Strange source of water on the moon connected to Earth’s magnetic shield
High-energy electrons found in a tail of plasma near Earth appear to have been a source of water throughout the moon, according to a new study. The discovery was made by researchers from the University of Hawaii at Manoa‘s School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology led by scientist Shuai Li. Their findings could […]

THREE IN ONE GO: Huge solar eruption hits Earth, the moon and Mars all at once for the first time in history
A solar storm hit the planet Earth, its moon and the neighboring planet Mars all at the same time – the first time that such an explosion was immediately measured on three planetary surfaces. While the solar storm was identified on Oct. 28, 2021, scientists who studied the event only reported their findings recently. The October 2021 […]

Newly discovered exoplanet appears to have nuclear fusion taking place in its core
An international team of scientists recently discovered an exoplanet that seems to have nuclear fusion ongoing in its core. Using direct imaging provided by the European Space Agency’s Gaia spacecraft, the team headed by Sasha Hinkley of the University of Exeter in England found the exoplanet orbiting approximately 300 million miles away from the star HD 206893. […]

Study on Mars suggests water has been present on rocky planets from the start
A recent study published in the journal Science Advances suggests that water may have emerged naturally on rocky planets instead of originating from asteroids or comets. Researchers from France, Denmark and Japan studied a meteorite from Mars nearly as old as the solar system. Based on the rock fragments that constitute the meteorite, the researchers found that water, […]

Scientists use nanoparticles as an alternative propulsion method for small spacecraft
Propellant is one of the most important things that any spacecraft needs to carry – without it, a spacecraft will be unable to move or change course. This is why spacecraft tend to carry a lot of it on board. Carrying propellant, however, brings its own set of problems. Not only is the chemical highly flammable, […]

Astronomers discover more stars exhibiting unusual light fluctuations
A strange, dimming star may not be alone after a scientist discovered more stars that are possibly displaying unusual light fluctuations. Some of the stars are dimming rapidly while some are dimming at slower rates, which is similar to Boyajian’s star — a star that dips in brightness for days or weeks at a to,e before […]

What are traveling-wave tubes and how important are they in space exploration?
Telecommunications and space exploration owes a lot to the traveling-wave tube. Invented in the 1950s, the simple and unassuming electron device has performed its job so well that modern-day space probes and satellites still use it for long-range communications. Abbreviated as TWT — and read as the rather rude “twit” – the traveling-wave tube is a vacuum tube […]

Scientists develop a self-cleaning spacesuit that can get rid of hyper-abrasive space dust
When humans return to the Moon or finally touch down on Mars, their spacesuits are going to get dusty really quickly. And the particulate matter found in those environments feature very rough surfaces that can quickly wear out even the durable material used for protective gear. These so-called “space dust” ended up this way because their home […]
