NASA Launches Rescue Mission to Save the Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Observatory
NASA is preparing an unprecedented mission to save the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory, a key gamma-ray burst monitor launched in 2004 but now rapidly losing altitude. Partnering with Katalyst Space Technologies, NASA will send a robotic servicer on a Pegasus XL rocket to rendezvous with Swift, inspect it, and raise it to a stable orbit. The effort ...

NASA's New Satellite Duo Begins Tracking Mysterious Auroral Electrojets
The EZIE mission is shaping up to be a breakthrough in space weather research. Launched in March 2025, its three satellites are now orbiting Earth and collecting data on auroral electrojets, massive energy currents near the poles. Scientists believe the results could lead to better forecasting tools and stronger, safer satellite systems.
