Traditionally, finding fuel-efficient paths for orbit transition has involved complex computations. Recently, researchers ...

The project was done without the benefit of new observations of the sky, but rather by leveraging Google Cloud technology to ...

While most of the team’s new finds are located in the main asteroid belt, about 100 are near-Earth asteroids that pass close ...

The environmentalist and astrodynamicist is employing ancient technology to help safeguard the dark and quiet sky ...

One of Starfield's companions can now wield the powers of a Starborn thanks to a new mod, adding a new gameplay mechanic.

Spacecraft navigators use something called heteroclinic orbits – often called heteroclinic connections – which are paths that ...

"Previously, when the likes of NASA wanted to plot a route, their calculations relied on either brute force or guesswork," Danny Owen, a postgraduate research student in astrodynamics at the ...

Scientists at the University of Surrey are developing a new way to power low-orbit spacecraft using – literally – thin air.

As space technology gets smaller and less expensive, more and more countries, universities and people can participate. We’ve ...

The paper is published in the journal Astrodynamics. The new method uses mathematics to reveal all possible routes from one orbit to another without guesswork or using enormous computer power.

A novel mathematical technique from the University of Surrey now simplifies space mission planning by mapping efficient ...

The Slingshot Platform transforms disparate space data into a common operating picture of the space domain by leveraging ...
