NASA Artemis II Orion Spacecraft Prepares for Historic Crewed Moon Mission with Safety Systems Installed
NASA’s Artemis II Orion spacecraft has taken another major step toward launch. After being fueled, it was moved to the Launch Abort System Facility at Kennedy Space Centre, where engineers are integrating a 44-foot-tall escape system to protect astronauts during liftoff. The mission will see four astronauts, including one from Canada, fly around ...

NASA's TRACERS Satellites Begin Solar Wind Study Despite SV1 Glitch
NASA launched its twin TRACERS satellites on July 23, 2025, to study how solar wind causes magnetic reconnection in Earth's magnetosphere. However, a power issue on one spacecraft, SV1, has caused intermittent communication. Engineers believe the issue relates to sunlight availability on its solar panels and plan recovery efforts in August. Meanwhi...

China Launches PRSS-01 to Elevate Pakistan’s Space and Disaster Response
China successfully launched Pakistan’s first dedicated remote sensing satellite, PRSS-01, aboard a Kuaizhou-1A rocket from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in Sichuan. The satellite entered its planned orbit and will provide high-resolution imaging for civilian and governmental uses, including urban planning, land surveys, environmental monito...

Dolby Atmos in the Studio: How the 3D Sound Stage Technology Is Reshaping Music Production in India
At the heart of the music creation process is a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW), a software (typically Avid Pro Tools or Steinberg Nuendo) that acts as the central hub to record, edit, mix, and produce audio (think of it as the Photoshop of sound). The DAW runs the Dolby Atmos Production Suite, a software toolkit developed by Dolby that allows soun...

NASA’s X-59 Moves Closer to First Flight with Advanced Taxi Tests and Augmented Vision
NASA and Lockheed Martin’s X-59 experimental aircraft, engineered for quiet supersonic travel, is undergoing taxi tests at the U.S. Air Force’s Plant 42. Unique features include its AR-enabled camera vision system and a boom-reducing shape. The X-59 continues NASA’s legacy at Plant 42, home to iconic aerospace programs like the F-22 and Space...

NASA Engineers Rescue JunoCam with Deep-Space Heating Hack
NASA’s JunoCam, once believed nearly lost to Jupiter’s intense radiation, has made a stunning comeback thanks to a bold experiment. Engineers used a process called annealing—heating the camera from afar—to reverse internal damage and restore image clarity. Just in time for a close flyby of the volcanic moon Io, the camera delivered detailed...

NASA Grounds Boeing Starliner Until 2026 After Test Flight Failures
NASA has grounded Boeing’s CST-100 Starliner until at least 2026 following critical malfunctions during its June 2024 crewed test flight. The mission was cut short due to multiple thruster failures and helium pressurization leaks. NASA decided to bring Starliner back to Earth empty, leaving the astronauts on the ISS for safety. Engineers traced t...

Axiom 4 Mission Crew Settles Down at ISS, Begins Conducting Biomedical Research
Crews aboard the ISS carried out crucial biomedical research focused on immunity and muscle function in space. JAXA’s Takuya Onishi and the Ax-4 astronauts contributed to ongoing health studies, while engineers completed maintenance tasks and offloaded cargo from Progress 92. These activities mark another step forward in preparing humans for long...

Axiom-4 Mission Carrying Indian Astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla Reportedly Delayed Due to LOx Leak
A liquid oxygen (LOx) leak detected in SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket has led to the fourth delay of the Axiom-4 mission, which includes Indian astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla. Identified during a static fire test, the leak has paused launch plans as engineers work on repairs and safety checks, with a new launch date yet to be confirmed.
