Electron rain: Researchers reveal the source of a mysterious space event
Scientists used a NASA-funded CubeSat to reveal a phenomenon that sees super-fast energetic electrons rain down over Earth, a press statement reveals.
Scientists from the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) observed the rain, called "electron precipitation," from low-Earth orbit during the Electron Losses and Fields Investigation, or ELFIN, mission.
Microgravity: The Commercial Case for R&D
What's the big deal about microgravity? It's basically just extended free fall in low Earth orbit, but the physics create a unique environment that enables manufacturing that could not happen on Earth. This is a huge advantage to biomedical, agricultural and other industries.
