A New Hope? Taming the Satellite Swarm
Going by the paperwork, 1 million satellites are headed for the skies. The question is, how many of these are real? New policy may help stem the tide.
Powerful new radio telescope could unmask the ancient universe — if satellites don't ruin the view
When complete, the Square Kilometer Array Observatory (SKAO) will be the world's most powerful radio telescope — if SpaceX's Starlink satellites don't ruin its view.
The Orionid meteor shower peaks this weekend. Here's how to see it
During the third week of October, the meteor display spawned by the debris shed by Halley reaches its peak: The Orionid meteor shower.
NASA's Artemis moon astronauts may wear electric field spacesuits to fight pesky lunar dust
NASA wants to put astronauts on the moon again in the 2020s, and lunar dust is expected to pose a major issue. An electric field spacesuit project received a big grant to find a solution.
A mud lake on Mars might be hiding signs of life in chaotic terrain
Martian biosignatures might be lurking in an ancient mud lake on the Red Planet, a new study suggests. But a landing mission is needed to confirm the satellite study.
This Week's Sky at a Glance, October 20 – 29
The waxing Moon in the evening sky visits Saturn, then Jupiter. And as Halloween approaches, Arcturus becomes the Ghost of Summer Suns.
Earth from Space: Panama Canal

NASA tests new kind of Artemis moon-rocket engine in dramatic 'hot fire' test (video)
NASA wants to fly a better design of engine for its upcoming Artemis moon missions. The first of a 12-part series of engine tests kicked off Oct. 17 with a firing that lasted for more than nine minutes.
Snake-like magnetic fields on the sun bring scientists closer to solving a major solar mystery
Magnetic snake-like energy patterns could bring scientists a step closer to solving a lingering solar mystery: how the outer atmosphere of the sun can be tremendously hotter than its lower layers.
The search for extraterrestrial intelligence gets a new home at Oxford
The Breakthrough Listen initiative has moved its headquarters to the U.K. to take advantage of the reams of data set to come from the Square Kilometer Array.
Juno Completes its Closest Flyby of Io Yet
Jupiter’s ocean moons capture most of our attention because of their potential habitability. But Io, Jupiter’s bad-boy volcanic moon, is in a class of its own. There’s nothing else like it in the Solar System, and NASA’s Juno spacecraft captured new images of the volcanic satellite during its closest approach yet.
Thinking About Time Travel Helps Solve Problems in Physics
Time travel. We’ve all thought about it at one time or another, and the subject has been explored extensively in science fiction. Once in a while, it is even the subject of scientific research, typically involving quantum mechanics and how the Universe’s four fundamental forces (electromagnetism, weak and strong nuclear forces, and gravity) fit together. In a recent experiment, researchers at the University of Cambridge showed that by manipulating quantum entanglements, they could simulate what could happen if the flow of time were reversed.
Record-breaking radio burst could help us find the universe's missing matter
An 8 billion-year-old Fast Radio Burst could help astronomers solve the mystery of the universe's missing matter.
James Webb Space Telescope spots jet stream on Jupiter stronger than a Category 5 hurricane
The JWST's perspective on our solar system has offered us the 1st evidence of a superfast Jovian jet stream.

The three companies who have flown people to space and back, Blue Origin, SpaceX and Virgin Galactic, joined two experts at a Congressional hearing to press for regulatory improvements, warning the U.S. risks losing its lead in spaceflight.
There are 14,000 Potentially Hazardous City-Killing Asteroids Left to Find
Everyone likes a cool infographic, right? Does that statement hold even if the infographic points out a gap in our knowledge that could kill millions of people? Because that’s what a cool-looking infographic NASA released on October 16th does.
Could Neptune's largest moon swing a spacecraft into the planet's orbit?
Researchers have shared a radical new idea for how to put a spacecraft in orbit around Neptune: Use the thin atmosphere of Triton, Neptune's largest moon, to capture it.
Ultra-powerful plasma 'blades' could slice entire stars in half, new paper suggests
Stars could be sliced in half by "relativistic blades," or ultra-powerful outflows of plasma shaped by extremely strong magnetic fields, an unpublished paper claims.
