Curiosity Shakes Loose a Pesky Rock

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY After NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover drilled a sample from this rock on April 25, 2026, it withdrew its robotic arm and pulled the entire rock off the surface with it. Engineers spent several days repositioning the arm and vibrating the drill to try and get the rock loose. When itContinue reading “Curiosity Shakes Loose a Pesky Rock”

Hubble Sights Galaxy in Transition

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY This NASA Hubble Space Telescope image reveals an enigmatic galaxy with a bright center and a face that hints at spiral structure, yet it holds no obvious spiral arms. Reddish-brown clumps and filaments of dust partially obscure the galaxy’s full face, while red, blue, and orange light from distant galaxiesContinue reading “Hubble Sights Galaxy in Transition”

NASA Draws on Industry for Mars Telecommunications Network

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY On Thursday, NASA issued a Request for Proposal (RFP), seeking industry collaboration for the Mars Telecommunications Network. Reliable, high bandwidth communications is necessary to relay science data, high-definition imagery, and critical information during Mars missions. The network will use high-performance Mars telecommunications orbiters at the Red Planet to support futureContinue reading “NASA Draws on Industry for Mars Telecommunications Network”
