Sub-Orbital Space Flights & Satellite Exploration
ANCHOR: A new discovery by NASA scientists shows that snow was vaporizing before reaching the Mars surface. The Mars Lander Phoenix helped the scientists discover water on this rocky planet. Lets take a look. STORY: Since touching down on Mars in late May the Phoenix lander has established that liquid water once flowed on the surface of the Red Planet. It now appears that snow falls there too. This image, recorded by the NASA explorer, detected snow, frost and cloud forming in the Martian atmosphere above the north pole. But the snow is vaporizing before it reaches the ground. NASA scientist Jim Whiteway said the mission was trying to find evidence that snow is actually landing on the surface – providing a tantalising clue that life may once have existed on Mars. [Jim Whiteway, NASA Lead Scientist]: “And we’re going to be watching very closely over the next month for evidence that the snow is actually landing on the surface. And this is a very important factor in the hydrological cycle on Mars, with the exchange of water between the surface and the atmosphere.” Time is short – the onset of the Martian winter will soon ‘kill-off’ the solar-powered lander. It’s already survived far longer than expected – but soon the sun will dip below the horizon until next April, consigning the craft to a dusty Martian grave.

Opportunity on Mars – February 18, 2005 Look through Opportunity’s “eyes” during its first 323 sols (days) on Mars. This video highlights images from Opportunity’s front hazard-avoidance camera during nearly a year’s worth of red planet roving.

If our first trip to the Moon was to beat the Russians and take some photos, the second journey to the Moon was for science. That was the gist of this award-winning NASA documentary, produced in 1972. See more at www.motherboard.tv

The most important images ever taken by Hubble space telescope. Beyond our universal Big Bang Little is known about the earliest moments of the Universe’s history. The Penrose-Hawking singularity theorems require the existence of a singularity at the beginning of cosmic time. However these theorems assume that general relativity is correct, but general relativity must break down before the Universe reaches the Planck temperature – 1,416785(71) 10^32K -, and a correct treatment of quantum gravity may avoid the singularity. Some proposals, each of which entails untested hypotheses are: * models including the Hartle-Hawking no-boundary condition in which the whole space and time is finite, the Big Bang does represent the limit of time, but without the need for a singularity. * brane cosmology in which the inflation is due to a movement of branes in string theory, the pre-Big Bang image; the ekpyrotic model, in which the Big Bang is the result of a collision between branes; and the cyclic model, a variant of the ekpyrotic model in which collisions occur periodically. In the later model, the Big Bang was preceded by a Big Crunch and the Universe endlessly cycles from one process to the other. The ekpyrotic model came out pf work by Neil Turok and Paul Steinhardt and maintains that the Universe did not start in a singularity, but came out from a collision of two branes (a spatially extended mathematical concept that appears in string theory and its relatives that exists in a …

Our Universe inside and Omniverse The Omniverse is the conceptual ensemble of all possible universes, with all possible laws of physics. In this physical cosmology context, the limitation of the definition of “universe” that it has only one set of “physical laws and constants that govern them” is extended to include multiple sets of physical laws and constants, each expressed as a wholly or partially separate universe. The term is used in quantum mechanics to differentiate the concept of a limited number of universes from all existent universes. Hierarchy within the Omniverse Universe: The inside description of a context that is relative in size/structure (attributes/modes) to the known universe that we inhabit. A universe, also known as a Cosmos, is a particular individual space-time organization with a specific number of dimensions of space and time and definite and specific laws of physics. Other Universes may have different numbers of dimensions of space and time and different laws of physics and constants than our own Universe. Multiverse: The part of the infinity that directly joins a given universe with all possible configurations of that universe. Metaverse: In string theory, the part that is along with, after; over also denoting change in the multiverse that houses the branes or film that each universe is said to be attached to and hang like individual sheets in a hypermagnetic wave with rhythms of hypercosmic strings going up and down that has a third element …

Owned and produced by Kimberly Mallett – Photographer Kimberly shares her stunning photos of the Winter Solstice -Christmas Lunar Eclipse as seen from Toronto Ontario December 21, 2010. Montage photos of Lunar Eclipse Start time: 12:13pm – 5:01am. The last time these astronomical events took place in sync was on Dec. 21, 1638, and it won’t happen again until at least 2094. I did not use a tripod, or remote and hand held to capture each photo. You will see the photos, as seen by my view, and through lens, no photo shopping was done. It was -7c. It was a amazing cosmic historical journey and blessed to experience. (: © Kimberly Mallett Photographer & Video – Photos are strictly forbidden to be copied or used. Photos are available.
