NASA's Artemis II Communication Network: Utilizing the Near Space and Deep Space Networks for lunar missions, integrating laser communication tests for enhanced data transfer, and overcoming challenges like the 41-minute blackout when Orion passes behind the Moon, with future plans for a lunar relay network to ensure continuous contact.
Is Dark Matter real, or is our understanding of gravity wrong? A new study suggests gravity itself might change shape at cosmic distances.
For decades, astronomers have observed that galaxies spin too fast. According to Newton's laws, stars on the edges should fly off into space, yet they hold together. To explain this, physics postulated Dark Matter—invisible mass holding galaxies together.
For decades, astronomers have observed that galaxies spin too fast. According to Ne
For 50 years, we thought we knew Jupiter's size. New radio data from the Juno spacecraft has just rewritten the textbooks.
Since the Voyager missions of the 1970s, our understanding of Jupiter's shape has been based on just six measurements. Now, researchers at the Weizmann Institute of Science have used 26 new measurements from NASA's Juno spacecraft to create the most precise model of the gas giant ever made.
Toxic soil on Mars was supposed to kill our building bacteria. Instead, it made them build stronger.
Mars is covered in Perchlorate, a toxic salt that poses a major challenge for future colonizers. Scientists at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) feared this chemical would kill the bacteria needed to manufacture "biocement" bricks from Martian soil.
