official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY NASA has awarded a task order modification to the Aerospace Testing and Facilities Operations and Maintenance (ATOM-5) contract to Jacobs Technology Inc., of Tullahoma, Tennessee, to provide the agency’s Ames Research Center in California’s Silicon Valley, with an upgrade to the center’s Unitary Plan Wind Tunnel main drive speed controlContinue reading “NASA Ames Awards Task Order Modification for Wind Tunnel Upgrades “

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Astronomers using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope have found a rare event in an oddball place. It’s called a fast radio burst (FRB), a fleeting blast of energy that can – for a few milliseconds – outshine an entire galaxy. Hundreds of FRBs have been detected over the past few years.Continue reading “Hubble Finds Weird Home of Farthest Fast Radio Burst”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY La NASA anunció el martes cambios en las próximas misiones Artemis, que sentarán las bases para la exploración científica a largo plazo de la Luna, el aterrizaje de la primera mujer y la primera persona no blanca en la superficie lunar, y la preparación de expediciones con seres humanos aContinue reading “La NASA comparte avances sobre las primeras misiones lunares Artemis con tripulación”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY For the first time, astronomers have combined data from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and James Webb Space Telescope to study the well-known supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A). This work has helped explain an unusual structure in the debris from the destroyed star called the “Green Monster,” because of itsContinue reading “A “Green Monster” Lurks in Star’s Debris”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY NASA announced Tuesday updates to its Artemis campaign that will establish the foundation for long-term scientific exploration at the Moon, land the first woman and first person of color on the lunar surface, and prepare for human expeditions to Mars for the benefit of all. To safely carry out theseContinue reading “NASA Shares Progress Toward Early Artemis Moon Missions with Crew”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Infrared emission from methane suggests atmospheric heating by auroral processes. Astronomers using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope have found a brown dwarf (an object more massive than Jupiter but smaller than a star) with infrared emission from methane, likely due to energy in its upper atmosphere. This is an unexpectedContinue reading “NASA’s Webb Finds Signs of Possible Aurorae on Isolated Brown Dwarf”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Yes, the universe IS talking to you! Gamma-ray bursts, massive explosions visible from everywhere in the observable universe, are telling us something about how stars end their lives and how massive black holes form. Now astronomers are asking you join the Burst Chaser project to read the signals from these bursts andContinue reading “Be a Burst Chaser and Witness the Most Powerful Explosions in the Universe!”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY This image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope features a richness of spiral galaxies: the large, prominent spiral galaxy on the right side of the image is NGC 1356; the two apparently smaller spiral galaxies flanking it are LEDA 467699 (above it) and LEDA 95415 (very close at its left) respectively; and finally, IC 1947Continue reading “Hubble Views a Vast Galactic Neighborhood”
