Scientists Chase Falling Satellite to Study Atmospheric Pollution from Spacecraft Reentries
- Wednesday May 7, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
In a rare airborne mission, scientists chased ESA's Cluster Salsa satellite as it reentered Earth's atmosphere. The fiery descent revealed emissions of lithium, potassium, and aluminum—chemicals that could impact the ozone layer and climate. With satellite reentries increasing, researchers aim to improve pollution models and plan further tracking...

Tiny Plasma Jets on Sun Identified as Key Drivers of Solar Wind
- Friday February 14, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Observations from ESA’s Solar Orbiter have revealed that tiny plasma jets, known as picoflares, are responsible for both the fast and slow components of the solar wind. The discovery challenges previous assumptions that different mechanisms drive these solar wind types. With further research, scientists hope to refine space weather predictions, p...

A Star With a Planet May Be Racing Through the Galaxy at Record Speed
- Wednesday February 12, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Astronomers have identified a potential record-breaking exoplanet system moving at 1.2 million mph. Detected through microlensing, the discovery suggests a low-mass star with an orbiting planet is racing through the Milky Way. Data from the Keck Observatory and ESA’s Gaia satellite indicate a high-speed celestial body that may eventually escape t...
