The researchers expect the technique will be widely adopted in both life sciences and in materials science, for instance in battery research or to look at defects causing building materials to fail.
NASA will go live today, as the first woman and man will explore the Moon wearing their spacesuits as part of the international space agency's Artemis program.
Jupiter spins once every 10 hours and this fast rotation creates strong jet streams, separating its clouds into dark belts and bright zones that stretch across the face of the planet.
A team of Indian-origin doctors in the US has found that a drug widely prescribed for a bladder condition for decades globally, now appears to be toxic to the retina.
The black hole system studied is named MAXI J1820+070 and was first discovered in early 2018. About 10,000 light years away in our own Milky Way, it has the mass of about seven suns.
Researchers have found that the strong cosmic winds emerging from supermassive black holes at the centre of dwarf galaxies impact the expansion and evolution of these galaxies by suppressing star formation -- an advance that sheds more light on how galaxies grow and evolve.
Such artificial skin enables robots to perceive their surroundings in much greater detail and with more sensitivity.
According to the European Space Agency (ESA), of the 600,000 known asteroids in our solar system, some 20,000 are NEOs and 800 are on the agency’s ‘risk list’ for observation.
The more-distant retrograde moons and one of the prograde moons each take more than three years to complete an orbit.
The phenomenon, known as a Seyfert flare, created two enormous 'ionisation cones' that sliced through the Milky Way -- beginning with a relatively small diameter close to the black hole, and expanding vastly as they exited the galaxy.
Koch was supposed to do a spacewalk with another female crewmate in March. But NASA had to scrap the plan just a few days in advance because there wasn’t enough time to get a second medium-size spacesuit ready. The second medium was put together on board in June.
According to the ISRO, the pictures taken by the Orbiter from a height of 100 km from the moon surface are part of the Boguslawsky E Crater -- measuring about 14 km in diameter and 3 km depth -- and surroundings which lie in the Southern Polar region of the moon.
After several days of searching, researchers found a suitable floe measuring about 2.5 kilometres by 3.5 kilometres (1.5 miles by 2.2 miles) in the Arctic Sea north of Russia that will serve as a base for the mission, the institute said.
CLASS, a payload aboard India's second Moon mission Chandrayaan2’s Orbiter payload, in its first few days of observation, detected charged particles, and its intensity variations, the Indian Space Research Organisation said on Thursday.
Experts believe that the fungi's appearance in Australia is most likely natural as there have also been unconfirmed reports of it growing in the nearby islands of Papua New Guinea and Indonesia.
NASA's Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) has set its eyes on three asteroids who are likely to intersect Earth's orbit. All of these asteroids are hurtling through space towards the earth at a breathtaking speed of thousands of miles per hour.
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is continuing to spring Chandrayaan-2's Vikram Lander to life. ISRO has not given up efforts even after three weeks after Vikram's hard-landing on the lunar surface.
Over 9.8 million people have submitted their names so far. The rover is scheduled to be launched around July 2020 and is expected to touch down on Mars by February 2021.
This new world is "an extraordinary candidate" for this process, said Hubert Klahr of Max Planck Institute for Astronomy in Germany, part of the research team. "This find prompts us to review our models."
NASA said that the tidal disruption event was discovered by the ASAS-SN -- a worldwide network of 20 robotic telescopes headquartered at Ohio State University (OSU) in the US on January 29.
