Timeline suggests 'giant planet migration' was earlier than predicted

Spacedaily.com 

Washington (UPI) Aug 12, 2019
New research suggests the the reorganization of the solar system's planets, the so-called "giant planet migration," occurred earlier than previously thought. At some point in the earliest days of the solar system, the largest planets began moving from the inner to the outer solar system. Scientists don't know why it happened - only that it did. The migration sent protoplanets, comets a

ALMA dives into Black Hole's 'Sphere of Influence'

Socorro NM (SPX) Aug 08, 2019
What happens inside a black hole stays inside a black hole, but what happens inside a black hole's "sphere of influence" - the innermost region of a galaxy where a black hole's gravity is the dominant force - is of intense interest to astronomers and can help determine the mass of a black hole as well as its impact on its galactic neighborhood. New observations with the Atacama Large Milli

How Many Earth-like Planets Are Around Sun-like Stars

University Park PA (SPX) Aug 15, 2019
A new study provides the most accurate estimate of the frequency that planets that are similar to Earth in size and in distance from their host star occur around stars similar to our Sun. Knowing the rate that these potentially habitable planets occur will be important for designing future astronomical missions to characterize nearby rocky planets around Sun-like stars that could support life.

Moon glows brighter than Sun in images from NASA's Fermi telescope

Greenbelt MD (SPX) Aug 16, 2019
If our eyes could see high-energy radiation called gamma rays, the Moon would appear brighter than the Sun! That's how NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has seen our neighbor in space for the past decade. Gamma-ray observations are not sensitive enough to clearly see the shape of the Moon's disk or any surface features. Instead, Fermi's Large Area Telescope (LAT) detects a prominent g

Proposals selected for small satellites to study interplanetary space

Washington DC (SPX) Aug 16, 2019
NASA has selected two proposals to demonstrate small satellite technologies to improve science observations in deep space, which could help NASA develop better models to predict space weather events that can affect astronauts and spacecraft. "This is the first time that our heliophysics program has funded this kind of technology demonstration," said Peg Luce, deputy director of the Helioph

Moscow (AFP) Aug 13, 2019
Radiation levels were up to 16 times the norm in a nearby town after an explosion at a Russian missile testing site, the national weather service said Tuesday. The explosion at the Arctic facility on Thursday killed five scientists with Russia's nuclear agency, which later confirmed they were involved in testing new weapons. More victims were hospitalised. Rosgidromet, the weather monito

Washington DC (Sputnik) Aug 16, 2019
The senior White House official made the highly contentious claims while commenting on the recent explosion at a military facility in Russia's Arkhangelsk region involving the testing of an unspecified "new piece of armament," which the US has alleged was a new Russian nuclear-powered cruise missile. Russia's new hypersonic glide vehicle and hypersonic cruise missile systems are "largely"

The bit carousel - a mechanism that will play a key role in the acquisition, containment and eventual return to Earth of humanity's first samples from another planet - has been incorporated into NASA's Mars 2020 rover. "The bit carousel is at the heart of the sampling and caching subsystem," said Keith Rosette, Mars 2020 sample handling delivery manager at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory

Russian State Space Corporation Roscosmos said in a statement on Thursday that the launch of the joint Russian-European ExoMars-2020 astrobiology mission, aimed at searching for evidence of life on Mars, had been postponed after the recent failure of tests of the parachutes needed for the landing. "The launch of the ExoMars-2020 mission is planned to take place during the 'astronomic windo

I’m a 66-year-old tourist. Weak eyes and slow legs. I don’t actually MIND having a speedometer, it just isn’t relevant to me. What I would like to find is a cyclocomputer that works like most gps running watches - one that provides the ability to interchange data fields. I want my largest data...
