Bioastronomy from space may be regarded as the set of technologies enabling humankind to get ``clean'' radio signals from the galactic environment. This signal detection from space may be achieved in three ways: i) By large space antennas orbiting the Earth (like the VSOP/HALCA mission). ii...
The point we have reached was imagined half a century ago by Marshall McLuhan, who effectively invented modern media studies and gave us the concepts of "acoustic space" and, through his influence on Walter Ong, the "secondary orality" of the electronic media. It was McLuhan (1962) who ...

When Will the James Web Space Telescope Be Launched? The concept of a space telescope such as the JWST was suggested in a scientific workshop in 1989. In 1993, a committee was named by a Space Telescope Institute panel to oversee development of 21st century missions regarding space and astron...

NASA astronauts consume irradiated meat to prevent foodborne illnesses while in space. This process sterilizes the meat, ensuring it is safe for consumption during space missions....

Hall-type and gridded ion thrusters are among the most advanced, mature EP technologies with space-proven, relatively long flight heritage; some prominent EP-driven missions are described in more detail below. Specifically, a Hall-type thruster is a device that uses the closed electron drift, so...
