A United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket carrying an advanced new weather satellite for the United States is rolling out to its launch pad today and you can watch a video replay from its morning trip.
The Atlas V rocket is carrying the GOES-T weather satellite for NASA and NOAA to its pad at Space Launch Complex 41 of Florida's Cape Canaveral Space Force Station for a planned launch on Tuesday (March 1). Liftoff is set for 4:38 p.m. EST (2138 GMT).
How Space Weather Impacts Radio Communication and Navigation Satellite
Professor Ir Dr Mardina Abdullah, Deputy Director of the Institute for Climate Change and associate fellow of Space Science Centre at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) has embarked on a space weather research to determine its risk to various technologies, particularly those that rely on
Space weather refers to activities that occur in the upper layers of the Earth's atmosphere at altitudes greater than 50 kilometres above the Earth's surface.
China's new-generation rocket launches 22 satellites into space - SCIENCE News
China's new Long March-8 rocket placed 22 satellites in space on Sunday, setting a domestic record for the most spacecraft launched by a single rocket.
The rocket blasted off at 11:06 a.m. (Beijing Time) at the Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site in the southern Hainan Province before sending the satellites into pre-set orbits, state-run Xinhua news agency reported.

Venus' extreme surface heat drives swirling winds in upper atmosphere, study finds | Space
Scientists have shown how the swirling winds and searing heat on Venus work together in a revealing new study.
The surface of Venus is hot enough to melt lead with temperatures averaging 872 degrees Fahrenheit (467 degrees Celsius). This extreme heat is maintained by a thick atmosphere of carbon dioxide that traps the heat on the planet in a greenhouse effect .

In particular, missions planners and engineers are investigating Directed Energy (DE) propulsion, where laser arrays are used to accelerate light sails to relativistic speeds (a fraction of the speed of light).
The study was conducted by Ho-Ting Tung , an aerospace engineering grad student from UCLA, and assistant professor Artur R. Davoyan , both of whom are members of the Davoyan Research Group (DRG), of which Prof. Davoyan is the founder.

The first detector to be calibrated is the Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam), which can detect wavelengths just outside of the visible spectrum and offers a clearer image than cameras that only detect visible light.
The remaining detectors will collect the light that passes through the NIRCam and record the wavelengths for image outputting. Once all detectors are fully functional, NASA operators will test the 17 observation modes on reference objects with known brightness and position.
