This week we look at how the elimination of science programs, projects, datasets, and funding may be shaping into an extinction-level event for US Space-related sciences. Come cry with us.
A radio-loud magnetar first observed in March suffered an apparent identity crisis, behaving like a pulsar until gradually settling into magnetar-like emissions in July.
Let’s take a fast-paced journey through all that’s new in space and astronomy, including dark energy news, the death of supersymmetry, a closer look at remoting sensing in Earth science, and tales from the launch pad.
Let’s take a fast-paced journey through all that’s new in space and astronomy, including new results from Perseverance Rover, Venusian Volcanism, Mars Sample Return (or not), Intuitive Machines’ failure to land upright
Time for news in space and astronomy, lets deep dive into Mars science. Also DESI takes a census of central black holes & star formation
A survey of the stellar nursery in the Orion Nebula Cluster provides evidence that stars compete for material and their size.
Using data provided by the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 citizen science project, volunteers found a possible large planet or brown dwarf orbiting its star.
The formation of rocky worlds from dust particles containing ice and carbon, increasing the possibility of aquatic planets similar to Earth.
Let’s take a fast-paced journey thru all that’s new in space and astronomy, including a potentially killer asteroid, a new look at the history of Earth’s water, and a mini-quasi-moon.
Contrary to the destructive role supermassive black holes are thought to play in the lives of stars, it turns out that certain types of galaxies benefit from black holes clearing the way and keeping star formation going.
