Finland-based Rovio Entertainment, the creator of the Angry Birds franchise, has announced its newest game ”Angry Birds Space”, which was developed in cooperation with NASA. For nearly 3 years, millions of gamers have used physics in the battle between birds and pigs in the video game Angry Birds. NASA and Rovio are working together to teach people about physics and space exploration through the…

There will be a 300-degree difference in temperature between the two sides • James Webb’s instruments must be very cold to ensure their own infrared glow does not swamp the observations • The mission will laun…

p up rocky fragments from the Martian moon Phobos and bring them back for study in Earth laboratories. Phobos-Grunt was successfully launched on 8 November, entering a “parking orbit” some 345km above the Earth. But the spacecraft then failed to push on to the Red Planet as planned. For some reason, its big boost engine did not fire. Attempts to contact the spacecraft and diagnose the…

uite of radar, laser and optical sensors aligned Shenzhou with Tiangong. The capsule’s thrusters then drove it into the space lab’s docking ring. The union happened at an altitude of about 340 km (210 miles). Liu Yang operated a handheld video camera to record the moment of docking. Thirty-three-year old Liu Yang flies with Commander Jing Haipeng, 46, and fellow flight engineer, Liu W…

The behavior of the positron excess across this energy spectrum fits with the researchers’ expectations. However, the “smoking gun” signature would be t…

Sally Ride joined NASA in 1978 – one of 35 people selected as astronauts from a field of more than 8,000 who applied. She went on her first space shuttle mission on board the Challenger in 1983.

In June 2011, a piece of debris came within 335 m (1,100 ft) of the platform. The ISS is currently manned by three Russians, two Americans and a Japanese astronaut. They were ordered by ground control to move into two Soyuz escape capsules in…

A motivated nation could build a startram system capable of launching 300,000 tons of payload into orbit for less than $40/kg,” say the space train’s creators. The system would “shoot” capsules into orbit, accelerating a sealed cargo capsule to a speed of 5 miles…

China is about to launch its fourth manned space mission and is sending a crew of three, including the nation’s first female astronaut, to the orbiting Tiangong space lab. Chinese Shenzhou-9 capsule is set to lift off from the Jiuquan spaceport on the edge of the Gobi desert at 18:37 local time (10:37 GMT). A Long March 2F rocket will put the astronauts on a path to dock with Tiangong in a…

Once at the museum, the Enterprise will be hoisted by crane to a deck. The museum is housed at a 900-foot-long aircraft carrier that was used during World War II an…

Since 1884, the first Monday in September has been a holiday in the US, as a tribute to workers. Canada has the same, while many other countries have International Workers Day – May Day – instead, commemorating struggles for workers’ rights. This year’s Labor Day falls on Monday, September 3rd. To most people in North America, however, Labor Day is above all the last-blast…

But an asteroid that size would not make a 200 km-diameter crater,” said Dr. Jason Moore. “So we said: how do we get something that has enough energy to generate that size of crater, but has much less rocky material? That brings u…
