The ESA are about to launch two satellites that will create on-demand eclipses to allow continual study of the sun's corona. One satellite will deploy a disk to block the sun from the view of the other satellite.
The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered the existence of free floating pairs of Jupiter size planets, unconnected to any stars in the Orion nebula, nicknamed JuMBOs (Jupiter Mass Binary Objects).
NASA has turned to AI to generate the design of components to use during space flight that reduce the amount of materials used, and thus weight, while also being better at stress and bearing. The designs reduced stress factors by 10 times and weight by 66%.
Commercial space company Momentus successfully used a distilled water based propulsion system called Microwave Electrothermal Thruster (MET) to raise the altitude of a satellite in orbit.
Other than the main tracking feature of GPS, the system can also be used to detect and monitor in a range of additional and unique situations. The amount of snow on the ground can be measured from GPS signal noise, it can used to detect earthquakes, monitor volcanoes, and to analyse the atmosphere.
Todd Humphreys from the University of Texas has figured out how to unofficially piggyback on Starlink synchronisation sequences and repurpose them as a positioning system with 30 metre accuracy.
