Rare gigantic jet captured from ISS by NASA astronaut
Thursday, 21 August 2025 06:22
NASA astronaut Nichole Ayers photographed a rare gigantic jet on July 3, 2025, while aboard the International Space Station. Initially thought to be a sprite, analysis confirmed it was an even rarer Transient Luminous Event (TLE).
"Gigantic jets are a powerful type of electrical discharge that extends from the top of a thunderstorm into the upper atmosphere," explained Dr. Burcu Kosar, Pri CO2 increase to reshape geomagnetic storm impacts on satellites
Thursday, 21 August 2025 06:22
Rising carbon dioxide levels in Earths upper atmosphere will alter how geomagnetic storms influence satellite operations, according to new research from the U.S. National Science Foundation National Center for Atmospheric Research (NSF NCAR), with implications for thousands of spacecraft that depend on stable orbital conditions.

Thursday, 21 August 2025 06:22
The complex and turbulent Galactic Center has long challenged astronomers attempting to model its underlying physics. Now, new measurements of the magnetic field in Sagittarius C, a region within the Central Molecular Zone of the Milky Way, are offering unprecedented insight into the interplay between dense clouds, massive star formation, and magnetic structures.
