official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY An experimental technique rescued a camera aboard the agency’s Juno spacecraft, offering lessons that will benefit other space systems that experience high radiation. The mission team of NASA’s Jupiter-orbiting Juno spacecraft executed a deep-space move in December 2023 to repair its JunoCam imager to capture photos of the Jovian moonContinue reading “NASA Shares How to Save Camera 370-Million-Miles Away Near Jupiter”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY On July 19, 2013, NASA’s Cassini spacecraft had a rare opportunity to image Saturn and, far in the background, Earth. This image spans about 404,880 miles (651,591 kilometers) across. With the Sun’s powerful and potentially damaging rays eclipsed by Saturn itself, Cassini’s onboard cameras were able to take advantage ofContinue reading “The Day Earth Smiled”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Data from NISAR will map changes to Earth’s surface, helping improve crop management, natural hazard monitoring, and tracking of sea ice and glaciers. A new U.S.-India satellite called NISAR (NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar) will provide high-resolution data enabling scientists to comprehensively monitor the planet’s land and ice surfaces like neverContinue reading “5 Things to Know About Powerful New U.S.-India Satellite, NISAR”

That love of the game eventually led them to settle in Houston about eight years ago – a choice that helped lead Staggs to NASA’s Johnson SpaceContinue reading “Catherine Staggs: Advancing Artemis Through Contracting Expertise”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY NASA’s Athena Economical Payload Integration Cost mission, or Athena EPIC, is a test launch for an innovative, scalable space vehicle design to support future missions. The small satellite platform is engineered to share resources among the payloads onboard by managing routine functions so the individual payloads don’t have to. ThisContinue reading “NASA Tests Scalable Satellite Tech to Launch Sensors Quicker”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Written by Alex Innanen, Atmospheric Scientist at York University Earth planning date: Wednesday, July 16, 2025 As we hoped, we successfully climbed the 11-meter ramp (about 36 feet) and have arrived at the top of the ridge and the start of the main boxwork region. This means we’re moving intoContinue reading “Curiosity Blog, Sols 4602-4603: On Top of the Ridge”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY In the vacuum of space, where temperatures can plunge to minus 455 degrees Fahrenheit, it might seem like keeping things cold would be easy. But the reality is more complex for preserving ultra-cold fluid propellants – or fuel – that can easily overheat from onboard systems, solar radiation, and spacecraftContinue reading “Stay Cool: NASA Tests Innovative Technique for Super Cold Fuel Storage”

These cyclists need gear that adapts to the different environments they encounter. One company is using a material with NASA origins to ensure these athletesContinue reading “NASA-Derived Textiles are Touring France by Bike”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY A massive, spacetime-warping cluster of galaxies is the setting of today’s NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image. The galaxy cluster in question is Abell 209, located 2.8 billion light-years away in the constellation Cetus (the Whale). This Hubble image of Abell 209 shows more than a hundred galaxies, but there’s more to thisContinue reading “Hubble Snaps Galaxy Cluster’s Portrait”
