Magnetospheric convection timescale shows a positive correlation with the tidal heating rate. This suggests that exoplanets which are well-positioned for plasma torus construction will generally also receive the necessary tidal

Astronomers have discovered a “jellyfish” galaxy whose unusual shape and internal mechanisms—including distinctive “bunny ears” and an inner “tail”—are giving researchers an unprecedented view of dynamics within one of the

Legends: FA—fatty acid; PL—phospholipid (i.e., phosphatidic acid here); G—glycerophosphate; Gp—glycerophosphate precursor (e.g., glycerol); GR—glycerophosphate-synthetase ribozyme (here representing the ribozyme favoring the synthesis of phospholipids). The glycerophosphates produced through the catalysis
SpaceX just launched another big fleet of satellites to the final frontier. A Falcon 9 rocket carrying 70 payloads for a variety of customers lifted off from California’s Vandenberg Space
On a chill January evening in 1989, members of the Experimental Aircraft Association of Boston gathered for a special event. At 7 p.m., the group’s president introduced a guest speaker
A collection of 70 payloads manifested onto SpaceX’s Transporter-14 mission. Image: SpaceX SpaceX is preparing for its fourth launch of the year as part of its dedicated smallsat rideshare program,
View larger. | Artist’s illustration of a hot Jupiter type of exoplanet. They are similar to Jupiter or Saturn but orbit very close to their stars, so they’re searingly hot.
In a remarkable display of engineering prowess, Relativity Space has made significant advancements in the creation of the launch infrastructure for the Terran R rocket at Launch Complex 16 (LC-16)
