Earth planning date: Friday, September 8, 2023: Curiosity continues its bumpy travels across the bedrock blocks this weekend. We got the good news this morning that we would be able to safely do contact science in the plan! This means that we have a very familiar weekend plan - contact science on the first sol, a drive on the second sol, and remote science on the third sol. We've had this

On Sept. 10, NASA's OSIRIS-REx spacecraft briefly fired its ACS (attitude control system) thrusters to point itself toward Earth, putting it on course to release its sample capsule, carrying rocks and dust from asteroid Bennu, from 63,000 miles (or 102,000 kilometers) above Earth's surface on Sunday, Sept. 24. Yesterday's trajectory-correction maneuver changed the spacecraft's velocity abo

Ann Arbor MI (SPX) Sep 12, 2023 As the universe evolves, scientists expect large cosmic structures to grow at a certain rate: dense regions such as galaxy clusters would grow denser, while the void of space would grow emptier. But University of Michigan researchers have discovered that the rate at which these large structures grow is slower than predicted by Einstein's Theory of General Relativ
