As intentional and unintentional interference with GPS grows worldwide, researchers have shown that radio signals from commercial low Earth orbit (LEO) internet constellations such as Starlink and OneWeb can provide an alternative source of navigation and positioning, especially in regions where GNSS performance is degraded. The new work indicates that passively received LEO signals can be turne

The NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope has confirmed the source of a super-bright flash of light known as a gamma-ray burst, generated by an exploding massive star when the Universe was only 730 million years old. For the first time for such a remote event, the telescope provided a detection of the supernova’s host galaxy. Webb’s quick-turnaround observations verified data taken by telescopes around the world that had been following the gamma-ray burst since it onset, which occurred in mid-March.
