NASA Prepares 2025 Carruthers Mission to Explore Earth’s Hidden Hydrogen Halo
NASA’s Carruthers Geocorona Observatory, launching in 2025, will capture ultraviolet light from hydrogen atoms to map Earth’s faint geocorona. Operating a million miles sunward, it will study how solar activity drives atmospheric loss, improves satellite protection, and reveals clues to planetary habitability, providing critical insight for fut...

NASA Resolves Artemis II Rocket Vibration Issues Through Wind Tunnel Testing
NASA has resolved troubling airflow vibrations detected during Artemis I. By combining wind-tunnel tests, advanced pressure-sensing paint, and supercomputer simulations, engineers added aerodynamic strakes to the SLS rocket. The fix cuts turbulence, ensuring Artemis II remains safe and on schedule for its upcoming crewed mission to the Moon.

New Battery Tech May Double EV Range and Safety, Researchers in China Claim
A team in China has unveiled a lithium battery design with over 600 Wh/kg energy density—double that of Tesla’s best batteries. If scalable, the breakthrough could revolutionise electric vehicles, extend driving ranges, and improve safety. Researchers caution that it remains a proof-of-concept requiring more real-world testing before mass adopt...

Solar Sail Spacecraft Could Boost Space Weather Warnings by Nearly 60 Minutes
A solar sail spacecraft could extend space weather warnings from 40 to 60 minutes, offering vital lead time before solar storms strike. Part of the SWIFT mission, this satellite will orbit farther than any current monitor, using sunlight for propulsion. The system aims to better protect satellites, astronauts, and power grids from geomagnetic disru...
