Islamabad [Pakistan], September 3 (ANI): The Pakistan Bureau of Statistics (PBS) on Friday stated that the inflation measured by the Sensitive Price Index (SPI) rose steeply in the previous week climbing to a record 45.5 per cent year-on-year in September, the highest level in a decade.
Washington [US], July 27 (ANI): NASA has completed the system requirements review for its Mars Sample Return Program, which is nearing completion of the conceptual design phase.
During this phase, the program team evaluated and refined the architecture to return the scientifically selected samples, which are currently in the collection process by NASA's Perseverance rover in the Red Planet's Jezero Crater.
An uncrewed Chinese spacecraft has acquired imagery data covering all of Mars. The photos also include the south pole. Chinese spacecraft captures pictures of the red planet China’s Tianwen-1, an uncrewed spacecraft reached Mars in February 2021 as the country’s inaugural mission. A robotic rover has since been deployed on the surface as an orbiter […]
Astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti created history when she made the first-ever TikTok video from the International Space Station (ISS). Cristoforetti, from the European Space Agency (ESA), is currently on the Crew-4 mission by SpaceX. Cristoforetti’s 88 seconds video shows glimpses of the space station where she will be spending the next six months. In the video, […]
To say the least, the thought of a spacewalk is exciting. Yes, it’s more like space floating than a walk. It’s difficult to picture being outside the safe spacecraft with almost nothing between you and the stars. There’s also a sense of adventure. There have been plenty of films depicting the cable linking the astronaut […]
Barcelona [Spain], March 19 (ANI): A new research has proposed using the variations in distance between the Earth and the Moon, which can be measured with a precision of less than a centimetre, as a new gravitational wave detector within a frequency range that current devices cannot detect. The research could pave the way for the detection of signals from the early universe.
Paris [France], February 26 (ANI): Previous studies have shown that spaceflight has the potential to alter both the shape and function of an adult brain. A recent study has made new discoveries regarding the same.
Lisbon [Portugal], February 23 (ANI): The second planet in our Solar System, which shines like a bright star when seen from the Earth and named after the Roman goddess of beauty, is the ever glowing Venus. Underneath its thick mantle of acid sulfuric clouds, at the surface 460 degrees Celsius are the rule. This temperature is kept by the greenhouse effect of a virtually carbon dioxide only atmosphere. Seventy kilometres above, one has to withstand a perpetual wind storm, the product of the so called Venus superrotation1. A team of researchers has come closer to explaining the link between these infernal features.
Paris [France], February 22 (ANI): The human brain is dynamic as it can change and adapt in structure and function throughout life. As human exploration of space reaches new horizons every year, understanding the effects of spaceflight on human brains is crucial. Previous studies have shown that spaceflight has the potential to alter both the shape and function of an adult brain. A recent study has made new discoveries regarding the same.
Paris [France], February 22 (ANI): The Solar Orbiter spacecraft, a joint project of the American National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the European Space Agency (ESA) has captured the largest solar prominence eruption ever observed in a single image together with the full solar disc.
