Private Athena moon lander arrives in Florida ahead of SpaceX launch on Feb. 26 Scientists discover new, 3rd form of magnetism that may be the 'missing link' in the quest for superconductivity European 'Swarm' satellites detect electric currents from the ocean's tides Space mining company Astro...
Phobos and Deimos are so small that even in large skywatching telescopes they appear as mere points of light. Phobos, the larger of the two measures 14 miles (23 km) across, while Deimos is just 8 miles (13 km) wide. Both satellites revolve around Mars in nearly circular orbits and als...
Get to know what can be seen tonight from your location with theVisible Tonight section. There you’ll find planets, constellations, satellites, DSOs, and other sky objects, including the time of their visibility. Visible Tonight also hasStargazing Index and Weather Forecast predicting the condition...
Because of its size, nearly eight meters across, the massive telescope could also lead to the discovery of dimmer objects in the night sky, he said. The plan is for the telescope to start recording in 2023. And with plans for thousands of satellites, Fienberg said it's hard to ...
Earth's atmosphere at the Earth's mean distance from the Sun. Satellites have been used to accurately measure the solar constant, obtaining a value off⊙=1366.2Wm−2, where the power of one watt is equivalent to one joule per second and the uncertainty in this measurement is ±1.0Wm...

Therefore, we cannot really know the exact impact it will have on Earth until it reaches some of our outermost satellites which are located about a million miles from Earth's surface. This gives us less than an hour's "heads up" as to the exact magnitude and impact of each wave of CME...
Back in 2003, we had flares intense enough to cause some damage to orbiting satellites and space shuttles. As of now, it is believed that there has not been a big enough ejection from AR3664 to cause any major communication issues.
Starlink’s 40,000 satellites in orbit—1,000 of which astronomers have already criticized for obstructing the night sky—will be enough to register as a megastructure that will eventually appear on some faraway civilization’s radar, writes Zaza Osmanov, a professor of astrophysics at the ...
from the infrared imagers onboard geostationary satellites to the short-range numerical weather prediction both on the synoptic- and meso-scales, where accurate quantification of the bias and observation error arising from the numerical model and the instrument is a key component in such experiments....
