Arrival of Japanese probe in Mars to be delayed

This is an imaginary picture of Japan's first Mars probe ''Nozomi'' (Hope). The Institute of Space and Astronautical Science said Jan. 12 it will not reach the orbit of the red planet until 2003 or 2004, more than four years after the original target of October 1999, due to lack of fuel. The photo was provided by the institute.

    Nasa Reveals First Look At Asteroid Sample

    Handout photo dated October 12, 2023 shows Asteroid particles coat the base of the OSIRIS-REx science canister. Nasa officials in Houston displayed images of salt-and-pepper chunks of rock and particles of dark space dust that were brought back to Earth from the asteroid, Bennu, and described initial scientific observations about the material. The mission, Osiris-Rex, concluded in September when a capsule containing the collection of asteroid samples re-entered through the Earth’s atmosphere and was recovered in the Utah desert. As technicians pried into the external container, they found that some of the material leaked out. Scientists were able to perform a quick analysis that revealed some early findings. The asteroid bits included waterlogged clay minerals. Their presence could help solve how Earth became a water planet. Asteroids similar to Bennu may have crashed into Earth, filling our oceans.

"At around 14:57 Moscow time (1157 GMT), the connection with the automatic lunar probe was lost," Roscosmos said in a statement. "Preliminary analysis results show that a deviation between the actual and calculated parameters of the propulsion maneuver led the Luna-25 spacecraft to enter an undesignated orbit and it ceased to exist following a collision with the surface of the Moon," it said. According to Roscosmos, a specially formed interdepartmental commission will

          NASA’s Juno Mission Captures Lightning On Jupiter

          Handout - An incredible picture shows lightning on Jupiter. In a vortex near the planet’s north pole, NASA’s Juno space probe mission observed the glow from a bolt of lightning. NASA explain: "On Earth, lightning bolts originate from water clouds, and happen most frequently near the equator, while on Jupiter lightning likely also occurs in clouds containing an ammonia-water solution, and can be seen most often near the poles. In the coming months, Juno’s orbits will repeatedly take it close to Jupiter as the spacecraft passes over the giant planet’s night side, which will provide even more opportunities for Juno’s suite of science instruments to catch lightning in the act." Juno captured the view as it completed its 31st close flyby of Jupiter on Dec. 30, 2020. In this newly released picture, Kevin M. Gill, a software engineer at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, has processed raw data from the JunoCam instrument aboard the spacecraft. At the time the raw image was taken, Juno was about 19,900 miles (32,000 k

Korea launches homegrown space rocket DATELINE: June 22, 2022 LENGTH: 00:01:59 LOCATION: Seoul CATEGORY: TECHNOLOGY SHOTLIST: 1. various of the space rocket launching (courtesy of ROK's Ministry of Science and ICT) STORYLINE: South Korea successfully launched its homegrown space rocket on Tuesday, putting multiple satellites into low-Earth orbit. The Korea Space Launch Vehicle (KSLV)-II, also dubbed Nuri, blasted off from the Naro Space Center in the southern coastal village of Goheung at about 4:00 p.m. local time, live footage from the Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) showed. The three-stage space rocket flew past an altitude of 200 km after separating its fairing at about 4:03 p.m., and the third-stage booster engine stopped at 4:13 p.m. as it reached the target altitude of 700 km. The verification satellite and the dummy satellite were separated from the booster at 4:14 p.m. and 4:16 p.m. each. The rocket was loaded with a 162.5-kg performance verification satellite to verify the
