Locked in: NASA’s observatory reaches one-million-mile orbit to study Earth’s UV glow
NASA’s Carruthers Geocorona Observatory has reached its target orbit, marking a major milestone for the mission. The ...
(WHTM) — It’s so simple to understand. Objects orbiting the Earth are not going fast enough to escape Earth’s gravity, but are going fast enough that they don’t fall back down. They ceaselessly fall ...
Research has shown that the Earth trails an asteroid barely a kilometer across in its orbit about the Sun – only the second such body to have ever been spotted. It goes around the Sun on average two ...
Control of chaos in the vicinity of the Earth–Moon L5 Lagrangian point to keep a spacecraft in orbit
The concept of Space Manifold Dynamics is a new method of space research. We have applied it along with the basic idea of the method of Ott, Grebogi and York (OGY method) to stabilize the motion of a ...
