Open-source clock framework aims to synchronize deep space missions
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Nov 15, 2025
Vartis Space Corp. has introduced the Vartis Space Clock, an open-source framework that enables independent synchronization of zero-time reference points for space operations without relying on Earth-based signals.
The company describes the clock framework as a step toward establishing a temporal infrastructure that supports satellites, lunar operations, and missions throughout the Solar S

A galaxy with earliest star signatures found during cosmic noon
Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Nov 15, 2025
Researchers led by the Department of Astronomy at Tsinghua University have identified a galaxy labeled CR3, which shows evidence of containing stars from the earliest phase of the universe. The team used data from the James Webb Space Telescope, the Very Large Telescope, and the Subaru Telescope to examine CR3. It is situated almost 11.5 billion years in the past, at the epoch known as cosmic no

Reading a quantum clock costs more energy than running it, study finds
Oxford UK (SPX) Nov 15, 2025
A study led by the University of Oxford has identified a surprising source of entropy in quantum timekeeping - the act of measurement itself. In a study published 14 Nov in Physical Review Letters, scientists demonstrate that the energy cost of reading a quantum clock far outweighs the cost of running it, with implications for the design of future quantum technologies.

Chandrayaan-3 lunar mission achieves key flyby milestones
Sydney, Australia (SPX) Nov 15, 2025
Chandrayaan-3 was developed to demonstrate the capability for a controlled lunar landing, enable rover mobility on the Moon, and facilitate in-situ research. The mission includes a lander module, propulsion module, and rover. The satellite launched aboard LVM3 from SDSC SHAR, Sriharikota, on July 14, 2023.
Following its lunar touchdown on August 23, 2023, the propulsion module maintained l

ESA pinpoints 3I/ATLAS's path with data from Mars
Paris, France (ESA) Nov 14, 2025
Since comet 3I/ATLAS, the third known interstellar object, was discovered on 1 July 2025, astronomers worldwide have worked to predict its trajectory. ESA has now improved the comet's predicted location by a factor of 10, thanks to the innovative use of observation data from our ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) spacecraft orbiting Mars.
