Citizen Scientists Will Be Part of New Cosmic Cataclysms Science Program
Although typically invisible to the naked eye, the night sky is always ablaze with high-energy explosions from the universe's most exotic events. Unistellar/SETI Institute citizen astronomers can now bring these cosmic explosions into view with a new Cosmic Cataclysms science program.
James Webb Space Telescope Operations Update – James Webb Space Telescope
The James Webb Space Telescope resumed science operations Dec. 20, after Webb's instruments intermittently went into safe mode beginning Dec. 7 due to a software fault triggered in the attitude control system, which controls the pointing of the observatory.
The observatory and instruments are all in good health, and were not in any danger while Webb's onboard fault management system worked as expected to keep the hardware safe. The team is working to reschedule the affected observations.
Can space-based solar power really work? Pros and cons. | Space
Beaming solar power from space used to be considered science fiction. But in recent years, space agencies from all over the world have launched studies looking at the feasibility of constructing orbiting power plants for real.
Such projects would be challenging to pull off, the stakeholders agree, but as the world's attempts to curb climate change continue to fail, such moonshot endeavors may become necessary.
How artificial intelligence is helping us explore the solar system | Space
Last week at the 2022 American Geophysical Union (AGU) Fall Meeting, planetary scientists and astronomers discussed how new machine-learning techniques are changing the way we learn about our solar system , from planning for future mission landings on Jupiter's icy moon Europa to ...
One example is identifying boulders in pictures of other planets. For a few rocks, it's as easy as saying "Hey, there's a boulder!" but imagine doing that thousands of times over. The task would get pretty boring, and eat up a lot of scientists' valuable work time.
James Webb Space Telescope's 1st year in space has blown astronomers away | Space
Just one year after launch, the James Webb Space Telescope is exceeding all expectations, and astronomers are thrilled.
However, the complexity of the James Webb Space Telescope (Webb or JWST), including its fold-out, segmented 21-foot (6.5 meters) mirror and its delicate sun-shield the size of a tennis court, meant that astronomers were on tenterhooks as to whether the JWST would perform as hoped.
Engineers Work on Lunar Trailblazer's HVM³ Imaging Spectrometer
Engineers work on the High-resolution Volatiles and Minerals Moon Mapper (HVM³) for NASA's Lunar Trailblazer spacecraft in a clean room at Lockheed Martin Space in Littleton, Colorado, shortly after the instrument was delivered there in December 2022.
HVM³ is one of two instruments that will be used by the mission to detect and map water on the Moon's surface to determine its abundance, location, form, and how it changes over time.
What are sundogs and how do they form? | Space
A sundog is a concentrated patch of sunlight that is occasionally seen to the right or the left of the sun or even on both sides of our star in the sky simultaneously.
Also called mock suns or parhelia, meaning "with the sun ," according to the National Weather Service (opens in new tab) . Sundogs are part of a family of atmospheric optical illusions including moon haloes and the closely related sun haloes.
