Rosetta's scientists are doing every bit of science they can before the European Space Agency crashes the probe into the comet it's been studying. In fact, the spacecraft's Micro-Imaging Dust Analysis ...

Over the last few years we have witnessed the expansion of additive manufacturing using 3D printers from utilization as a prototyping tool to increasing implementation on the plant floor. The rapid ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. The Universe is out there, waiting for you to discover it. Moreover, the stars cluster together in a great plane spanning the sky, ...

Code for modeling dust re-emission and constraining dust extinction $A_V$ for Little Red Dots (LRDs). See our paper for the description of methods and results: Dust ...

NASA's Webb Telescope, which is equipped with very advanced infrared capabilities, recently caught the glowing echo of this light. These echoes allowed astronomers to take a new, high-quality image of ...

If humankind is to one day colonise Mars, we will need to learn how to produce most of the food and equipment we need to survive on the Red Planet itself. This is because taking materials into space ...

A new technique could allow the first humans on Mars to 3D print everything from tools to temporary housing out of a tough rubber-like material — using only Martian dust. The method could enable the ...

To support a potential future lunar base, researchers at the European Space Agency (ESA) have 3D printed and baked fake Moon dust into screws, gears, and even a coin. Both private and government space ...

Space dust is beautiful. See for yourself in the video above, which takes you on a voyage through the ghostly wisps of dust strewn across the Milky Way. These images are part of a three-dimensional ...

Scientists in the US are making detailed 3D maps of the cavities carved by comet dust in blocks of foam carried by Nasa's Stardust spacecraft. Stardust visited Comet Wild 2 in 2004, catching samples ...
