Solar-sensational! New Video View – Anatomy of a Coronal Mass Ejection
Scientists making use of NASA’s STEREO spacecraft have created the first detailed images of a three-day journey by solar wind that slams into the Earth at speeds up to a million miles per hour. Researchers at Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) and the National Solar...NASA’s Pluto-bound New Horizons Probe: Healthy and On Course!
NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft – now en route to Pluto — remains healthy and on course. The probe is roughly 21 times as far from the Sun as the Earth is – well on its way, between the orbits of Uranus and Neptune. The craft was launched in January 2006. “From...Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle Prepared for Acoustic Testing
Work on the Orion MPCV, or Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle, has reached a new milestone. Last week at Lockheed Martin facilities near Denver, the Orion MPCV was crowned with a Launch Abort System. In that fully-stacked condition, the combined length of the coupled gear...Mars Rover at Endeavour Crater: New Rim Shots!
New imagery from NASA’s Opportunity Mars rover has revealed more details from the rim of Endeavour crater. The Mars robot has rolled itself to the large impact crater that measures about 14 miles (22 kilometers) in diameter. In pulling up to the crater, Opportunity’s...China’s Experimental Space Laboratory: Tiangong I
China continues to press forward in its plans to loft an experimental space laboratory – and according to one space watcher, China’s Tiangong I may fly sooner than expected. According to Gregory Kulacki, a senior analyst and China Project manager at the Union of...Experiment Data Released from Last Shuttle Flight
One of the last experiments to be flown on the NASA space shuttle program is helping to unravel the role of microgravity and its impact on plants and bacteria. QinetiQ North America today announced the results of its first Symbiotic Nodulation in a Reduced Gravity...NASA’s Jupiter-bound Juno Spreads Its Solar Wings
Now en route to Jupiter, NASA’s Juno spacecraft has begun its five-year cruise to the giant planet. Juno roared off into Florida skies on Friday, August 5th. Engineers report they have received communications from the spacecraft, and its trio of large solar arrays...Juno Ready for Jump to Jupiter
NASA’s Juno spacecraft is ready to begin its five-year journey to Jupiter with a boost from Cape Canaveral this Friday, August 5th. On that day, the launch window opens at 11:34 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time and remains open through 12:43 EDT. Weather appears to be...Japan’s Hayabusa Asteroid Probe: Saga to Appear on the Silver Screen
The saga behind the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency’s (JAXA) Hayabusa asteroid probe is headed for another landing, this time on the silver screen. In fact, a trio of movies is on tap focused on the space probe’s seven year journey to asteroid Itokowa and its...Space Talk

Why do galaxies spin?
A new study "spots “primordial spin” imprinted on galaxies by churning halos of dark matter" and opens "a window for cosmological measurements of neutrino mass and other cosmological parameters".
