Satellite alignment around Andromeda galaxy defies cosmological models
Monday, 14 April 2025 11:01
New research from the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam (AIP) has revealed a striking anomaly in the satellite galaxy system surrounding Andromeda (M31), casting doubt on long-held assumptions within standard cosmology. The study, published in Nature Astronomy, shows that more than 80% of Andromeda's dwarf galaxy companions are clustered on one side of the host galaxy-a configuration pr Research reveals gravitational forces may be dismantling Milky Way's small neighbor
Monday, 14 April 2025 11:01
A new study led by researchers at Nagoya University has uncovered compelling evidence that the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), one of the Milky Way's closest galactic neighbors, may be undergoing gravitational disruption caused by its larger companion, the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The findings, based on the motion of thousands of massive stars, suggest that tidal forces from the LMC are pulli Katy Perry set to roar into space on all-female flight

LUNA’s virtual leap towards the Moon
Monday, 14 April 2025 06:25
Rough terrain, deep shadows and blinding light – training for lunar missions means facing an environment unlike anything on Earth. At the ESA-DLR LUNA analogue facility, virtual reality (VR) technology makes it possible for astronauts to immerse themselves in a 360-degree simulation of the lunar surface without leaving the ground.
Space Collision Threat Fuels Urgency in Orbital Safety Market
Monday, 14 April 2025 02:22
A new analysis from Novaspace, a prominent space sector consultancy, warns that the rapidly expanding satellite population is pushing orbital collision risk toward a critical tipping point. To confront this growing challenge, the firm has launched its inaugural Space Situational and Domain Awareness (SSDA) Market Intelligence Report.

Monday, 14 April 2025 02:22
The Expedition 72 team aboard the International Space Station (ISS) closed out their week with a focus on spacesuit enhancements and critical biomedical research. As one group adjusted to the rigors of microgravity, another prepared for their journey home after months in orbit.
NASA astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers spent Friday outfitting two spacesuits with newly installed displa NASA extends seat barter agreement with Roscosmos into 2027

NASA and Roscosmos have extended a seat barter agreement for flights to the International Space Station into 2027 that will feature longer Soyuz missions to the station.
Massive black hole 'waking up' in Virgo constellation
Sunday, 13 April 2025 10:48
A massive black hole at the heart of a galaxy in the Virgo constellation is waking up, shooting out intense X-ray flares at regular intervals that have puzzled scientists, a study said Friday.
Astronomers previously had little reason to pay any attention to galaxy SDSS1335+0728, which is 300 million light years from Earth.
But in 2019, the galaxy suddenly started shining with a brightnes Vast to Collaborate with CASIS on ISS Research Access
Sunday, 13 April 2025 08:11
Vast, a leader in orbital habitation systems, has finalized a strategic partnership with the Center for the Advancement of Science in Space (CASIS) to enable new research initiatives aboard the International Space Station (ISS) National Laboratory. This collaboration strengthens Vast's standing in NASA's private astronaut mission (PAM) ecosystem and underscores its dedication to advancing space- Chinese study reveals lower water content in lunar farside mantle
Sunday, 13 April 2025 08:11
Chinese researchers analyzing rock samples from the Chang'e-6 lunar mission have determined that the Moon's farside mantle holds significantly less water than the nearside. The study, led by Prof. HU Sen of the Institute of Geology and Geophysics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, sheds new light on the internal structure and evolution of the Moon.
