PARIS (Reuters) -European scientists were poised to attempt a first in orbital gymnastics late on Monday, tapping into the gravity of the Moon and then the Earth in quick succession to guide the JUICE ...
To test this idea, the new study looks at an exoplanet known as VHS 1256b. It has a mass of around 20 Jupiters and is one of ...
I/ATLAS is expected to reach its closest distance to Jupiter on March 16, 2026. Its approach may coincide with Jupiter’s Hill radius, the edge of its gravitational influence. Scientists study whether ...
On 19–20 August 2024, ESA’s Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (Juice) will achieve a world first: using the gravity of the Moon and then Earth to bend its path through space, bringing it one step closer to ...
The Juno spacecraft now orbiting Jupiter has a suite of science instruments which will investigate the existence of a possible solid planetary core, map Jupiter’s intense magnetic field, measure the ...
This process served as a slingshot, allowing Earth’s gravity to put the brakes on Juice’s current trajectory and redirect it for a flyby of Venus in August 2025. Then, Juice can take a shortcut ...
COLUMBIA, Mo. – Scientists have attempted to disprove Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity for the better part of a century. After testing and confirming Einstein’s prediction in 2002 that ...
Just over a year after it was launched, the European Space agency’s Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) is returning towards Earth on Aug. 19-20 and will use the braking effect of its gravity to take a ...
