The world's first satellites outside the earth's orbit transmit a radio signal to our planet

NASA indicating a radio signals received that the world's first satellites of the "kubsat" format, moving in outer space beyond the limits of the orbit of our planet, are in good working order and operate in the regular mode. The first signal was received yesterday at 20:15 UTC, and the second - almost two hours after the first - at 21:58 UTC. 

Scientists mission OSIRIS-REx hope to find organic asteroid Bennu

In September 2016, NASA plans to launch a spacecraft returned to study the asteroid. This mission will help scientists better understand the composition of asteroids, their origins aspacecraft nd perhaps even the origin of the Earth. The mission OSIRIS-REx (Origins-Spectral Interpretation-Resource Identification-Security-Regolith Explorer) will allow lifting the veil of secrecy over the history of the formation of the Sun and planets. 

Scientists have mapped the Pluto in format Google Earth

Community service Google Earth can now explore the dwarf planet Pluto on a map drawn on the basis of images from the spacecraft, "New Horizons" by NASA. The interactive map gives a preliminary idea of what it looks like, this distant planet.

NASA probe discovers the 'heart' of Pluto

New Horizons spacecraft gets closer and closer to Pluto and as it does capture historical images. One of the last photographs revealed a nearly perfect heart on the surface of the dwarf planet. It will also catch a few bright spots that can be icecaps.

Kepler Spacecraft Should Pin Down 'Alien Earth' Planets Despite Glitch

NASA's planet-hunting Kepler spacecraft should be able to achieve its primary mission goal regardless of whether or not it can bounce back from a recent malfunction, researchers say.

Kepler launched in March 2009 on a 3.5-year prime mission to determine how common Earth-like planets are throughout the Milky Way galaxy. 

NASA Spacecraft Photographs Pluto's Largest Moon Charon

A NASA spacecraft bound for Pluto has captured its first photo of the dwarf planet's largest moon Charon, a cosmic snapshot snapped from nearly 550 million miles away.

The new Charon photo was taken by NASA's New Horizons spacecraft, which is closing in on Pluto and due to fly by the icy world in July 2015. The black-and-white image shows Charon as a dim object that is near, but clearly separate from, the brighter object that is Pluto.

At the tail of the heliosphere found surprising image

Spacecraft NASA Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) recent initiates the first images showing the whole entire "leeward" side of the sun, the structure of which was a surprise to scientists.

When the sun moves through our galaxy, the Milky Way behind it reaches the "tail" of solar particles, like the tail of a comet. Previously, 

Orion: multipurpose spacecraft system

Orion - a multi-purpose reusable manned spacecraft currently is in the development stage. The first test flight is scheduled for September 2014. This ship, in addition to delivery of cargo and astronauts to the ISS, is also intended to fly beyond the near-Earth space: the moon, asteroids, Mars and beyond. Orion will be the first such device since the Apollo missions.

Oceanography satellite Jason-1 makes his final bow

The world superstar oceanography satellite, spacecraft, served for a total of 11.5 years. A joint project of NASA and the center of Centre National d "Etudes Spatiales (CNES), the satellite to study sea level Jason-1 was retired this week after losing their last remaining the satellite transmitter.

Launched in December 2001, initially with a planned service life of 3 to 5 years, Jason-1 has helped to create a huge database on the topography of the oceans for the 20-year period, 

Search for life on Mars spacecraft sterilization

On Mars, there are aliens, and they came to the Earth. Paradoxically, this argument is designed to ease the process of sterilization, which must pass each spacecraft so as not to bring the Red Planet terrestrial microbes.

These limitations have made the search for life on Mars is costly and inefficient, 

Three Chinese Astronauts Land After Record-Breaking Spaceflight

A Chinese space capsule carrying three astronauts returned safely to Earth Tuesday (June 25), wrapping up the longest manned space mission in the nation's history.

The Shenzhou 10 spacecraft touched down at 8:08 p.m. EDT Tuesday (0008 GMT), capping a 15-day mission to China's orbitingTiangong 1 lab module. The spacecraft landed in northern China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, where the local time was 8:08 a.m. on Wednesday.

The spacecraft for the collision of an asteroid in 2022

Scientists from Europe and the U.S. to confidently move promote in their plans to make a deliberate collision of a spacecraft with a giant asteroid in 2022 to look into the depths of such visitations.

Ambitious European mission Asteroid Impact and Deflection Assessment, or AIDA, consisting of two satellites (one of which will be built by scientists from the U.S., and the second - the European Space Agency), is scheduled to start a three-year journey to the asteroid Didymus and his companion. Didim not dangerous for the Earth, so it is well suited for this kind of research, scientists said the mission at the 44th Annual Conference of the moon and planets, on Tuesday, March 19.

MESSENGER sees the smooth side of Mercury

During the two years of its location in orbit around Mercury, NASA's MESSENGER spacecraft has made ​​more than 150,000 images of the planet closest to the Sun, the solar system, first giving us the opportunity to think about the extremely rough, parched surface of the planet in feature. But not all areas on Mercury look stern and sinister: it also has a smooth side, you can see on the picture, published today.

Here we see the smooth sides and bottom Mercurian irregular depressions in high definition. 

NASA explore are preparing for the lunar landing

Lunar orbiting spacecraft, NASA, which allowed scientists to learn more about the internal structure and composition of the Moon, are preparing for a controlled landing on a mountain near the North Pole of the Moon on December 17. Probes are sent to the lunar surface on purpose, because their low orbit and the low fuel level prevent further scientific activities.

Supplies to Space Station

A Russian Progress transport ship was on 31 October sent up to the International Space Station with fresh supplies.

Last Wednesday, the 31st October, was a Progress spacecraft re-launched from the Baikonur space center in Kazakhstan.

Less than six hours after the start arrived Progress 49 to the ISS. The number 49 refers to the 49th once a Progress vehicle flying goods to the orbiting outpost in space. 

NASA can handle their robots in 3D

NASA today unveils an application to learn how to handle some of their robots in 3D, as "Curiosity", which will land on Mars on 6 August.

The application is available for free for iPhone and iPad.

"Spacecraft 3D" uses animations to show how they can maneuver and manipulate the external components of the ship.

An unmanned spacecraft X-37B U.S. Air Force

Space plane Air Force landed on separately in a military base in California, following a secret mission 15 months. The unit conducted experiments in orbit after its launch in March of 2011 the Air Force Station in Cape Canaveral in Florida, authorities said. The unmanned spacecraft is the second of its kind to land autonomously on Vandenberg Air Force, 209 kilometers (130 miles) northwest of Los Angeles.

The device is described as a combination between a satellite and a spacecraft.

The European Space Agency launched on Sunday the most compound and determined aircraft in its history: the Automated Transfer Vehicle (TAV).The Ariane quickly soar through the clouds of Kourou. This device, while mission is to supply the International Space Station (ISS), out into space from the launch base in Kourou, French Guiana.

The output of the VAT-named Jules Verne was confined to the O4: 03 GMT powered by the Ariane5 rocket.
