Zoom into the interacting Penguin and Egg galaxies
Переглядів 282Місяць тому
This video takes us on a journey through space to the interacting galaxies known as Arp 142. The distorted spiral galaxy at the centre, the Penguin, and the compact elliptical galaxy at the left, the Egg, are locked in an active embrace. A new near- and mid-infrared image from the James Webb Space Telescope, taken to mark its second year of science, shows that their interaction is marked by a f...
A Tour Of The Serpens Nebula
Переглядів 282 місяці тому
This video tours the Serpens Nebula, a star-forming region that lies 1,300 light-years away from Earth. A new image of Serpens from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope shows an intriguing group of aligned protostellar outflows within one region of the nebula. Protostellar outflows are formed when jets of gas spewing from newborn stars collide with nearby gas and dust at high speeds. This region i...

Zooming into NGC 6164
Переглядів 1274 місяці тому
This zoom video transports us from a broad view of the Milky Way in the sky all the way to the cloudy nebula NGC 6164/6165 (also known as the Dragon’s Egg), home to the fascinating star system HD 148937 right at its centre. Using nine years of data from the ESO’s Very Large Telescope Interferometer and other telescopes, astronomers have inferred that this pair of stars used to be a trio, until ...
April 2024 Total Solar Eclipse seen from Space
Переглядів 8715 місяців тому
A total solar eclipse swept across North America yesterday, blocking out the Sun momentarily with parts of the continent plunged into darkness. Geostationary satellites orbiting 36,000 km away captured images of the rare celestial event. These images, captured by the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES-16), captured the moon’s shadow moving across North America from approxim...

There's a legacy of NASA spacecraft carrying inspirational messages into the cosmos, and Europa Clipper will continue this tradition when it launches in October 2024 to Europa, a moon of Jupiter that shows strong evidence of an ocean under its icy crust. A triangular plate seals an opening in the spacecraft’s vault, which protects Europa Clipper’s electronics from Jupiter’s radiation. The plate...

Ingenuity Mars Helicopter Says Goodbye #ThanksIngenuity
Переглядів 437 місяців тому
The Mars Ingenuity Helicopter flew for the last time on Jan. 18, 2024, and NASA concluded its flight operations after post-flight imagery confirmed damage to at least one of the rotorcraft’s rotor blades that rendered it no longer capable of flight. As the historic mission comes to its end, Ingenuity’s team reflects on some of their favourite moments and memories from the helicopter’s time on M...

2023 was Earth’s warmest year since 1880, and the last 10 consecutive years have been the warmest 10 on record. But why does NASA, a space agency, look at Earth’s temperature? And how do we even measure global temperature?

I bet this is an absolutely life altering, brain chemical mixing experience
it really does look like a Penguin
Anyone know what beach they were watching this from?
Isla park.you get off the bridge and take a right.
What do you see, Kaneda?
Bull shit
That’s beautiful. Thanks for sharing this.

hi
Probably one of the best starship launch videos out there. Nothing like the very first launch attempt, and nothing like the excitement when it actually clears the pad and flies!
😮😮😮
interesting video
💀💀
Very interesting!!
Wow
love it
Hi, what is with the stupid back ground noise???????????????
I clicked on it and after about a minute I was wondering where the rest of the show was......wanted more. Really cool, though
NASA, defund those betches

Looks like a debris field. And they zoom fast past some really odd shapes rocks. And the black pixels?

Amazing

It’s a step, you pessimist
Italians eat pork, ham and bacon. And they live the longest.
The Kerbals would approve.
GO STARSHIP!
Ingenuity is one of the simplest but most amazing craft ever built to visit another planet.
So they only planned to fly it 5 times?
Biggest waste of tax payers money, we already know what the surface looks like.
We know how small parts of the surface looks like. However to find good landing spots and places where it could be worth to dig or to drill, you need to cover large distances close to the ground with a camera. Also, there's no place on earth where we could properly replicate the atmosphere of mars. So knowing that it flies so well really assures scientists that their models and computer predictions are extremely close to reality. So far this little tough guy exceeded all expectations and opened up new insights on flight in general and on using conventional and cheap flying methods to explore other planets or moons.
Do you use a mobile phone? Do you use a computer? Do you watch movies, take digital photographs, use lithium batteries? Where do you think all that technology came from? All because of cutting edge research done by scientists, engineers, logistics people, administrators at organizations like NASA, CERN, ESA, and many other advanced research and engineering institutes around the world. They created our current world decades ago and are creating the future right now by pushing the boundaries of what is possible. We all benifit, even those, like you, who lack imagination.
Someone needs to tell me how it can fly, does mars have an atmosphere of some sort
Ingenuity has flown for over 89 minutes and more than 7.1 miles (11.6 kilometers). Mar's atmosphere is much thinner than Earths-It's atmospheric volume is less than 1% of Earth's. A propeller driven craft does need an atmosphere of some degree to achieve flight.
There's no air. How it flew ?
There is air. But it's extremely thin and only about 1% as dense as on earth. So you couldn't breath it. Scientists were sceptic that it would fly there at all. But the experiment went exactly like the predictions.
Amazing!
And we still can’t make a rear view mirror with objects seen to proper scale!
This is exciting but its been 50+ years since we've been to to moon you would think the advance in technology since then would make things so simple to just put humans there and skip the fly around
Why not LAND on the moon? You already did it once, right? 🤔
Because it's a brand new space craft. Test test test. Then you go.
They got black man n girl only for diversity lol what a joke world
To infinity and beyond...
So awesome! Thank you for sharing this. I love learning about stuff like this. Are you doing Matariki this year?
Kia ora! Thanks for watching - and yes! We will be open in time for Matariki and will have a new program. Be sure to keep an eye on our social media for more specific details closer to the time.
I still can’t believe everything that is out there
