More disturbing discoveries in Antarctica means we really need to pay more attention

A gigantic cavity – two-thirds the area of Manhattan and almost 1,000 feet (300 meters) tall – growing at the bottom of Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica is one of several disturbing discoveries reported in a new NASA-led study of the disintegrating glacier. The findings highlight the need for detailed observations of Antarctic glaciers’ undersides

Intercepting asteroids to avoid Armageddon

One solution would be to launch a relatively solid space probe designed to hit the asteroid at high speed It sounds like the script for a Hollywood film: a giant meteorite from outer space heading straight for the Earth and threatening the destruction of mankind. And yet such a scenario does represent a real threat

Sandia Labs harnessing the sun’s energy with tiny particles

Falling particle receiver technology is attractive because it can cost-effectively capture and store heat at higher temperatures without breaking down, which is an issue for conventional molten salts. Engineers at Sandia National Laboratories, along with partner institutions Georgia Tech, Bucknell University, King Saud University and the German Aerospace Center (DLR), are using a falling particle

Greater safety in aviation – detecting turbulence in advance with lasers

Many aircraft passengers are familiar with the phenomenon; the sky is clear and blue, the aircraft is cruising calmly, but suddenly everything is disrupted by temporary turbulence. Passengers frequently experience this as a kind of ‘hole in the air’. The reason for this unpleasant change in flight altitude is something known as ‘clear-air turbulence’ (CAT)

The robot is complete – arms and hands for TORO, the walking machine

TORO can respond sensitively to its environment It began in the summer of 2009, with two legs and a camera mounted on top – but it was still far from being a robot of humanoid appearance. Gradually, the TOrque controlled humanoid RObot (TORO), the German Aerospace Center‘s (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) walking

ESA’s Proba-V Tracking Aircraft in Flight From Orbit

ESA’s Proba-V has become the first satellite to pick up aircraft tracking signals, allowing aircraft across the globe to be followed in flight from space. “We have succeeded in proving that these relatively low-powered air traffic control signals can indeed be detected from space as they are, without any need for upgraded aircraft equipment,” explained

New NASA Mission to Take First Look Deep Inside Mars

To investigate whether the core of Mars is solid or liquid NASA has selected a new mission, set to launch in 2016, that will take the first look into the deep interior of Mars to see why the Red Planet evolved so differently from Earth as one of our solar system’s rocky planets. The new
