SpaceX Launches Two SES Communication Satellites on December 17 with Successful Recovery
On December 17, SpaceX successfully launched two communication satellites for SES, marking the second mission of the day. The O3b mPOWER 7 and 8 satellites were deployed into medium Earth orbit (MEO) approximately 5,000 miles above Earth. The Falcon 9 rocket’s first stage successfully returned to Earth after launch, landing on the Just Read the I...

Solar Activity Increase Results in Shortens Lifespan of Binar CubeSats
Curtin University’s Binar CubeSats, launched with a six-month mission lifespan, re-entered Earth's atmosphere after only two months due to unexpectedly high solar activity. This surge in solar phenomena has increased atmospheric drag, impacting the stability of satellites in low Earth orbit. As solar forecasting remains limited, smaller satellite...

Moon Rocks Brought From the Far Side Confirm Ancient Volcanic Activity
Researchers analysing lunar samples from China’s Chang’e-6 mission have uncovered evidence of ancient volcanic activity on the Moon’s far side. The mission, which returned nearly two kilograms of lunar soil in June, landed in the South Pole-Aitken Basin, one of the Moon’s oldest craters. Studies published in Science and Nature revealed volc...

Scientists Confirm Volcanic Eruptions on Moon’s Far Side in New Study
A recent study has confirmed the existence of volcanic eruptions on the Moon’s far side. By analysing lunar soil samples brought back by China’s Chang’e-6 mission, scientists discovered volcanic rock fragments dating to over 2.8 billion years ago. These findings reveal a long history of volcanic activity on the Moon’s far side, mirroring th...
