Test masses carved from blocks of high purity gold-platinum alloy, and weighing nearly 2 kilograms, are flying aboard the LISA Pathfinder spacecraft in the development of systems that will detect gravitational waves as part of the forthcoming LISA space-based gravitational wave observatory.
Galaxies ‘waste’ large amounts of heavy elements generated by star formation by ejecting them up to a million light years away into their surrounding halos and deep space, according to a new study.
Job done. LISA Pathfinder, the European mission launched to see whether it would be possible to build a gravitational wave detector in space, has reported back that the answer is a resounding yes.
On Mars by 2025, people from earth will transform their kind into a multi-planet species, according to billionaire Elon Musk. His aerospace company, SpaceX, is working with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to send an unmanned mission to Mars in 2018, in advance of crewed missions, departing Earth in 2024 and arriving on
