Space physicist’s research will measure temperature, density of earth’s upper atmosphere

ABU DHABI, 1st July, 2022 (WAM) -- The Emirates Mars Mission ‘Hope Probe’ has identified new observations, in addition to its nominal set of observations, about Mars’ atmosphere in its fourth batch of scientific data. Collected by the Hope Probe’s instruments during its mission in Mars’ orbit from December 2021 to February 2022, the latest data demonstrate the capabilities of the instruments, and its incredible performance. With 118.5 gigabytes of information, images, and data captured...

The company's LaunchOne is supposed to be its fifth launch, but the first one to be done at nighttime.

GAZING up at a star-filled sky before falling asleep in your tent beneath the Milky Way is one of the real joys of summer.

Private aerospace companies are trying to mold a modern orbital ecosystem driven as much by profits as it is by exploration. Already home to the nation’s second largest commercial space economy, the Centennial State is a major launch pad in more ways than one.

Researchers from Lund University have pieced together data on Earths geomagnetic field strength stretching back 9,000 years and say theres no evidence a reversal is on the cards.
