official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY The JSC toxicologists establish guidelines for safe and acceptable levels of individual chemical contaminants in spacecraft air (SMACs) and drinking water (SWEGs) in collaboration with the National Research Council’s Committee on Toxicology (NRC COT) and through peer-reviewed publication.  The framework for establishing these levels is documented for SMACs and SWEGs, and recent refinementsContinue reading “Exposure Guidelines (SMACs and SWEGs)”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY All 10 instruments aboard NASA’s newly launched IMAP (Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe) mission have successfully recorded their first measurements in space. With these “first light” observations, the spacecraft is now collecting preliminary science data as it journeys to its observational post at Lagrange point 1 (L1), about 1 millionContinue reading “NASA’s IMAP Mission Captures ‘First Light,’ Looks Back at Earth “

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Scientists using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope have observed a rare type of exoplanet, or planet outside our solar system, whose atmospheric composition challenges our understanding of how it formed.  Officially named PSR J2322-2650b, this Jupiter-mass object appears to have an exotic helium-and-carbon-dominated atmosphere unlike any ever seen before. SootContinue reading “NASA’s Webb Observes Exoplanet Whose Composition Defies Explanation”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Notice ID: M2M-MSFC-0001 NAICS Codes: NASA seeks industry-led architecture concept development, concept refinement studies, and risk-reduction activities that address Moon to Mars Architecture gaps through the Next Space Technologies for Exploration Partnerships-3 (NextSTEP-3). NASA plans to release this solicitation — NextSTEP-3 Appendix B: Moon to Mars Architectural Studies — nearContinue reading “NextSTEP-3 B: Moon to Mars Architecture Studies”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Lee esta nota de prensa en español aquí. Our universe is filled with galaxies, in all directions as far as our instruments can see. Some researchers estimate that there are as many as two trillion galaxies in the observable universe. At first glance, these galaxies might appear to be randomly scatteredContinue reading “NASA’s Roman Telescope Will Observe Thousands of Newfound Cosmic Voids”
