Pinpointing the exact location where Aeolus reentered our atmosphere is not easy, as no one was there to witness it. "and that's exactly what we wanted," explains Mission Manager Tommaso Parrinello. "The goal of this first-of-its-kind assisted reentry was to guide Aeolus on a safe final path, where it would disintegrate in Earth's atmosphere as far as possible from inhabited regions."

Sometimes, the best place to hide a secret is in broad daylight. Just ask the sun. "The sun is more surprising than we knew," said Mehr Un Nisa, a postdoctoral research associate at Michigan State University. "We thought we had this star figured out, but that's not the case." Nisa, who will soon be joining MSU's faculty, is the corresponding author of a new paper in the journal Physi

Paris (ESA) Aug 04, 2023
A solar eruption detected simultaneously at Earth, the Moon and Mars emphasises the need to prepare human exploration missions for the dangers of space radiation. A coronal mass ejection erupted from the Sun on 28 October 2021 and was spread over such a wide area that Mars and Earth, while on opposite sides of the Sun and around 250 million kilometres apart, received an influx of energetic parti

Birmingham UK (SPX) Aug 04, 2023
An international team of scientists have discovered an unusual Jupiter-sized planet orbiting a low-mass star called TOI-4860, located in the Corvus constellation. The newly discovered gas giant, named TOI-4860 b, is an unusual planet for two reasons: stars of such low mass are not expected to host planets like Jupiter, and the planet appears to be particularly enriched by heavy elements.

Earth planning date: Wednesday, August 2, 2023: We don't have a lot of power to play with today, so we have to be careful about how much time we give the different activities. As Arm Rover Planner, I got to sequence the contact science activities today. We start this two-sol plan with a nap to save up power. After waking up in the afternoon, we do a short block of imaging.

On Aug. 5, NASA's Curiosity rover will notch its 11th year on Mars by doing what it does best: studying the Red Planet's surface. The intrepid bot recently investigated a location nicknamed "Jau" that is pockmarked with dozens of impact craters. Scientists have rarely gotten a close-up view of so many Martian craters in one place. The largest is estimated to be at least as long as a basketball c
