official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Selim ShahriarNorthwestern University, Evanston Progress in physics has largely been driven by the development and verification of new theories that unify different fundamental forces of nature. For example, Maxwell revolutionized physics with his unified theory of electricity and magnetism, and the Standard Model of particle physics provides a consistent descriptionContinue reading “SUPREME-QG: Space-borne Ultra-Precise Measurement of the Equivalence Principle Signature of Quantum Gravity”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Ryan WeedHelicity Space LLC This proposal aims to revolutionize space exploration by developing a constellation of spacecraft powered by the Helicity Drive, a compact and scalable fusion propulsion system. This innovative technology will enable rapid, multi-directional exploration of the heliosphere and beyond, providing unprecedented insights into the Sun’s vast influenceContinue reading “Fusion-Enabled Comprehensive Exploration of the Heliosphere”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Ben HockmanNASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory A basketball-sized towbody containing a camera, atmospheric sampling instruments, and support hardware is suspended on a multi-kilometer tether from a high-altitude balloon in the Venusian atmosphere, allowing it to peer beneath the dense cloud layer and image the surface at high resolution. The towbody harvestsContinue reading “TOBIAS: Tethered Observatory for Balloon-based Imaging and Atmospheric Sampling”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Marco QuadrelliNASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory There is a strong coupling mechanism between the lithosphere, ionosphere, magnetosphere, atmosphere, and the plasmasphere of many planetary bodies. For example, the ionosphere has been shown to respond to space weather events induced by Solar activity, as well as to atmospheric events, and events inContinue reading “PULSAR: Planetary pULSe-tAkeR”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY John MatherNASA Goddard Space Flight Center We will design the first family of ISEE’s (Inflatable Starshade for Earthlike Exoplanets) with sizes from 35 to 100 m diameter. A starshade would enable any telescope to observe exoplanets, a top priority for astronomy worldwide. Compared with other starshade concepts, we aim forContinue reading “Inflatable Starshade for Earthlike Exoplanets”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Kimberly WeaverNASA Goddard Space Flight Center Some of the most enigmatic objects in the Universe are giant supermassive black holes (SMBH). Yet after 30 years of study, we don’t know precisely how these objects produce their power. This requires observations at X-ray wavelengths. The state-of-the-art for X-ray images is ChandraContinue reading “Beholding Black Hole Power with the Accretion Explorer Interferometer”

En el año 2024, la temperatura promedio de la superficie de la Tierra fue la más cálida que se haya registrado, según un análisis liderado por científicos de la NASA. “Una vez más, se ha batido el récord de temperatura: 2024 fue el añoContinue reading “Aumentan las temperaturas: La NASA confirma que el 2024 fue el año más cálido registrado”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY As NASA celebrates 55 years since the historic Apollo 11 crewed lunar landing, the agency also is preparing new navigation and positioning technology for the Artemis campaign, the agency’s modern lunar exploration program. A technology demonstration helping pave the way for these developments is the Lunar GNSS Receiver Experiment (LuGRE)Continue reading “NASA and Italian Space Agency Test Future Lunar Navigation Technology”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY The trip to Mars and back is not one for the faint of heart. We’re not talking days, weeks, or months. But there are technologies that could help transport a crew on that round-trip journey in a relatively quick two years. One option NASA is exploring is nuclear electric propulsion,Continue reading “Nuclear Electric Propulsion Technology Could Make Missions to Mars Faster”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY A suborbital rocket is scheduled to launch from NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia during a window extending from Monday, Jan. 13, through Thursday, Jan. 16. This launch supports the Missile Defense Agency, Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme Division’s White Sands Detachment, and other Department of Defense organizations. No real-timeContinue reading “NASA Wallops to Support January Sounding Rocket Launch”
