SpaceX , Falcon 9 and RadarSat Mission SLC-4E, Launch.

SpaceX is targeting Wednesday June 12 for the launch of the RADARSAT constellation mission from Space Launch Complex 4E (SLC-4E) on the Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. The primary launch window opens at 7:17 PM PDT, or 14:17 UTC, and closes at 7:30 PM PDT, or 14:30 PMTC. About 54 minutes after the launch, the deployment of satellites will begin. A backup launch window opens on a Thursday, June 13, at 7:17 a PDT, or 14:17 UTC, and closes at 7:30 a.m. PDT, or 14:30 UTC. Ralph 9's first step is to support the launch of the Ralph Nakshatra Mission. After the crew dragon's first demonstration mission in March 2019, after the separation, the first phase of Falcon 9 will land on the Landing Zone 4 (LZ-4) of SpaceX in the Vandenberg Air Force Base.A two-stage Falcon 9 rocket with the first stage is scheduled to launch the three-space radar-constellation mission (RCM) from the Vandenberg Air Force Base in California tomorrow. The 13 minute launch window opens at 10:17 a.m. EDT (1417 GMT; 7:17 local time in California). This booster already has a launch and landing under a belt. It helped to send the SpaceX crew's Dragon Capsule to the International Space Station in March last year. The six-day flight, known as demo-1, was the first space mission for the astronaut taxi. RCM satellites represent the next phase of Canada's Radarsat program, which sees our planet in radio-wavelength light. Two radar satellites have so far entered the Earth orbit. Radarsat-1 was operated from 1995 to 2013, and Radarset was launched in -2 December 2007 and is still getting stronger. "MDA, built by a Maxx company, RCM's three-satellite configuration will provide a daily amendment to Canada's vast area and marine perspective, including daily access to the Arctic's daily access 4 times as well as to any point of 90% RCM. Responsibility to meet Canadian needs in areas such as marine surveillance, ecosystem and climate change surveillance Traitor. And costs will support the Canadian government to provide better services and help in disaster relief efforts. "Said Canadian Space Agency officials RCM satellites. Our planet will be in place of approximately 370 miles (600kilometers).

NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope Reveals New Details of the Orion Nebula’s Star Formation.

This NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image captures the Orion Nebula (Messier 42, M42), the nearest star-forming region to Earth, located about 1,500 light-years away. A captivating new image captured by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope offers an extraordinary look into the Orion Nebula, the nearest massive star-forming region to Earth. Located just 1,500 light-years away, this nebula is visible to the naked eye below the three stars forming Orion's "belt." The region is home to hundreds of newborn stars, including two protostars featured in the image: HOPS 150 and HOPS 153. Named after the Herschel Orion Protostar Survey, conducted with ESA’s Herschel Space Observatory, the protostars HOPS 150 and HOPS 153 provide key insights into the early stages of star formation. HOPS 150, visible in the upper-right corner of the image, is a binary star system, with two young stars orbiting one another. These protostars are surrounded by small dusty disks, where material from th...

New Method Detects Small Asteroids in Main Belt, Offering Insight for Planetary Defense.

An international team of physicists, led by MIT researchers, has developed a groundbreaking method to detect small asteroids, as small as 10 meters in diameter, within the main asteroid belt. These space rocks, ranging from the size of a bus to several stadiums wide, were previously undetectable using traditional methods. The team's discovery, detailed in a paper published in Nature, could significantly improve tracking of potential asteroid impactors, aiding planetary defense efforts. The main asteroid belt, located between Mars and Jupiter, is home to millions of asteroids, but until now, scientists could only detect objects roughly a kilometer in diameter. The new detection technique, which utilizes the "shift and stack" method, is able to identify much smaller asteroids, even those far from Earth, enabling more precise orbital tracking. This breakthrough is crucial for planetary defense, allowing scientists to spot near-Earth objects that may pose a threat in the fu...

XSPECT Payload Successfully Validates Performance through Cas A Observation.

The XSPECT instrument captures a detailed spectrum of the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A), encompassing both the Galactic Cosmic Ray (GCR) background and the Cosmic X-ray Background (CXB). The flux observed above 8 keV predominantly results from the combined contributions of CXB and GCR. The presented spectrum, depicted in the figure, is derived from a cumulative integration time of 20 ksec, collected across multiple orbits, providing valuable insights into the X-ray emissions associated with Cas A. XPoSat, India's inaugural X-ray polarimetric mission, has achieved a significant as the XSPECT instrument captures its initial observations from the Cassiopeia A (Cas A) supernova remnant. Launched on January 1, 2024, XPoSat is equipped with two co-aligned instruments, namely the POLarimeter Instrument in X-rays (POLIX) and X-ray SPECtroscopy and Timing (XSPECT). This mission is designed to unravel the mysteries of cosmic X-ray sources. While POLIX focuses on examining X-ray po...
