Spacecraft Captures the "Magnetic Avalanche" that Triggers Giant Solar Explosions

67% Center coverage: 6 sources

Solar Orbiter has captured the clearest evidence yet that a solar flare grows through a cascading “magnetic avalanche.” Small, weak magnetic disturbances rapidly multiplied, triggering stronger and stronger explosions that accelerated particles to extreme speeds. The process produced streams of glowing plasma blobs that rained through the Sun’s atmosphere long after the flare itself.See the Story

NASA’s Most Underrated Mission Brought Back Pieces of the Early Solar System

In 2006, NASA’s Stardust mission accomplished something no other spacecraft had done before: it returned solid material from beyond the Moon’s orbit. The samples it brought back included interstellar dust and particles from a comet’s coma. The mission began with little fanfare but went on to deliver groundbreaking results. Designed to collect samples from Comet Wild 2 and interstellar space, Stardust was part of NASA’s Discovery Program, a serie…NASA · Utah Read Article

Six-degree-of-freedom Spacecraft Docking Achieved Via Imitation Learning And Anchored Decoders

Researchers have developed a new artificial intelligence system that allows spacecraft to autonomously dock with each other, even with unexpected disturbances, by learning from simulated expert movements rather than relying on pre-programmed instructions.Spacecraft Read Article

Voyager 1 Just Crossed the Edge of the Solar System and CONFIRMS what WE ALL FEARED

Voyager 1 Just Crossed the Edge of the Solar System and CONFIRMS what WE ALL FEARED Somewhere far beyond the last planets, beyond the comfort of sunlight and familiar gravity, a small spacecraft built in the 1970s quietly crossed a boundary no human had ever touched before. There were no alarms, no dramatic visuals, no sudden celebration back on Earth. Yet, in that silent moment, something extraordinary happened. Voyager 1 entered a region where…Spacecraft Read Article

Skimming Satellites: On The Edge Of The Atmosphere

There’s little about building spacecraft that anyone would call simple. But there’s at least one element of designing a vehicle that will operate outside the Earth’s atmosphere that’s fairly easier to handle: aerodynamics. That’s because, at the altitude that most satellites operate at, drag can essentially be ignored. Which is why most satellites look like refrigerators with solar panels and high-gain antennas attached jutting out at odd angles…Spacecraft · United States Read Article
