The European Space Agency (Esa) has given the green light for the first mission to detect and study gravitational waves from space. Designed to detect the ripples caused by the collision of supermassive black holes, the Lisa (Laser Interferometer-Space Antenna) mission is the most expensive and complex Esa mission to-date. It will see three spacecraft trail Earth in its orbit around the Sun, forming a triangle in space. Each side of the triangle will be 1.5 million miles (2.5 million km) long – more than six times the Earth-Moon distance, and the spacecraft will fire laser beams at each other over this distance in a bid to pick up gravitational waves. The launch of the three spacecraft is planned for 2035, on an Ariane 6 rocket. Philippe Jetzer, a professor of gravitation and astrophysics at the University of Zurich in Switzerland, said: “Lisa will provide us with a new view of the universe. “We hope to gain new insights into its origins and development – such as how the Big Bang came about.

Launched into a low Earth orbit in 1990 the Hubble telescope features a 2.4 m (7 ft 10 in) mirror, and its five main instruments observe in the ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Hubble's orbit outside the distortion of Earth's atmosphere allows it to capture extremely high-resolution images with substantially lower background light than ground-based telescopes. It has recorded some of the most detailed visible light images, allowing a deep view into space. Many Hubble observations have led to breakthroughs in astrophysics, such as determining the rate of expansion of the universe. Were I given access to this marvel of science I would still find myself unable to detect my interest in paying to learn how to do an #explainer video #voiceover I resent the implication that for over 30 years the meaning of everything I have recorded has proven impenetrable!

📃Scientific paper: The New Horizons Extended Mission Target: Arrokoth Search and Discovery Abstract: Following the Pluto fly-by of the New Horizons spacecraft, the mission provided a unique opportunity to explore the Kuiper Belt in-situ. The possibility existed to fly-by a Kuiper Belt object (KBO) as well as to observe additional objects at distances closer than are feasible from earth-orbit facilities. However, at the time of launch no KBOs were known about that were accessible by the spacecraft. In this paper we present the results of 10 years of observations and three uniquely dedicated efforts -- two ground-based using the Subaru Suprime Camera, the Magellan MegaCam and IMACS Cameras, and one with the Hubble Space Telescope -- to find such KBOs for study. In this paper we overview the search criteria and strategies employed in our work and detail the analysis efforts to locate and track faint objects in the galactic plane. We also present a summary of all of the KBOs that were discovered as part of our efforts and how spacecraft targetability was assessed, including a detailed description of our astrometric analysis which included development of an extensive secondary calibration network. Overall, these efforts resulted in the discovery of 89 KBOs including 11 which became objects for distant observation by New Horizons and (486958) Arrokoth which became the first post-Pluto fly-by destination. ;Comment: Accepted to PSJ. 40 pages, 10 figures, 10 tables Continued on ES/IODE ➡️ https://etcse.fr/fBx9U ------- If you find this interesting, feel free to follow, comment and share.

ISRO - Indian Space Research Organization has successfully launched of XPoSat, India’s first X-ray Polarimeter Satellite, on January 1, 2024. This mission marks a historic achievement for India’s space program and a giant leap for X-ray astronomy. XPoSat will study the polarisation of X-rays emitted by some of the most extreme and mysterious objects in the universe, such as black holes, neutron stars, and pulsars. By measuring the degree and angle of polarisation, XPoSat will reveal crucial information about the geometry, magnetic fields, and emission mechanisms of these sources, potentially resolving some of the longstanding puzzles in astrophysics. XPoSat is not only India’s first dedicated polarimetry mission, but also the world’s second, following NASA’s IXPE launched in 2021. XPoSat will observe 50 of the brightest X-ray sources in the sky over its five-year mission lifespan, providing unprecedented data and insights for the scientific community. I congratulate all the scientists, engineers, and technicians who made it possible. XPoSat is a testament to India’s vision, innovation, and excellence in space exploration. I look forward to sharing the exciting results and discoveries from XPoSat in the coming years. #XPoSat #ISRO #XrayAstronomy #BlackHoles #SpaceExploration #India
