The PDS Management Council serves as the technical policy board of the PDS, and provides findings for NASA with respect to planetary science data management, ensures coordination among the nodes, guarantees responsiveness to customer needs, and monitors the appropriate uses of evolving information technologies that may make PDS tasks both more ...
The PDS red flag warning below was issued by the National Weather Service in Reno, Nevada, on December 19, 2017. [7] On August 3, 2018, the National Weather Service in Reno, Nevada, issued another PDS red flag warning to communicate the threat of life-threatening fire danger due to strong gusty winds and low humidity.
neat.jpl.nasa.gov Near-Earth Asteroid Tracking ( NEAT ) was a program run by NASA and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory , surveying the sky for near-Earth objects . NEAT was conducted from December 1995 until April 2007, at GEODSS on Hawaii (Haleakala-NEAT; 566 ), as well as at Palomar Observatory in California (Palomar-NEAT; 644 ).
[1] [7] In 2019, the Planetary Defense Coordination Office decided to fund this mission outside NASA's science budget due to its national security implications. [9] [10] On 11 June 2021, NASA authorized the NEO Surveyor mission to proceed to the preliminary design phase. [11] The Jet Propulsion Laboratory will lead development of the mission. [1]
The James Webb Space Telescope detected water vapor swirling around a planetary system 370 light-years away.
Ed Stone, who guided NASA's breakthrough Voyager mission to the outer planets and led the Jet Propulsion Laboratory when it landed its first rover on Mars, has died. Ed Stone, JPL director and top ...
JPL and the Space Age was created in 2022 [2] to inform users about JPLs contributions and missions. JPL and the Space Age started airing on NASA TV and JPLs website. The first episode released for the franchise was The American Rocketeer, releasing in January of 2022. [3] The series later migrated to NASA+ in November 2023. [4]
The radio frequencies used for spacecraft communication are in the microwave part of the radio spectrum; S band (2.29–2.30 GHz), X band (8.40–8.50 GHz) and Ka band (31.8–32.3 GHz). In addition to receiving radio signals from the spacecraft ( downlink signals), the antennas also transmit commands to the spacecraft ( uplink signals) with ...
