis, a senior planetary astronomer at the SETI Institute, leads the SETI Institute's involvement. In addition to Marchis, Dr. Tabetha Boyjian (LSU) leads the science team with Dr.
Here's how the James Webb Space Telescope is aligning its mirrors in deep space | Space
The James Webb Space Telescope continues to fine-tune its mirrors to ultimately peer into the deep and distant universe.
The telescope launched Dec. 25 with the 18 hexagonal segments of its primary mirror and its secondary mirror folded up and stowed so that the components would survive the rigors of liftoff.
Highfield Drill Hole
This image shows the Highfield drill hole made by NASA's Curiosity rover as it was collecting a sample on "Vera Rubin Ridge" in Gale Crater on Mars. Drill powder from this hole was enriched in carbon-12. The image was taken by the Mars Hand Lens Imager on Dec.
Curiosity was built by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California. Caltech in Pasadena, California, manages JPL for NASA. JPL manages Curiosity's mission for NASA's Science Mission Directorate in Washington. MAHLI was built by Malin Space Science Systems in San Diego.
