Staff at the Chandra Operations Control Center help ensure the health and safety of the Chandra X-Ray Observatory, a spacecraft that orbits above the Earth's atmosphere to detect X-ray emission from very hot regions of the universe. The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory oversees the Chandra X-ray Observatory's research and flight operations.

Perseverance is already collecting science on the surface of Mars, but MEDLI2 actually collected significant scientific data on the way to the surface. NASA EDGE Co-Host Franklin Fitzgerald talked with Mars Entry Descent and Landing Instrument 2 (MEDLI2) Principal Investigator Todd White about how NASA is continuing to learn about the very dramatic and mysterious transition through the Martian atmosphere all the way down to the surface. Basically, MEDLI studied and stuck the landing! Producer: Blair Allen, NASA EDGE

Sagas in the Sky explores some of the stories behind the celestial objects in the night sky. In this episode, we look at the story behind Pluto and Hades.

In this week's Space Report, we of course cover the Gagarins flight anniversary, as well as the first space shuttle launch anniversary. Sadly Ingenuity won't make it to celebrate with a flight of its own, but it will fly just a little later. SpaceX also is celebrating the first drone landing of its Falcon 9 booster, marking the debut of ts domination over the industry. Next, we have Axiom Space. The company has produced images of the largest window ever made for space, and it will soon be a part of Axiom Space Station, the company's vision of Nasa's call for commercial destinations. This week's deeper dive is about the Vulcan Centaur Rocket. While not as revolutionary as the Starship, it will still offer a major evolution from the previous heavy launcher. The Centaur V upper Stage will feature in-orbit refuelling and its highly efficient engine will carry large payloads towards the Moon. Of course, we have the usual SpaceX news, but this week relatively few things to say about Starship. I have made an estimate of when will SN15 fly though, tell me your own prognostic in the comments. And last but not least, the European Space Agency is recruiting new astronauts. See below for the details. Timestamps: 0:00 Introduction 0:13 Gagarin 60th anniversary 0:42 Space Shuttle first launch 1:21 SpaceX first drone landing 1:50 Axiom Space made a big window 2:10 Vulcan Centaur is almost ready 4:02 SpaceX News 5:05 When will SN15 launch? 5:37 Become an astronaut with ESA 6:21 Dragon relocation on the ISS 7:00 Closing thoughts # Donations If you enjoyed my content and want to help me make a living out of it, you can send me a tip if you like.

Welcome to Part Two of our deep dive into the Drake Equation. In the second part, we explore the temporal aspect of the Drake Equation and how it illuminates a path towards an alternative formalism - the Birth-Death formalism. Join us as we move forward to the bleeding edge of modern research on the Drake Equation. Written and presneted by Prof David Kipping. Thanks to Jason Wright and Nadia Drake for help with this video.

This Space Weather News forecast sponsored in part by Millersville University: https://www.millersville.edu/swen This week we have several coronal holes rotating through the Earth-strike zone, which could bring some more aurora over the early part of this upcoming week. Aurora photographers, especially at high latitudes should get a good show through mid-week, and photographers at mid-latitudes could catch some glimpses of aurora, especially through the early part of this week. On top of that we also have a new sunspot, region 2813 that is boosting the solar flux on Earth's dayside for radio amateurs and emergency responders alike to keep us in the marginal range for radio propagation. Even if this region fizzles, we will have some new bright regions rotating into Earth-view from the Sun's farside that should help maintain these marginal radio conditions throughout the week. Although the space weather may be a bit on the dull side, this is actually a blessing in disguise as the Ingenuity Helicopter begins its solo journey on the Red Planet. In the Martian Minute, we dive into the deployment of this little helicopter and why good weather is so important to it's survival. Learn more details about what is next for Ingenuity and when it will take it's first flight on Mars, find out more about the new sunspot and coming fast solar wind and how they might affect radio propagation and GPS reception, and see what else our Sun has in store!

Season 5 of the Expanse has come to an end, and there was an interesting bit of physics in the final episode. Was it possible for Naomi to actually make her ship spin in a circle? Let's sacrifice some Kerbals and look at physics to find an answer. #expanse #season5 #ksp
