official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image depicts the cosmic tangle that is MCG+05-31-045, a pair of interacting galaxies located 390 million light-years away and a part of the Coma galaxy cluster. The Coma Cluster is a particularly rich cluster that contains over a thousand known galaxies. Amateur astronomers can easilyContinue reading “Hubble Takes a Look at Tangled Galaxies”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Spaceflight accelerates the symptoms of aging in astronaut bodies by inducing genomic instability, mitochondrial dysfunction, and increased inflammation. This is the first study to comprehensively examine biomarkers and pathways associated with spaceflight and terrestrial aging, frailty, and sarcopenia. Main Findings: Impact: This work reveals the need for a frailty indexContinue reading “Aging and Fragility Biomarkers are Altered by Spaceflight”

Both countries signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding Thursday that includes safety training, a joint feasibility study for the potential campaign, and technicalContinue reading “NASA, Peru Agree to Study Potential Sounding Rocket Campaign”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY In the unforgiving lunar environment, the possibility of an astronaut crewmember becoming incapacitated due to unforeseen circumstances (injury, medical emergency, or a mission-related accident) is a critical concern, starting with the upcoming Artemis III mission, where two astronaut crewmembers will explore the Lunar South Pole. The Moon’s surface is litteredContinue reading “South Pole Safety: Designing the NASA Lunar Rescue System”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY One year ago today, the future of space communications arrived at Earth as a beam of light from a NASA spacecraft nearly 10 million miles away. That’s 40 times farther than our Moon. That’s like using a laser pointer to track a moving dime from a mile away. That’s prettyContinue reading “Precision Pointing Goes the Distance on NASA Experiment”
