The period of limit cycle events (color contours) depends on planetary obliquity and the magnitude of any additional greenhouse gas warming Fadd. Limit cycling is assumed to halt when CO2

A multidisciplinary team of undergraduate students from three different universities has designed and built a mini satellite, known as a CubeSat, that will launch into space to gather data in
SYDNEY — As much of the global space community gathered to discuss exploration and cooperation, one theme emerged: how the rest of the world is adapting to changes in policies,
Friday the 13th of April 2029 will be our lucky day. Apophis, a 375-metre-wide asteroid, will safely pass Earth at a distance of less than 32 000 kilometres. For a few hours, Apophis will be closer than satellites in geostationary
We’re entering a new era of space. One defined not by exploration alone, but by the infrastructure that makes a sustained presence possible. For decades, our presence in space has
Beginning in the 1980’s, another physicist, Roger Penrose, came up with what he called the Triangle of Reality, which sounds like the nerdiest cult in history (and when later I
The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has successfully launched its newest cargo spacecraft, HTV-X1, aimed at resupplying the International Space Station (ISS). The launch took place on Sunday at the
Relative energies (including zero-point energy, ZPE, corrections) plotted as a function of the total dipole moment for the targeted C3H6O2 isomers, computed at the B2PLYPD3/aug-cc-pVTZ level of theory (Grimme et
Every kilogram of rocket fuel is dead weight once it’s burned, yet conventional spacecraft must carry hundreds, sometimes thousands of tons of propellant to reach even nearby planets. This fundamental
New research uses laboratory experiments to demonstrate that water is naturally created during the planet formation process. By squeezing and heating planetary analog materials between the tips of two diamonds,
