HELSINKI — China’s main space contractor performed a static fire test of a new reusable Long March rocket Friday, paving the way for a test flight. The Long March 12B
Backdropped by a blue and white part of Earth, the International Space Station is seen from Space Shuttle Discovery as the two spacecraft begin their relative separation. S128-E-010004 (8 Sept.
A decision tree strategy for characterizing Earth-like exoplanets (Young et al. 2024). This tree indicates which gasses to observe, and in which order, to detect the biosignatures of Earth through
Young protostars populate the cloudy regions in the Orion Molecular Cloud complex in these images from the Hubble Space Telescope. Three of the telescope’s new images are part of a
Hydrodynamic models of the τ Ceti astrosphere, assuming stellar mass loss rates of M˙= 0.03 M˙⊙ (left) and M˙= 0.1 M˙⊙ (right). The top panels show neutral H density and
a Estimated NH3 production rate as a function of Venusian altitude (48 to 85 km) formed by different S0 allotropes, calculated using two established aerosol and vapor models constrained by Venusian
Intensity maps at 4.4 µm with the apertures chosen for the fit. Aperture centers and diameters are listed in Table C.1. — astro-ph.GA Context. There are only six molecules containing
The integrated intensity images of CH3OH transitions overlaid with dust continuum (black contours at σ and σ = 0.10 K). The integration intervals span from −2.5
