official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY NASA has released a new proposal opportunity for industry to tap into agency know-how, resources, and expertise. The Announcement of Collaboration Opportunity (ACO), managed by the Space Technology Mission Directorate, enables valuable collaboration without financial exchanges between NASA and industry partners. Instead, companies leverage NASA subject matter experts, facilities, software,Continue reading “NASA Releases Opportunity to Boost Commercial Space Tech Development”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY NASA/Lori Losey The best way to solve a mystery is by gathering evidence and building a case. That’s exactly what NASA researchers are doing with a series of research flights aimed at advancing a sensor for supersonic parachutes. The clues they find could help make these parachutes more reliable andContinue reading “NASA Tests Epic Solution for Supersonic Parachute Deliveries”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Carrying an advanced radar system that will produce a dynamic, three-dimensional view of Earth in unprecedented detail, the NISAR (NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar) satellite has launched from Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh, India. Jointly developed by NASA and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), and a criticalContinue reading “NASA-ISRO Satellite Lifts Off to Track Earth’s Changing Surfaces”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Since their discovery in the late 1700s, astronomers have learned that planetary nebulae, or the expanding shell of glowing gas expelled by a low-intermediate mass star late in its life, can come in all shapes and sizes. Most planetary nebula present as circular, elliptical, or bi-polar, but some stray fromContinue reading “NASA’s Webb Traces Details of Complex Planetary Nebula”
