Dr. Sian Proctor is a Solar System Ambassador, a geoscientist, and an astronaut. Proctor took her Solar System Ambassador patch with her when she piloted the first all-civilian mission to orbit Earth in September 2021.
Volunteers with the program, which is managed by JPL, share the latest updates from scientists and engineers working at the leading edge of NASA's solar system exploration.
Net Metering Solar Power System
Australians are among the world’s leaders in embracing solar energy and have the best solar energy conditions. Solar panels are productive all year round due to the year-round availability of sunlight.
A two-way reading is provided via net metering. It can record how much solar energy you use and feed it into the grid. If you had a net metre to take advantage of solar feed-in tariffs, it could calculate how much you owe for the grid.
Metro/Tube-style maps for delta-v needed to get between objects in the solar system #Space ...
Inspired by Kerbal Space Program charts of the delta-v needed to get between points in space, Wikipedia user Cmglee has made a chart for the solar system in the style of a metro train / London Tube map.
The numbers indicate the number of meters per second needed to get from one point to another. To know how much change in velocity is needed to get from Earth to Mars, just add up the numbers between the two planets.
NASA seeks origin of 'weird' fast-spinning dwarf planet Haumea | Space
The origins of a dwarf planet that lurks at the outer edge of the solar system that has become one of its strangest objects may have been revealed by NASA scientists.
Haumea is around the size of fellow dwarf planet Pluto and is located in the Kuiper belt , a collection of icy debris and cometary bodies out past the orbit of Neptune — the solar system 's outermost planet.
Scientists spot the ghost of a giant star bigger than solar system
NASA Prepares to Say 'Farewell' to InSight Spacecraft
A closer look at what goes into wrapping up the mission as the spacecraft's power supply continues to dwindle.
Using the camera on its robotic arm, NASA's InSight lander took these selfies on Dec. 6, 2018 – just 10 days after touchdown on Mars – and April 24, 2022. A thick layer of dust can be seen on the lander and its solar panels in the latter image. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech
Singapore startup looks to shine light on solar energy affordability | ZDNET
Solar AI Technologies is looking to drive the installation of solar panels amongst households in Singapore, where adoption of the renewable energy has remained low.
Solar AI's rent-to-own model lets homeowners pay a monthly fee to tap solar energy, without having to pay any upfront cost to install or maintain the panels.
Enhancing the safety of ground-mount and carport solar installations with MLPE | Solar Builder
Rooftop solar safety has changed rapidly in recent years fueled by a combination of regulation and innovation.
The past decade has been a transformative one for the solar industry. Demand has increased exponentially, driven in equal measure by the desire to act more responsibly and sustainably, and due to the economic advantages, made possible with years of technological advancements, that it can achieve.
