This organization will contain the evapotranspiration remote sensing algorithms developed at NASA Jet Propulsion laboratory for the ECOsystem Spaceborne Thermal Radiometer Experiment on Space Station ...

Petre joined the US space agency in January 2023. From a modest background, he followed his passion – space – and set his ...

Moreover, the specific impulse from antimatter engines could theoretically reach a whopping 20 million meters per second, which the researchers say could make "interstellar propulsion a goal ...

Getting places in space quickly has been the goal of propulsion research for a long time. Rockets, our most common means of doing so, are great for providing lots of force but are extraordinarily ...

A ROCKET jet has hit a dizzying new speed of over 5,000mph - with hopes the project will one day be able to take passengers anywhere in the world in just 60 minutes. Scientists behind the Chinese ...

NEW YORK — A bird strike involving an American Airlines jet bound for Charlotte, North Carolina, disabled one of the plane’s two engines shortly after takeoff from New York’s LaGuardia ...

NASA's Ingenuity helicopter, the first to fly on another planet, crashed on Mars after 72 successful flights. A software glitch during its final flight in January 2024 led to an uncontrolled descent.

What can NASA’s Ingenuity helicopter on Mars teach us about flying on other planets? This is what engineers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory recently investigated ever since the robotic pioneer ...

Propulsion technologies are the key to exploring the outer solar system, and many organizations have been working on novel ones. One with a long track record is the Ad Astra Rocket Company, which ...

That study has shown propulsion likely would be a choke point, as Kratos would look to use both in-house designed engines and those from partners. The finding was the production run would take ...

At roughly half the size of a soccer field, the Mars Yard at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) features a collection of slopes and rocks designed for rovers to drive in, climb on, and maneuver ...
