official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Total solar eclipses reveal the Sun’s outer atmosphere – the corona – a white, wispy halo of solar material that flows out from around the Sun. This atmosphere is breathtaking as it glows in the sky for viewers on Earth, surrounding the dark disk of the Moon. In addition to revealingContinue reading “Meet the Creators, Part 4: Two New 2024 Total Eclipse Posters”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Media are invited to speak with the four Artemis II astronauts on Wednesday, Feb. 28, at Naval Base San Diego in California. The crew will fly around the Moon next year as part of NASA’s Artemis campaign, marking the first astronauts to make the journey in more than 50 years.Continue reading “NASA Invites Media to Speak with Artemis II Moon Crew, Recovery Team”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has found the best evidence yet for emission from a neutron star at the site of a recently observed supernova. The supernova, known as SN 1987A, was a core-collapse supernova, meaning the compacted remains at its core formed either a neutron star or a blackContinue reading “Webb Finds Evidence for Neutron Star at Heart of Young Supernova Remnant”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY While the International Space Station orbited 260 miles above the East China Sea, NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli snapped this photo of Shanghai’s city lights and the Huangpu River flowing through downtown. Shanghai is the most populous city in China with a population of about 24.9 million. The space station servesContinue reading “Shanghai from Space”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Engineering is a huge field with endless applications. From aerospace to ergonomics, engineers play an important role in designing, building, and testing technologies all around us. We asked three engineers at NASA’s Ames Research Center in California’s Silicon Valley to share their experiences, from early challenges they faced in theirContinue reading “Math, Mentorship, Motherhood: Behind the Scenes with NASA Engineers”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Launching a rocket to the Moon takes perseverance and diligence. Josh Whitehead – a world-class engineer, race-winning long-distance runner, and father – knows that it also takes a good attitude. “Positive energies are vital, particularly when working through challenges,” Whitehead says. “Challenges are opportunities to learn and grow. There’s alwaysContinue reading “I Am Artemis: Josh Whitehead”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY By Celine Smith As NASA continues its exploration of the solar system, including future crewed missions to Mars, experts in the agency’s Office of Planetary Protection are developing advanced tactics to prevent NASA expeditions from introducing biological contaminants to other worlds. At NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama,Continue reading “NASA’s Planetary Protection Team Conducts Vital Research for Deep Space Missions”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY In the Pose Bowl: Spacecraft Detection and Pose Estimation Challenge, solvers will help NASA develop algorithms that could be run on inspector (chaser) spacecraft. There are two tracks, with different associated prizes. In the Detection Track, solvers develop object detection solutions that identify the boundaries of spacecraft in an image.Continue reading “Pose Bowl: Spacecraft Detection and Pose Estimation Challenge”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY NASA will conduct an RS-25 hot fire Friday, Feb. 23, moving one step closer to production of new engines that will help power the agency’s SLS (Space Launch System) rocket on future Artemis missions to the Moon and beyond. Teams at NASA’s Stennis Space Center near Bay St. Louis, Mississippi,Continue reading “NASA to Continue Testing for New Artemis Moon Rocket Engines”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Supersonic flight became a reality in October 1947, when the Bell X-1 rocket plane broke the sound barrier. NASA’s Lewis Research Center in Cleveland (now, NASA Glenn), which had served as the agency’s aeropropulsion leader since it was established in the 1940s, subsequently helped NASA advance the technology needed toContinue reading “NASA Center Boosted YF-12 Supersonic Engine Research”
