ESA/Hubble published a new image of NGC 346 as the first installment in the series. Now, theyContinue reading “Hubble Provides New View of Galactic Favorite”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY A NASA-supported commercial space station, Blue Origin’s Orbital Reef, recently completed a human-in-the-loop testing milestone as the agency works toward developing commercial space stations in low Earth orbit. The human-in-the-loop test scenarios utilized individual participants or small groups to perform day-in-the-life walkthroughs in life-sized mockups of major station components. ParticipantsContinue reading “NASA Sees Progress on Blue Origin’s Orbital Reef Design Development”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY This article is for students grades 5-8. Aerodynamics is the way objects move through air. The rules of aerodynamics explain how an airplane is able to fly. Anything that moves through air is affected by aerodynamics, from a rocket blasting off, to a kite flying. Since they are surrounded by air,Continue reading “What Is Aerodynamics? (Grades 5-8)”
