NASA’s Roman Team Confirms Ground Stations Receiving Data - NASA Science (opens the original)
Read excerpt
NASA has now confirmed all ground stations supporting the agency’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope are ready to receive the mission’s high volume of data once science operations begin by early 2027. Observing the far reaches of the cosmos wouldn’t be possible without a network of ground stations strategically located around the world serving as a tether between Earth and space. Ground stations from NASA’s Near Space Network in New Mexico, ESA (European Space Agency) in Australia, and JAXA (Jap
NASA’s DAVINCI Beats Heat in Preparation for Blistering Venus Descent - NASA Science (opens the original)
Read excerpt
An engineering model of NASA’s DAVINCI (Deep Atmosphere Venus Investigation of Noble gases, Chemistry, and Imaging) descent probe passed a key test that ran from Aug. 28 to Sept. 10, showing it can survive the extreme temperatures of Venus. The DAVINCI team took the engineering model to a furnace at Rex Heat Treat in Bedford, Pennsylvania, as it’s one of few facilities capable of heating up to Venus-like temperatures as rapidly as the probe would experience. They slid the yoga ball-sized vessel
9 Things to Know About NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope - NASA Science (opens the original)
Read excerpt
NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is set to launch at 7:26 a.m. EDT on Sunday, Aug. 30. While you wait to watch the launch, brush up on some key facts about this wide-view mission. Roman is named after Dr. Nancy Grace Roman (1925–2018), NASA’s first chief of astronomy. She championed space-based observatories that could study the universe above Earth’s hazy atmosphere while making their data broadly available to the scientific community. While she’s known as the “mother” of the Hubble Spa
NASA’s Swift Sees ‘Wandering’ Mega Black Hole Shredding Star - NASA Science (opens the original)
Read excerpt
NASA’s Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory captured an “orphan” black hole lighting up as it devoured a star on the outskirts of a faraway galaxy. These phenomena are rare to begin with, and none had ever before been seen so far outside of a galaxy’s core. “We were looking for these star-shredding events as a way to find otherwise invisible supermassive black holes wandering away from the galactic cores where they usually reside,” said Robert Stein, a research fellow at The University of Maryland, Co
