Voyager 1 Detects Plasma "Hum"
Obipale shares a report from Phys.Org: Voyager 1 -- one of two sibling NASA spacecraft launched 44 years ago and now the most distant human-made object in space -- still works and zooms toward infinity. The craft has long since zipped past the edge o.....»»
IDrive introduces Google Shared Drive backup
IDrive Backup announced the introduction of Google Shared Drive backup, which automatically detects and backs up all the shared drives available to the Super Administrator of the Google Workspace account. Shared drives, which are special folders in G.....»»
Webb detects most distant active supermassive black hole to date
It's a bonanza: The universe is absolutely teeming with black holes. Researchers have long known this, but less massive black holes that existed in the early universe were too dim to detect—that is until the James Webb Space Telescope began taking.....»»
Webb Telescope detects most distant active supermassive black hole
Researchers have discovered the most distant active supermassive black hole to date with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The galaxy, CEERS 1019, existed about 570 million years after the big bang, and its black hole is less massive than any ot.....»»
Collaborative research detects nanojets with machine learning algorithms
A mystery that has baffled astronomers and physicists for decades is a step closer to being solved thanks to a collaboration between Northumbria University and leading US aerospace technology organization, Lockheed Martin......»»
Simulation claims to find solutions to a central mystery in space physics
How are plasma eruptions in near-Earth space formed? Vlasiator, a model designed at the University of Helsinki for simulating near-Earth space, demonstrated that the two central theories on the occurrence of eruptions are simultaneously valid: erupti.....»»
James Webb detects important molecule in the stunning Orion nebula
The molecule, called methyl cation, is important for the development of the complex carbon-based molecules on which life depends......»»
Novel algorithm improves understanding of plasma shock waves in space
Imagine the explosive disturbance caused by a jet going supersonic. A similar shock wave occurs when subatomic particles known as "solar wind" flow from the sun and strike the Earth's magnetic field. Now, scientists have used a recently developed tec.....»»
Zhurong rover detects extremely weak magnetic fields on surface of Mars" Utopia Basin
A joint research team led by Prof. Du Aimin from the Institute of Geology and Geophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IGGCAS) has found extremely weak magnetic fields during the Zhurong rover's first 1-km traverse on Mars. This indicates no de.....»»
Celerium Compromise Defender detects and disrupts cyber compromise activity
Celerium released its latest cybersecurity solution, Compromise Defender. As an integral part of Celerium’s Cyber Defense Network , this innovative solution combines rapid implementation and automation to provide early detection and defense of.....»»
Fusion simulations reveal the multi-scale nature of tokamak turbulence
Creating efficient, self-sustaining fusion power requires good confinement of the heat in the plasma. Plasma confinement is limited by particle and energy losses due to turbulence. A new analysis has used a powerful supercomputer to study this turbul.....»»
Drones take to the waves: Saildrones are getting data where people can’t
They can monitor the Antarctic year round and sail straight into hurricanes. Enlarge / A Voyager-class saildrone. (credit: Saildrone) Science fiction often paints a terrifying picture of the future—think aliens decimat.....»»
Novel deep learning-based software detects and tracks individual cells with high precision
Cell growth and division are two of the most fundamental and essential features of life, and closely monitoring cell changes over time can give scientists key insights into dynamics of these biological processes. Time-lapse microscopy allows scientis.....»»
Sycope 2.3 detects network problems and identifies security threats
Sycope is introducing version 2.3 of its network monitoring and security tool. The solution is based on real-time flow analysis enriched with business context and supports companies in securing performance and improving IT security. The new version b.....»»
Study explores magnetosheath jets on Mars
Magnetosheath jets on Earth are plasma entities that have a higher dynamic pressure surrounding the plasma and can cause waves that transfer energy within such environments. Such jets also exist beyond Earth in the magnetosheath of Mars, as observed.....»»
Scientists Make Best-Yet Map of Solar System"s Interstellar Boundaries
Researchers have gained a new view of the journey ahead for the twin Voyager spacecraft and other probes bound on one-way trips into interstellar space.....»»
CHEOPS planet-hunter detects four rarely seen mini-Neptunes
Though they are thought to be the most common planet type in our galaxy, mini-Neptunes are rarely spotted because they are hard to detect......»»
iOS 17 automatically removes tracking parameters from links you click on
iOS 17 and macOS Sonoma include even more privacy-preserving features while browsing the web. Link Tracking Protection is a new feature automatically activated in Mail, Messages, and Safari in Private Browsing mode. It detects user-identifiable tra.....»»
Webb Space Telescope detects universe"s most distant complex organic molecules
Researchers have detected complex organic molecules in a galaxy more than 12 billion light-years away from Earth—the most distant galaxy in which these molecules are now known to exist. Thanks to the capabilities of the recently launched James Webb.....»»
Supercomputer simulations provide a better picture of the sun"s magnetic field
The sun's strong, dynamic magnetic field can catapult huge jets of plasma known as coronal mass ejections (CMEs) out into the solar system. Sometimes these hit Earth, where they can knock out power grids and damage satellites......»»
Small fusion experiment hits temperatures hotter than the sun"s core
To produce commercial energy, future fusion power plants will need to achieve temperatures of 100 million degrees C. To do so requires careful control of the plasma. In a study published in the journal Nuclear Fusion, researchers refined operating co.....»»
