 Boulder CO (SPX) Jul 07, 2009 
The University of Colorado at Boulder is working with NASA to develop a new communications technology now being tested on the International Space Station, which will extend Earth's Internet into outer space and across the solar system. Called Disruption Tolerant Networking, or DTN, the new technology will enable NASA and other space agencies around the world to better communicate with ... read more 
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Jul 06, 2009At the start of the Obama administration, our young and energetic president made clear that NASA must shed its ennui and business as usual attitude and get back to executing some bold and daring projects. He appointed a transition team to look into changes. At that time, I recall there was talk of bringing various seemingly disparate agencies and departments together, especially the ... more

Washington (AFP) July 5, 2009Forty years ago on July 20, 1969, American astronaut Neil Armstrong realized the oldest dream of human civilizations when he became the first man to walk on the moon. As an estimated 500 million people around the world waited with bated breath crowded around fuzzy television screens and radios, Armstrong stepped down the lunar module's ladder and onto the lunar surface. "That's one small ... more 
Bangalore, India (PTI) Jul 06, 2009India's second lunar mission Chandrayaan-II is likely to be launched by 2013, Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) chairman G. Madhavan Nair said Saturday. 'Chandrayaan-II should take place by 2013. Our first lunar mission, Chandrayaan-I, has given us a substantial understanding about entering the moon's orbit. But ensuring the safe landing of the rover on the lunar surface is still ... more 
Greenbelt MD (SPX) Jul 03, 2009NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, or LRO, has transmitted its first images since reaching lunar orbit June 23. The spacecraft has two cameras - a low resolution Wide Angle Camera and a high resolution Narrow Angle Camera. Collectively known as the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera, or LROC, they were activated June 30. The cameras are working well and have returned images of a region ... more 
Tucson AZ (SPX) Jun 30, 2009Robert C. Reedy, a senior scientist at the Tucson-based Planetary Science Institute, is mapping the Moon's surface elements using data gathered by an advanced gamma-ray spectrometer (GRS) that rode aboard the Japanese Kaguya spacecraft. The data promise to show chemical elements on the Moon that have never been identified before, and Reedy and the Kaguya GRS team already have found uranium ... more |

Moffett Field CA (SPX) Jun 26, 2009NASA has announced that it has signed an agreement with the California Space Authority, Inc., (CSA) to collaborate on participatory science and public outreach using a simulated lunar surface environment. Under the terms of a Space Act Agreement, CSA will establish an office at NASA's Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, Calif., in NASA Research Park. This fall, NASA Ames and CSA, along ... more 
Moffett Field CA (SPX) Jun 26, 2009If life exists on Titan, it's anyone's guess what that life looks like. Saturn's largest moon is not a good candidate for Earth-like life because it usually lacks liquid water on the surface. But one of Titan's most promising features is the presence of lakes filled with liquid hydrocarbons, or molecules made of hydrogen and carbon, such as methane and ethane. These lakes were recently ... more 
Moffett Field CA (SPX) Jun 25, 2009The Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite, or LCROSS, successfully completed its most significant early mission milestone Tuesday with a lunar swingby and calibration of its science instruments. The satellite will search for water ice in a permanently shadowed crater at the moon's south pole. With the assist of the moon's gravity, LCROSS and its attached Centaur booster rocket ... more 
Potsdam, Germany (SPX) Jun 25, 2009An enormous plume of water spurts in giant jets from the south pole of Saturn's moon Enceladus. In a report published in the international science journal Nature, European researchers provide evidence that this magnificent plume is fed by a salty ocean. The discovery could have implications for the search for extraterrestrial life as well as our understanding of how planetary moons are for ... more |
