With lunar orbiter, South Korea will join a revived race to explore the Moon | Science | AAAS
If all goes well next week, South Korea will join the small number of countries to have sent spacecraft to the Moon—and scientists around the world are looking forward to the results.
The $200 million KPLO will launch on a SpaceX Falcon-9 rocket from Cape Canaveral on 2 August. It should enter a polar orbit 100 kilometers above the lunar surface and conduct observations for at least a year.

The James Webb Space Telescope may have just found its first supernova
Astronomers spotted something unusual happening in a distant galaxy in recent images from the James Webb Space Telescope — something that wasn't there when Hubble last looked at the same galaxy.
What's New – Engesser and his colleagues say the bright object is probably the first supernova spotted by the Webb Telescope. It's extremely bright compared to the rest of the galaxy, for one thing.

Twin Voyager probes nearing 45th birthdays and hard decisions | Space
On August 20, 1977, NASA's Voyager 2 spacecraft launched to space. Its twin, Voyager 1, launched 16 days later.
But each Voyager spacecraft is powered by a finite nuclear energy source, and both sources are dwindling to dangerously low levels.
"It takes about 200 watts, approximately, to run the transmitter on the spacecraft, to be able to send signals back to Earth , and we're at a power level currently where we only have about five to six watts of power margin on each spacecraft," Voyager Interstellar Mission project manager ...
Brilliant fireball explodes high in Texas night s: video | Space
Nearly 600 people saw a bright fireball break up over Texas on Sunday night (July 24), and some have even heard its sonic boom indicating pieces of the rock may have reached Earth.
