Absorption cross-section per molecule extracted from the ExoMol database. For this plot, we set the temperature to 2800 K and pressure to 7.7 kPa as thermal and pressure broadening parameters.
SpaceX is set to transform its Starbase launch site, having secured approval to significantly expand the facility’s footprint. This enhancement will allow the company to nearly double the size of
Color phase curves (CPCs) for the sum of planets ’b’ and ’d’ in the Proxima Centauri system. The CPC is the ratio of the flux in the 21 µm to
The spectrum of UV light available at Earth’s surface before the origin of life at approximately 3.9 Ga and until at least 2.9 Ga (curves black and red, respectively). This
A telescope in Chile has captured a stunning new picture of a grand and graceful cosmic butterfly.
Navigating in a microgravity environment is a challenge even for trained human astronauts, but it is even more challenging for autonomous robots, limiting their use in places like a space
