official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Researchers at NASA’s Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, have developed a technique to test long, flexible, composite booms for use in space in such a way that gravity helps, rather than hinders, the process. During a recent test campaign inside a 100-foot tower at a NASA Langley lab, researchersContinue reading “NASA Langley Uses Height, Gravity to Test Long, Flexible Booms”

Cosmic Dawn is the incredible true story of the James Webb Space Telescope – humanity’s largest and most powerful space telescope –Continue reading “Cosmic Dawn Screening”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image offers us the chance to see a distant galaxy now some 19.5 billion light-years from Earth (but appearing as it did around 11 billion years ago, when the galaxy was 5.5 billion light-years away and began its trek to us through expanding space). Known as HerSContinue reading “Hubble Images Galaxies Near and Far”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Scientists have discovered a star behaving like no other seen before, giving fresh clues about the origin of a new class of mysterious objects. As described in our press release, a team of astronomers combined data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and the SKA [Square Kilometer Array] Pathfinder (ASKAP) radioContinue reading “Eccentric ‘Star’ Defies Easy Explanation, NASA’s Chandra Finds”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY How do we do research in zero gravity? Actually when astronauts do experiments on the International Space Station, for instance, to environment on organisms, that environment is actually technically called microgravity. That is, things feel weightless, but we’re still under the influence of Earth’s gravity. Now, the very microgravity thatContinue reading “How Do We Do Research in Zero Gravity? We Asked a NASA Expert: Episode 62”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Solar radio bursts, intense blasts of radio emission associated with solar flares, can wreak havoc on global navigation systems. Now, as part of the Ground Radio Lab campaign led by the University of Michigan and NASA’s SunRISE (Sun Radio Interferometer Space Experiment) mission, which is managed by the agency’s JetContinue reading “Summer Students Scan the Radio Skies with SunRISE”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY NASA-supported commercial space station, Vast’s Haven-1, recently completed a test of a critical air filter system for keeping future astronauts healthy in orbit. Testing confirmed the system can maintain a safe and healthy atmosphere for all planned Haven-1 mission phases. Testing of the trace contaminant control system was completed at NASA’sContinue reading “NASA Helps with Progress on Vast’s Haven-1 Commercial Space Station”
