The satellite is designed to act as a communication relay between Chang’e missions (including the Chang'e 6) and Earth. The satellite was announced as operational in April. In April, NASA launched a next-generation solar sail demonstration aboard a Rocket Lab Electron. [66] [67] ESA EarthCARE launched on May 28. Joint mission with JAXA.
In search-for-life-on-other-planets news, a study published this week in the journal Nature Astronomy revealed evidence of a magnetic field on the rocky exoplanet YZ Ceti b, which orbits a star ...
Euclid is a wide-angle space telescope with a 600-megapixel camera to record visible light, a near-infrared spectrometer, and photometer, to determine the redshift of detected galaxies. It was developed by the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Euclid Consortium and was launched on 1 July 2023 from Cape Canaveral in Florida. [10] [11]
European Space Agency's (ESA) Euclid satellite was launched towards Sun-Earth L2 point by a Falcon 9 rocket on July 1. The satellite observes distant galaxies to study dark matter and dark energy . ISRO launched Aditya-L1 to study the Sun on September 2.

N2YO provides real time tracking and pass predictions with orbital paths and footprints overlaid on Google Maps. [6] It features an alerting system that automatically notifies users via SMS and/or email before International Space Station crosses the local sky. The N2YO.com system powers ESA's, Space.com's and many other's satellite tracking web ...
Solar System space probes operational as of November 2024. This is a list of active space probes which have escaped Earth orbit. It includes lunar space probes, but does not include space probes orbiting at the Sun–Earth Lagrangian points (for these, see List of objects at Lagrangian points). A craft is deemed "active" if it is still able to ...
Gaia is a space observatory of the European Space Agency (ESA), launched in 2013 and expected to operate until Spring 2025. The spacecraft is designed for astrometry: measuring the positions, distances and motions of stars with unprecedented precision, [6] [7] and the positions of exoplanets by measuring attributes about the stars they orbit such as their apparent magnitude and color.
