BBC reports that a company and a university in Japan Satellite design made of wood. Regardless of the request, Qualities of a hipster For such a noble material, what is the point? One benefit: when the satellite shuts down and burns on re-entry, it could theoretically launch Less toxic crap in the atmosphere … Space waste is becoming an increasing problem as more satellites are launched into the atmosphere.Wooden satellites will burn out without releasing harmful substances into the atmosphere or raining debris onto the ground when they sink back to Earth.”We are very concerned about the fact that all…

enormous Black hole It still slips through astronomers’ nets.Supermassive black holes are thought to lie in the cores of most, if not all, galaxies. Our Milky Way has a mass equivalent to 4 million suns, for example, and M87’s – the Only a black hole was directly photographed Tipping the balance at 2.4 billion solar masses.The large galaxy at the core of the Abell 2261 cluster, located about 2.7 billion light-years from Earth, should contain a larger central black hole – a light-consuming monster weighing up to 3 billion to 100 billion suns, astronomers estimate from the galaxy’s mass .…

The crew is on board International Space Station The ISS rang in the new year with the development of zero gravity while in orbit about 250 miles from Earth.Expedition 64 crew consists of NASA Astronauts Kate Robins, Mike Hopkins, Victor Glover, Shannon Walker and the astronaut of the Japan Space Exploration Agency, Soichi Noguchi, wished those still on Earth a Happy New Year from space in A video posted on NASA’s social media.2020 Overview: This year’s most important space storiesGlover said one of the most famous New Year’s Eve traditions is to watch the ball fall from Times Square in…

While 2020 has been a challenging year for the space industry (and everyone else) amid the coronavirus pandemic, a host of exciting missions that will launch or reach their destination in 2021 have continued to move forward. From Mars to asteroids, robots, humans and much more, we’ll see space exploration continue to expand across the solar system. We’ll also see some new rockets launching from companies like Firefly Aerospace and Relativity Space. Here’s what to look forward to:1) Three countries reach MarsThe space industry is expanding rapidly, and the Red Planet appears to be the hottest mission destination. NASA will…

Sometimes, the universe provides the perfect way to express our feelings.A space cloud 7,500 light-years away has given us a convenient goodbye that we can think of for an entire garbage fire of 2020. This small mass of material is part of a much larger cloud complex called the Carina Nebula, and under normal circumstances it would not be given a title of its own. But its distinctive shape led scientists to call it the defiant finger.And this is exactly what it looks like – Lewd gesture of old “Go and do horrible things for yourself,” and “go away, but…

Japanese Researchers are working on satellite technology that would use woody components to eliminate excess Void Scrap, which allows things to burn when returned to Earth’s atmosphere, according to a new report.Sumitomo Forestry, a 400-year-old Japanese carpentry business, is partnering with Kyoto University for Technology Development. BBC I mentioned Tuesday.NASA It was estimated more than a decade ago that 95% of human-made objects in orbit were so Space junk. It comes from defunct satellites, discarded missile stages and other neglected mission materials.NASA confirms that the Earth’s mysterious orbital is a 1960S-ERA ROCKET BOOSTERMost of them are relatively young, according to…

A third of the rivers of the United States have changed dramatically over the past 36 years, turning from blue to yellow and green, revealing stunning new images.The researchers analyzed 235,000 satellite images – taken over a 34-year period between 1984 and 2018 – from NASA and the USGS (USGS) program. Changing shapes can be viewed in a file Interactive map.More than half of the satellite images showed rivers with a predominant yellowish hue, while more than a third of the images were mostly green. Only 8% of the river photos were blue. “Most rivers change gradually and are not…

Japanese scientists got their first look inside the sample capsule of the Hayabusa2 spacecraft containing asteroid dust from a near-Earth asteroid called Ryugu. Space.com, The Hayabusa2 spacecraft launched in 2014 and reached Ryugu in 2018. It spent about a year and a half observing and sampling the asteroid before it left to deposit the sample capsule in Earth’s atmosphere.A large number of particles were confirmed in the “sample chamber A” within the combined capsule (approx 11:10 JST 12/15). This is thought to be the sample from the first landing on the Ryugu. The image looks brown, but our team says…

Arianespace launched a new French Army reconnaissance satellite in orbit on Tuesday (29 December), in reference to the 2020 European launch provider’s final mission. Russian made Soyuz missile The satellite, named Optical Space Component 2 (or Composante Spatiale Optique 2, CSO-2, in French) was launched from Guyana Space Center In Kourou, French Guiana in South America. Takeoff at 11:42 AM EST (1642 GMT) after a one-day delay due to bad weather. CSO-2 is a next-generation Earth imaging satellite designed to help replace the old HELIOS 1 and 2 systems in France.

Color image of galaxy density map at 0.36 redshift from Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) from eROSITA. The white circles mark the location of the clusters of the eight galaxies that make up the new supercluster. Credit: Ghirardini et al. , 2020. By analyzing data from the eROSITA Final Depth Equatorial Survey (eFEDS), an international team of astronomers discovered a new astronomical cluster. The newly discovered structure consisted of eight galactic constellations. The discovery was reported in a paper published December 21 on the arXiv server prior to printing. Superclusters contain various structures with a range of masses, from massive, dense galaxy…
