The Arctic, once again at the forefront of climate change, is experiencing disproportionately higher temperature increases compared to the rest of the planet, triggering a series of cascading effects known as Arctic amplification. As concerns continue to grow, satellites developed by ESA have become indispensable tools in understanding and addressing the complex dynamics at play and the far-reaching consequences for the environment and human societies.
A robotic Russian cargo craft will launch toward the International Space Station on Wednesday (May 24), and you can watch the liftoff live.
After almost seventy years of study, astronomers are still fascinated by active galactic nuclei (AGN), otherwise known as quasi-stellar objects (or “quasars.”) These are the result of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at the center of massive galaxies, which cause gas and dust to fall in around them and form accretion disks. The material in these disks is accelerated to close to the speed of light, causing it to release tremendous amounts of radiation in the visible, radio, infrared, ultraviolet, gamma-ray, and X-ray wavelengths. In fact, quasars are so bright that they temporarily outshine every star in their host galaxy’s disk combined.
Getting the Celestron PowerSeeker for $50 is a low-risk investment on a reliable telescope for those looking to take their first steps into stargazing.
Virgin Galactic has released a video introducing the public to the pilots who fly the company's VSS Unity space plane, which is gearing up for its final test flight.
NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter has spotted the final resting place of a private Japanese moon lander that failed in its touchdown attempt last month.
A mobile shipping platform in the Gulf of Mexico sent out the first rockets to suborbital space from U.S. territorial waters. The Spaceport Company is aiming for orbital launches next.
SpaceX is joining the FAA to fight a lawsuit brought by environmental groups, which claim the agency didn't properly assess the damage the company's Starship rocket could cause.
Jupiter’s moon Io is the most volcanic world in the Solar System, with over 400 volcanoes. Some of them eject plumes as high as 500 km (300 mi) above the surface. Its surface is almost entirely shaped by all this volcanic activity, with large regions covered by silicates, sulphur, and sulphur dioxide brought up from the moon’s interior. The intense volcanic activity has created over 100 mountains, and some of them are taller than Mt. Everest.
Skywatchers can watch the moon get close to the solar system's hottest planet Venus on Tuesday (May 23) thanks to a free telescope livestream.
The next space-themed Lego set is actually two spacecraft in one, Technic-ally speaking. The Lego Technic NASA Mars Rover Perseverance set recreates the wheeled explorer and its Ingenuity helicopter.
The world's largest solar telescope has captured the sun's fine features in remarkable detail, including rare glimpses of dying sunspots.
NASA's Juno spacecraft has spotted short bursts that make up lightning bolts on Jupiter, showing that Jovian lightning works in much the same way as it does on Earth.
You can either start your stargazing journey for under $80 or grab something a little more powerful and save over $110.
Astronomers have observed an unusual supernova, in which a helium star fed a white dwarf until it exploded.
The European Space Agency has been hosting a series of robotic teleoperation experiments where an astronaut abroad the ISS controls a robot back on the ground. We’ve previously reported on some of their successes. Now it’s time for the next round of experiments, with one individual astronaut on the ISS controlling four separate robots to perform a task back on Earth.
The moon and Mars will dance together in the night sky both tonight (May 23) and Wednesday night (May 24).
