Astronauts · VaughanThe term “astronaut” comes from the Greek words meaning “star navigator.” It refers primarily to people who have been sent as crew for NASA spacecraft (The National Center for Aeronautics and Space Administrationthe name of the American space agency). But a crew member may be named differently depending on his nationality. Thus we can talk about an astronaut for the Russians, an astronaut for the Chinese, or an astronaut for the French. And f…See the Story

Scientists at the University of Surrey have devised a method to chart the most efficient routes for spacecraft, mirroring the way drivers use sat-nav to navigate on Earth. This new technique harnesses mathematics to outline potential paths from one orbit to another, sidestepping the need for extensive computational resources or trial-and-error approaches.

SpacecraftWhen NASA's New Horizons spacecraft flew over Pluto in 2015, the first images it sent to Earth contained an unexpected surprise: a strange, large, and bright area in the shape of a heart, standing out powerfully against the darker surface of the dwarf planet. Known as the 'Tombaugh region' in honor of the astronomer who discovered Pluto in 1930, the area is 1,800 km wide east to west and 1,500 km north to south. Since the scientists first saw it…See the Story
