La misión china Tianwen-2 ha capturado las primeras imágenes cercanas del asteroide Kamo'oalewa, un cuasisatélite de la Tierra descubierto en 2016. El objetivo es recoger muestras para analizar su origen, debatiéndose si es un fragmento lunar o un asteroide del cinturón principal.
JAXA's Hayabusa2 mission successfully altered an asteroid's orbit, demonstrating advanced technology to potentially deflect Earth-bound threats. Mission control confirmed the spacecraft responded perfectly to commands from 100 million km away.
A compilation of recent scientific discoveries and astronomical events, including identified repeating radio signals from space, mysterious compounds on Pluto and Titan, an observable giant asteroid, a study on Earth's fate, a detailed image of the Milky Way's center, new insights into the universe's uniformity, satellite data on Venezuelan earthquakes, a global fungal map, and a new fossil axolotl species.
Apophis asteroidi, 13 Nisan 2029'da Dünya'ya 31.600 km mesafeden geçecek. Bilim insanları, uygun koşullarda milyonlarca kişinin bu tarihi olayı çıplak gözle izleyebileceğini belirtti.
Çin'in Tianwen-2 uzay aracı, Dünya'nın nadir "yarı uydularından" Kamoʻoalewa'nın ilk yakın plan görüntülerini gönderdi. Gökbilimciler, asteroidin Ay'dan kopmuş bir parça olup olmadığını ve yapısını inceleyecek.
Asteroid 99942 Apophis will pass 31,600 km from Earth on April 13, 2029, becoming visible to the naked eye globally. Initially feared as a threat, it's now a research opportunity to study its internal response to Earth's gravity.
Asteroid Apophis will make a historically close, yet safe, flyby of Earth on April 13, 2029, visible to the naked eye globally. Scientists are preparing to study its behavior under Earth's gravitational influence.
La sonda Hayabusa2 de la JAXA realizó un sobrevuelo de prueba a 800 metros del asteroide Torifune para evaluar tecnologías de desvío de rocas espaciales peligrosas, recopilando datos cruciales para la defensa planetaria.
Japan's Hayabusa2 spacecraft successfully flew by asteroid Torifune as part of an extended mission. Hours later, China's Tianwen-2 arrived at asteroid Kamoʻoalewa, aiming to collect samples and return them to Earth by late 2027.
China's Tianwen-2 spacecraft has begun scientific exploration of asteroid 469219 Kamo‘oalewa (2016 HO3), which appears smaller than previously estimated, measuring about 20-30 meters across instead of 40-100 meters.
Der Komet 3l/Atlas, ein Besucher aus einem anderen Planetensystem, ist mindestens doppelt so alt wie unsere Sonne. Beobachtungen zeigen, dass er in der Umgebung eines jungen Sterns einer früheren Generation entstanden sein muss.
Researchers identified the source of mysterious repeating radio signals from space. A global map of the fungal network supporting plant life and climate regulation was created. The Euclid space telescope captured a detailed image of the Milky Way's center. A new fossil axolotl species was found in Mexico. Earthquakes in Mexico, Norway, and Venezuela were documented, with seismic activity linked to sports victories and seismic doublets. Satellite imagery revealed the impact of Venezuelan earthquakes and how space lasers can track crustal shifts.
China's Tianwen-2 space probe has reached the near-Earth asteroid Kamo'oalewa after a 400-day journey. Launched in May 2025, the mission aims to collect asteroid samples, a first for China, potentially offering insights into solar system formation.
Chinas "Tianwen 2"-Sonde hat nach 400 Tagen Flug den Asteroiden Kamo'oalewa erreicht. Sie sammelt Proben zur Erde, die 2027 landen sollen. Danach fliegt die Sonde weiter zum Kometen 311P.
Chinas Raumsonde Tianwen-2 hat nach rund 400 Tagen Flug den erdnahen Asteroiden Kamo'oalewa erreicht. Die Sonde soll Proben sammeln und zur Erde bringen, was China zum dritten Land machen würde, das Asteroidenmaterial zur Erde bringt.
Japan's Hayabusa2 probe performed a fly-by of asteroid Torifune, testing technology to deflect potentially hazardous space rocks. The mission aims to assess precise trajectory control for future deflection missions.
Japan's Hayabusa2 probe performed a close fly-by of asteroid Torifune, testing technology to potentially deflect dangerous space rocks. The mission aims to assess precise trajectory control for future deflection scenarios.
Die japanische Raumsonde Hayabusa 2 hat einen erfolgreichen Testflug in unmittelbarer Nähe des erdnahen Asteroiden Torifune absolviert. Ziel war es, die präzise Steuerung der Sonde für zukünftige Missionen zur Ablenkung von Himmelskörpern zu prüfen.
