The problem existing in near-Earth orbit is space debris129 million fragments are currently flying around our planet in orbit. Almost 34,000 or so, of which are 10 cm wide. At the height of the ISS orbit, this debris moves around the Earth more than 7 km/sec — this is so fast that a collision with…

There was a month left before the launch of the ship. During training, a very strong fire occurred in the cockpit of the ship. The crew members who were training there were killed. The cause of the fire was a short circuit in the wiring and the use of an explosive oxygen-nitrogen mixture. When the…

NASA has organized the recruitment of an independent group of researchers to study unidentified aerial phenomena, or UAP. Presented an updated term, which is now used to refer to UFOs. NASA makes a statement that the study will take place in test mode and will take about 9 months. NASA stressed that so far there…

The laws are not in the universe, but in the minds of people. Any law is just an explanation. Moreover, one of the possible explanations of the world. The laws of the world are the rails along which humanity moves through the frightening world. And these rails are laid by the person himself. He is…

NASA experts confirmed the information about the impact with an object the size of a grain of sand, saying that this will not affect the scientific program in any way. The telescope is still operating at a level exceeding all requirements, despite the resulting defect in the data. The analysis of the situation and all…

Observations of 67 ancient quasars allowed astronomers to determine the end time of the process of reionization of neutral intergalactic hydrogen gas formed as a result of the Big Bang. It turned out that it lasted about 200 million longer than previously thought, and ended 1.1 billion years after the origin of the universe! From…

Japanese scientists during the study of soil samples from the distant asteroid Ryugu found more than 20 different amino acids that make up proteins. This may be a confirmation of the theory of the cosmic origin of the materials that form the basis of life on Earth. NASA specialists managed to isolate isoleucine and valine,…

DAVINCI is a flying laboratory of analytical chemistry. With the help of it, scientists are going to measure different aspects of the climate of Venus for the first time. Astronomers also plan to get the first image of the highlands of the planet to make up the relief of the surface. It’s impossible to do…

NASA has discovered the planet 55 Cancri e 50 light-years from Earth. It is too close to its star, which is why it constantly burns and emits lava flows. The conditions on the planet were compared to hell. The temperature of the planet is several times higher than the melting point of metals, so huge…

The new generation spacesuits are planned to be used on the ISS, as well as in the Artemis lunar program. The new spacesuits will allow astronauts to go into outer space in low Earth orbit from the ISS, as well as explore the lunar surface. Upon completion of the development, the spacesuits will remain the…
