Littleton CO (SPX) Sep 04, 2023
Ten Lockheed Martin-built (NYSE: LMT) satellites have been deployed into low-Earth orbit (LEO) in support of the Space Development Agency's (SDA) Tranche 0 Transport Layer (T0TL) mission. SDA's T0TL is a proliferated LEO constellation that will demonstrate low-latency communication and provide a resilient network of integrated capabilities.

Miami FL (UPI) Aug 31, 2023
Twenty-two new Starlink Internet satellites started orbiting the Earth after a successful launch by SpaceX late Thursday night from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. The satellites, part of the constellation being created by SpaceX to provide Internet access even in the most remote locations on the globe, were taken into space by the workhorse Falcon 9 rocket at 10:21 p.m. EDT.

Unprecedented gamma-ray burst explained by long-lived jet
Write a comment
Evanston IL (SPX) Sep 04, 2023
Last year, Northwestern University researchers reported new observational evidence that long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) can result from the merger of a neutron star with another compact object (either another neutron star or black hole) - a finding that was previously believed to be impossible. Now, another Northwestern team offers a potential explanation for what generated the unprecedented

Paris, France (ESA) Sep 04, 2023
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has launched its Aditya-L1 solar observatory from Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota Range (SDSC SHAR), India, at 11:50 IST (08:20 CEST) on 2 September 2023. It's an ambitious mission that will generate vast quantities of science data as the spacecraft balances in an unstable orbit. With its global network of deep space ground stations a

Hot Jupiter blows its top

Austin TX (SPX) Sep 04, 2023
A planet about 950 light years from Earth could be the Looney Tunes' Yosemite Sam equivalent of planets, blowing its atmospheric 'top' in spectacular fashion. The planet called HAT-P-32b is losing so much of its atmospheric helium that the trailing gas tails are among the largest structures yet known of an exoplanet, a planet outside our solar system, according to observations by astronome

New giant planet evidence of possible planetary collisions

Bristol UK (SPX) Sep 04, 2023
A Neptune-sized planet denser than steel has been discovered by an international team of astronomers, who believe its composition could be the result of a giant planetary clash. TOI-1853b's mass is almost twice that of any other similar-sized planet known and its density is incredibly high, meaning that it is made up of a larger fraction of rock than would typically be expected at that sca
