Since the first X-ray image of a comet was taken in 1996, researchers have intensely studied charge exchange in collisions between highly charged ions and atoms or molecules, a process critical for astrophysical modeling. In simulating observed X-ray spectra, astrophysicists depend on precise atomic data, where spin statistics are traditionally considered a fundamental guideline. A new stu

Almost 14 billion years ago, at the very beginning of the Big Bang, a mysterious energy drove an exponential expansion of the infant universe and produced all known matter, according to the prevailing inflationary universe theory. That ancient energy shared key features of the current universe's dark energy, which is the largest mystery of our time by at least one objective standard: It ma

A recent study from the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE) has mapped significant variations in temperature across the Local Hot Bubble (LHB), a low-density region surrounding our Solar System filled with hot gas emitting in soft X-rays. This discovery, based on the eROSITA All-Sky Survey data, suggests that ancient supernova events expanded and heated this bubble. Additiona

SpaceX on Wednesday successfully launched a new batch of Starlink satellites into orbit after previously launching 200 similar missions. A Falcon 9 rocket fitted with 23 Starlink satellites launched into low-Earth orbit on time at approximately 5:10 p.m. ET from Space Launch Complex 40 at Florida's Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. The space mission's live-stream began minutes prio

A recent study indicates that Uranus' small moon Miranda may contain a subsurface ocean, challenging prior assumptions about the moon's formation and characteristics and positioning it among a select few worlds in our solar system with potential habitats for life. "To find evidence of an ocean inside a small object like Miranda is incredibly surprising," said Tom Nordheim, a planetary scie

Water extraction in space is critical for expanding human exploration of the Solar System. Led by the German Aerospace Center (DLR), a new technique is being validated to harvest water from the Moon. Through the LUWEX research project, dedicated to testing lunar water extraction and purification for in-situ resource use, researchers at the Technical University (TU) Braunschweig have conducted la

NASA's Lunar Trailblazer mission is poised to answer longstanding questions about the distribution and composition of water on the Moon. While scientists have long suspected the presence of lunar water, the details of where it resides, its forms, and its movement across the Moon's surface remain unknown. Launching next year, Lunar Trailblazer will circle the Moon to create a high-resolutio

For four years, the Martian "Mole" HP3 experiment made notable contributions to planetary research on Mars. Named after the burrowing animal, the Heat Flow and Physical Properties Package (HP3), developed by the German Aerospace Center and European partners, was deployed on Mars in January 2019 as part of NASA's InSight mission. Its goal was to dig up to five meters into the Martian soil and mea
