The U.S. is restricting sales of satellite imagery from conflict zones, effectively leaving its European NATO allies with major intelligence blind spots. Here’s how European satellite operators are adapting to this new reality and building their own military space reconnaissance capabilities.
Artificial intelligence is turning satellites into autonomous image analysts. But alongside greater accuracy comes the risk of AI hallucinations that can distort what they “see.” How neural networks learned to interpret our world — and why they sometimes get it wrong.
At the end of May, the SMILE mission launched – a joint ESA-China venture to study Earth’s magnetic shield. The spacecraft will image our planet’s battle with the solar wind using unique instruments, helping protect infrastructure from space weather storms.
SpaceX is preparing for its Nasdaq IPO under ticker SPCX. How did Elon Musk’s space startup become an orbital powerhouse valued at $1.75–2 trillion? Today we break down Starlink’s financial secrets, xAI investment plans, and potential pitfalls for future investors.
Although NASA has strict requirements for future astronauts, it still attracts many applicants. NASA looks for people with excellent professional fitness, emotional intelligence, and psychological resilience — read below to learn more about mandatory requirements and the selection process.
We associate space with the silence of the vacuum, but few people realize that space has its own odor. What aromas do astronauts smell aboard the ISS, and how does the James Webb Space Telescope “smell” the atmospheres of distant exoplanets? Today, we uncover the surprisingly smelly chemical mysteries of the Universe!
Today, orbital stations are becoming biotechnology hubs, where microgravity helps create medicines that cannot be produced on Earth. Read on to learn how research conducted 400 km above the planet is shaping the future of the global pharmaceutical industry and saving lives.
The shift of the space sector toward a militarized paradigm is perhaps the most significant development of the past decade. After the Cold War, the world was inspired by peaceful exploration. However, geopolitical tensions have marked the return of space as a critical domain for national security.
Who was the first to attempt to measure the Earth and the cosmos or to investigate where the cosmic “ladders” lead? What instruments do scientists today use to study how fast the Universe is expanding or to investigate large-scale galaxy clusters? Find out in our article.
Radiation, oxygen shortages, communication delays, and a complex landing — these are the main challenges of a Mars mission. We explore what solutions NASA is already developing and when the flight could become a realit
