PILOTing through the magnetosphere: Using mission design to advance science, Los Angeles CA (SPX) Aug 25, 2023 Not so long ago (2022), Advanced Space collaborated with a team of science and engineering organizations to help design a science mission to study the effects of the biggest space weather maker in the solar system: the Sun. The mission concept, called Plasma Imaging, LOcal measurement, and Tomographic experiment (PILOT), is designed to measure the flow of cold, dense plasma into and out of Earth, : https://lnkd.in/ek5eFArg

This article gives you a very good summary about the crucial part that relativity plays in satellite navigation! "Could Einstein have imagined one hundred years ago that a billion people would unknowingly account for the effects of his esoteric theory in their everyday activities?" #navigation #gps #relativity #pnt

Six planets are found to transit the bright star HD 110067. They are sub-Neptunes with radii ranging from 1.94R⊕ to 2.85R⊕. Three of the planets have measured masses, yielding low bulk densities that suggest the presence of large hydrogen-dominated atmospheres. ESA’s CHEOPS satellite was essential for this exciting finding. The Institute of Optical Sensor Systems with support of the Institute of Planetary Research developed the Focal Plane Module (FPM) and the Sensor Electronics Module (SEM) including on-board software. Two of the co-authors of that paper are from our institute. See: A resonant sextuplet of sub-Neptunes transiting the bright star HD 110067 in Nature https://lnkd.in/dPJVMwxs

Five recent images of the universe from the Euclid satellite could help us unravel the secrets of the cosmos. More than 2,000 scientists, including UBC researchers, are analyzing the data.

Condor refers to an array of six refracting telescopes that measure 180 millimeters in diameter. Each component has a motorized filter wheel, a large-format CMOS camera, and a focal-reducing field corrector. This array telescope is optimized for detecting both point sources and extended low-surface-brightness features. It is also capable of imaging regions of the sky at a very rapid cadence of 60 seconds or less. https://lnkd.in/gdfatkS8

Exploring faster-than-light (FTL) communication, a concept rooted in science fiction has intrigued scientists and engineers for years. The proverbial little brother to FTL travel, where a spacecraft is sent at warp to a distant location, FTL communication may be a promising first step, and one theorist is shifting focus to “Hyperwaves,” a method of sending messages across vast distances faster than the speed of light. The recent paper, partially funded by the British government’s Defence Science and Technology Laboratory and the Ministry of Defence, uploaded to arXiv, “Hyperwave: Hyper-Fast Communication within General Relativity,” by Dr. Lorenzo Pieri, offers a novel approach to this challenge. It suggests using “hypertubes” – structures that can manage the distribution and configuration of negative energy – to accelerate and decelerate warp bubbles, facilitating FTL communication.
