Their return marked the resounding success of the first manned spaceflight mission after the China Space Station entered its application and development stage and lasted for 154 days in space.
The taikonauts safely and smoothly exited the return capsule in good health by 9:10 am, the China Manned Space Agency (CMSA) said.
The U.S. government and dozens of foreign allies have pledged never to pay ransom demands in a bid to discourage financially motivated hackers and ransomware gangs profiteering from cyberattacks.
The joint pledge was announced during the third annual meeting of the International Counter Ransomware Initiative, or CRI, a U.S.-led cyber coalition that aims to enhance international cooperation to combat the growth of ransomware.
On Nov. 1, NASA's Lucy spacecraft flew by not just its first asteroid, but its first two. The first images returned by Lucy reveal that the small main belt asteroid Dinkinesh is actually a binary pair.
This encounter primarily served as an in-flight test of the spacecraft, specifically focusing on testing the system that allows Lucy to autonomously track an asteroid as it flies past at 10,000 mph, referred to as the terminal tracking system.
The nation's space development program is to receive an additional NT$40 billion (US$1.23 billion) in funding, President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) said yesterday in a speech at the opening of the Taiwan International Assembly of Space Science, Technology and Industry in Taipei.
The launch of Taiwan's first domestically produced weather satellite, Triton, earlier this month proves that the nation not only has advantages in semiconductors and precision manufacturing, but also the ability to enter the global space industry, Tsai said.
In the vast expanse of the universe, there are countless mysteries waiting to be unraveled. One of the most intriguing questions that has captivated astronomers for centuries is whether we are alone in the cosmos.
Machine learning, a branch of artificial intelligence, involves the development of algorithms that enable computers to learn and make predictions or decisions without being explicitly programmed.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT), Beijing's ministry overseeing the country's industrial sector, published a nine-page guideline on its website on Thursday, saying that China's humanoid robots should "realise mass production by 2025".
MIIT said China would aim to "establish a humanoid robot innovation system, make breakthroughs in several key technologies and ensure the safe and effective supply of core components" by 2025.
The biggest question that astronomers want to find answers to is are we alone in the universe? A new discovery has raised the curiosity even more.
In a groundbreaking revelation, Nasa's retired Kepler space telescope has unveiled a sweltering system of seven planets, each receiving more radiant heat from their host star than any planet in our solar system.
China's Shenzhou 16 astronauts landed safely on Earth this week despite an apparent hole appearing in their return capsule's parachute.
China Central Television (CCTV) aired video of the descent of Shenzhou 16 on Monday (Oct. 30) as the crewed spacecraft returned to Earth following five months in orbit docked with the Tiangong space station .
NASA’s Lucy spacecraft is about to make its very first flyby of an asteroid on Wednesday, Nov. 1.
When Lucy flies past the half-mile-wide asteroid, named Dinkinesh , the moment will mark the start of the probe's 12-lear-long tour of 10 asteroid subjects.
Since the Soviets launched the first satellite in 1957, humans have put tens of thousands of objects in Earth's orbit.
Each dot represents one of 9,000 satellites orbiting the Earth. They enable modern necessities such as cell phone signals, GPS and high-speed internet.
Ibadan, 30 October 2023. – The Governments of Australia and the United States of America have signed an agreement formalizing the Technology Safeguards Agreement between both countries.
The TSA will consequently help Australia’s domestic launch sector and spaceports to grow. This is as Australia expects US space launches on Australian soil to create new high-skilled tech jobs and supply chains.
BleepingComputer reports that Israeli companies had their Linux systems subjected to attacks involving the new BiBi-Linux wiper malware amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestinian military group Hamas.
Rapid advancements in artificial intelligence have prompted United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres to create a global advisory panel to tackle AI governance, as well as its opportunities, risks, and challenges, according to The Associated Press.
Researchers have utilized infrared survey data to refine the asteroid's size and surface brightness in support of the Nov. 1 encounter by NASA's Lucy mission.
NASA's Lucy mission will soon have its first asteroid encounter as the spacecraft travels through deep space en route to Jupiter's orbit.
According to new research we can start writing the eulogy for four exoplanets around a Sun-like star about 57 light years away. But there’s no hurry; we have about one billion years before the star becomes a red giant and starts to consume them.
The star is Rho Coronae Borealis, a yellow dwarf star like our Sun. It’s in the constellation Corona Borealis, and has almost the same mass, radius, and luminosity as the Sun.
Years after the alleged UFO crash in Norway, a video showing an unidentified object being retrieved from water has baffled social media users.
Fueling rumors about aliens and spacecrafts, the unverified video on TikTok has raised numerous questions about an incident that's believed to have occurred in 1946 or 1947.
We are witnessing a revolution in our knowledge of other worlds, planets orbiting stars far away from our Solar System. Once the stuff of imagination and speculative fiction , we now can state with confidence that most stars have planets orbiting them.
Planets don't shine, of course, and are overwhelmed by their star's brightness. So, the techniques to hunt for exoplanets rely on indirect methods. Because planets affect the stars they orbit, we can look for those effects to find them.
The Russian APT28 hacking group (aka 'Strontium' or 'Fancy Bear') has been targeting government entities, businesses, universities, research institutes, and think tanks in France since the second half of 2021.
The Russian hackers have been compromising peripheral devices on critical networks of French organizations and moving away from utilizing backdoors to evade detection.
The study detailing Kamo'oalewa's categorisation as a lunar object has been published in the journal Nature .
The October 23 study describes a feasible way that an ancient asteroid impact could have shunted the space rock onto its current trajectory and suggests there could be more moon chunks floating around the solar system.

Despite the fact that we’ve discovered thousands of them, exoplanets are hard to find. And some types are harder to find than others. Naturally, some of the hardest ones to find are the ones we most want to find. What can we do?
Scientists have four methods of detecting exoplanets. The transit method is the most prolific, but there’s also the radial velocity method, astrometry, and, of course, direct imaging.
