Science and technology, explained simply
A photo of the “grave” of the Russian station was published. The U.S. National Space Agency (NASA) has published fresh images of the moon’s surface, which showed the appearance of a new crater. According to scientists, this crater could have been caused by the crash of the Russian Luna-25 spacecraft. A message about this observation […]
TransAstra signed a contract with NASA for $850 thousand. to create a prototype bag for capturing space debris in orbit. The developer plans to go much further than collecting and burning garbage in the Earth’s atmosphere. Together with ThinkOrbital, he plans to create a factory complex in orbit to recover and recycle the collected garbage […]
NASA has captured an image of a black hole tearing apart a large star as a result of a “tidal event,” as astronomers call it. This is a greatly enlarged version of the effect in which the moon’s gravity causes tides in the ocean on Earth, the Mirror reports. The black hole was named ASASSN-14li. […]
After India became the first country to land a device near the South Pole of the Moon, a spacecraft is planned to be launched to view the Sun This was reported by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO). “The launch of Aditya-L1, India’s first space-based observatory for studying the Sun, is scheduled for September 2,” […]
On Sunday, August 27, the SpaceX Crew-7 Dragon spacecraft, launched as part of NASA’s space mission, docked with the space station with four astronauts on board This was reported by NASA. “Docking confirmed for Crew-7! At 16:16 hours, the Dragon spacecraft with four space travelers on board arrived at the ISS,” the statement said. Hear […]
A SpaceX rocket has sent a new crew to the space station, which will arrive there on Sunday, August 27. Four astronauts from four countries flew on the Crew Dragon spacecraft to the International Space Station (ISS) on the morning of Saturday, August 26. The ship was launched into space by a Falcon 9 rocket […]
Following the successful landing of the Chandrayaan-3 mission on the Moon, the Indian Space Research and Development Organization (ISRO) has released the first photo of the Earth’s satellite. ISRO announced this on the social network X. The image shows part of the Chandrayaan-3 landing site, as well as the leg and shadow of the lander. […]
About 2,500 light-years away are the remnants of a dying star in the shape of a ring, forming a nebula with the same name – and now, new photos from the James Webb Telescope allow us to see it in more detail. The Ring Nebula, also called NGC 6720 and Messier 57, is a gaseous […]
Astronomers were able to find a star in the Universe that is used to generate tsunamis whose height is more than three times the diameter of the Sun. What is known 30 years ago, scientists discovered the MACHO 80.7443.1718 system, which consists of two stars. Now it has become known that huge tsunamis are passing […]
The sun is becoming increasingly restless before its peak, thus increasing the likelihood of a major “storm” – a rare but very dangerous phenomenon that, according to NASA, can “cripple economies and jeopardize human safety.” Three different solar events can send high-speed particles that affect the Earth’s magnetic fields: solar flares, coronal holes, or coronal […]
