The days are ticking away before NASA's massive new observatory shows us the cosmos as we've never seen it before. The good news is that so far, the $10 billion observatory is blowing expectations away as it enters a stretch of long-anticipated science work that mission personnel hope could last as long as 20 years.
A U.S. military proposal to blast hypersonic weapons out of the sky is entering a new phase. DARPA is seeking proposals "to conduct wind tunnel and flight testing of jet interaction effects" for its innovative Glide Breaker project.
The United Kingdom is getting serious about beaming solar power from space. Over 50 British technology organizations, including heavyweights such as aerospace manufacturer Airbus, Cambridge University and satellite maker SSTL, have joined the U.K. Space Energy Initiative.
Just the Facts, Ma'am "I stopped watching TV news a year ago, so sick of the bias everywhere. But in doing so, I was out of the loop. I decided to give 1440 a try & I've not been disappointed. Finally, Walter Cronkite style reporting! Just the facts. I also love that I can click a link to see more on many stories. Keep up the good work!" Join for free now.

The inflationary epoch that caused our universe to rapidly expand in its earliest moments may be connected to the modern era of dark energy, thanks to a phantom component of the cosmos that changes the strength of gravity as the universe evolves, a physicist proposes in a new paper.
Climate change is the long-term, continued shifting of temperatures and weather patterns on planet Earth; an evolution driven by human activities. In the over 4.5 billion years that Earth has existed, orbiting the sun in the small stellar neighborhood we call home, our planet has gone through many changes. But humans have had a profound impact.
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) announced May 4 that it's seeking proposals for the second and third phases of a project to design, develop and assemble a nuclear thermal rocket engine for an expected flight demonstration in Earth orbit by 2026.
It's been nearly two years to the day since the world learned that the next live-action, "Star Trek" spin-off would see Anson Mount returning as captain of the USS Enterprise and the patience of the show's fan has finally been rewarded with the new series "Strange New Worlds" on Paramount Plus.
