Webb telescope just stared into the heart of a fascinating galaxy
Posted by Shubham Ghosh Roy in categories: energy, space
The James Webb Space Telescope is so powerful that it can vividly see stars in a galaxy 17 million light-years away.
Astronomers pointed the most advanced space observatory ever built at the galaxy NGC 5,068, peering deep into its starry core. The greater goal is to better grasp how stars, like our energy-providing sun, form and evolve in galaxies. Crucially, Webb views a type of light that’s invisible to the naked eye, called infrared light. These long infrared light waves pierce through thick clouds of cosmic dust and gas, allowing us unprecedented views into galactic hearts.
“With its ability to peer through the gas and dust enshrouding newborn stars, Webb is the perfect telescope to explore the processes governing star formation,” the European Space Agency, which collaborates on the telescope with NASA and the Canadian Space Agency, wrote. Solar systems born enveloped in cosmic dust simply can’t be seen with visible light telescopes like Hubble, the space agency said.

This message from outer space is an unprecedented test. And you can help decode it
Posted by Jose Ruben Rodriguez Fuentes in category: space
An experiment called “A Sign from Space” is meant to explore the process of decoding a signal from the cosmos and its impact on humanity. And you can be a part of it.
Mars Express has been orbiting Mars for the past 20 years, sending back data on the vast landscape of the Red Planet along the way. Slight technical delays have hampered these views, and sometimes the images take hours and even days to transmit to Earth.

Military drone attacks human operator during simulation
Posted by Raphael Ramos in categories: business, drones, military, robotics/AI, space
The AI drone decided to eliminate the operator in a simulation, because the operator denied its request to proceed with eliminating the target.
Military groups are only some of many organizations researching artificial intelligence, but one astounding simulation by the United States Air Force found that artificial intelligence rebelled against its operator in a fatal attack to accomplish its mission.
Artificial intelligence continues to evolve and impact every sector of business, and it was a popular topic of conversation during the Future Combat Air & Space Capabilities Summit at the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAS) headquarters in London on May 23 and May 24. According to a report by the RAS, presentations discussing the use of AI in defense abounded.

For the first time ever, 17 people were in Earth orbit at the same time
Posted by Gemechu Taye in category: space
The new record was set when China’s three-person Shenzhou 16 mission took to the skies on May 29.
We have a new record for the highest number of people orbiting Earth at any one time. For a short time, the number of people in orbit totaled 17 off-world explorers from a total of five different countries.
The new record was set after the launch of China’s three-person Shenzhou 16 mission on Monday, May 29 at 9:31 p.m. EDT. The previous record was 14 people in orbit, set when the private Inspiration 4 mission took to the skies in September 2021.
