Pluto Flyby Confirmed: Signal Received From New Horizons
History has been made. Mission control received the confirmation signal at 8:52:37PM EST, New Horizons had successful Pluto Flyby. More details include when we will see more spectacular images.
God Bless Pluto: New Horizons To Resume Regular Operations On July 7!
All science operation will resume on 7th July, and NASA has confirmed its not going to affect any primary objectives of the New Horizons’ Pluto mission.
2014 Was Indeed The Warmest Year In 4000 Years!
So, now we all should feel proud? We are part of history! Or do you think its time to take it more seriously? Work on decreasing carbon emission, better use of energy, work on alternatives, save the forest, plant more tree? Otherwise if we keep making this type of record soon there will be no one left to celebrate!
NASA Plans To Use Human Waste To Power Rockets
Human waste can be used in many things. The buzzing news is space agency NASA has planned to use human waste to power rockets!
See A Lunar Eclipse From Mercury Orbit, Thanks To MESSENGER
You might have watched solar eclipse or lunar eclipse from Earth’s surface. Now, lets watch a lunar eclipse that was occurred on October 8 from Mercury’s orbit, thanks to space agency NASA’s robotic spacecraft MESSENGER.
NASA Unveils World’s Largest Spacecraft Welding Tool, Made To Create World’s Largest Rocket
Space agency NASA is preparing itself to build a brand new and the world’s largest rocket called the Space Launch System (SLS) whose sound during launch may annihilate surrounding buildings. And to build this largest rocket, NASA has made the world’s largest spacecraft welding tool and lately, the agency has just unveiled it.
Curiosity Finally Arrived At The Base Of Mount Sharp
Space agency NASA is now in a very jolly mode. Why? Because after two years of driving and drilling on Mars, Curiosity has finally arrived at the base of Mount Sharp, at the center of Gale Crater.
NASA To Launch 3D Printer To ISS First Time On September 19
Space agency NASA has created a 3D printer in collaboration with Mountain View, California-based company Made in Space Inc. This 3D printer has the size of a small microwave and is mainly designed as a proof of concept to see if printing in zero gravity can create objects that are as accurate and as strong as those produced by a printer on Earth.
NASA To Reformat Mars Rover Opportunity’s Memory From Earth
Like any computer on Earth, long-duration space robots’ memories sometimes need to be reformatted. This is certainly the case for NASA’s Mars exploration rover Opportunity that has had more than its fair share of computer glitches recently. So now, NASA has decided to reformat Opportunity’s memory from Earth.
NASA Building World’s Largest Rocket, Its Sound During Launch May Annihilate Buildings
Space agency NASA is building a brand new and the world’s largest rocket called the Space Launch System (SLS). Its engines are highly powerful. NASA engineers have figured out that surrounding buildings may knock down when the rocket would launch from its pad.
NASA Placing A Tiny 3D Printed Space Camera Into CubeSats
NASA is experimenting with small space cameras made almost entirely of 3D printed parts. The technology the agency is using is a bit different from the 3D printing you might be familiar with if you’ve used consumer printers. Like 3D printing with exuded plastic, the pieces are built layer by layer, from the bottom up.
NASA Reveales Why The Sun’s Atmosphere Is So Much Hotter Than Its Surface
Although scientists have discovered that Sun’s atmosphere is so much hotter than its surface long ago, they couldn’t show any strong evidence of that statement. But now, scientists at NASA have produced a strongest evidence that explains why the Sun’s atmosphere is several hundred times hotter than its surface.
Congratulation To The MESSENGER Team For 10th Anniversary of Launch!
We congratulate the MESSENGER team on their successful 10 year. Here is a nice infographic and video shared by the Team itself.
MESSENGER Going Closer And Closer To Mercury
Ever since NASA’s robotic spacecraft MESSENGER entered into Mercury’s orbit, it’s been studying the planet’s chemical composition, geology, and magnetic field. And now, it’s been reported that MESSENGER is going closer to Mercury than ever before to study the planet more deeply.
Cassini Found 101 Geysers, Water Coming Upward From Enceladus’s Underground
Space agency NASA’s spacecraft Cassini has already revealed amazing details of Saturn and its Moons. Now, Cassini has spotted 101 geysers through which water is coming upward from Saturn’s ice moon Enceladus’s underground.
