A NASA X-ray imager is heading to the moon as part of NASA's Artemis campaign, where it will capture the first global images of the magnetic field that shields Earth from solar radiation.
Description: BOOM will design a deployable boom and sensor payload that can mount to a CubeSat and enable low-noise magnetosphere data collection. Deployable booms have been used on space stations and ...
Unfortunate timing The first panel of this artist's concept depicts how Uranus's magnetosphere – its protective bubble – was behaving before the 1986 flyby of NASA's Voyager 2. The second panel shows ...
Description: CEMBA seeks to design a deployable boom-sensor assembly that allows a payload to measure the magnetosphere in a low-noise environment. For space research, spacecraft often hinder the ...
In January 2008, 33 years after Mariner 10 flew past the solar system's innermost planet, MESSENGER crossed Mercury's magnetosphere. Ancient volcanoes, contractional faults, and a rich soup of ...
