| Titan’s river maps may advise Dragonfly’s 'sedimental' journey Posted: 18 Oct 2021 10:03 AM PDT With future space exploration in mind, a team of astronomers has published the final maps of Titan's liquid methane rivers and tributaries -- as seen by NASA's late Cassini mission -- so that may help provide context for Dragonfly's upcoming 2030s expedition. |
| Posted: 18 Oct 2021 10:03 AM PDT Engineers have built multi-legged robots capable of maneuvering in challenging environments and accomplishing difficult tasks collectively, mimicking their natural-world counterparts. |
| NASA, ULA launch Lucy Mission to ‘fossils’ of planet formation Posted: 17 Oct 2021 07:05 AM PDT NASA's Lucy mission, the agency's first to Jupiter's Trojan asteroids, launched from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. Over the next 12 years, Lucy will fly by one main-belt asteroid and seven Trojan asteroids, making it the agency's first single spacecraft mission in history to explore so many different asteroids. Lucy will investigate these 'fossils' of planetary formation up close during its journey. |
| Twelfth century literature and space-age data help map 3,000 years of auroras Posted: 14 Oct 2021 11:20 AM PDT Researchers have published maps indicating how the auroral zone has moved over the last three millennia. |
