NASA Cloud-Based Platform Could Help Streamline, Improve Air Traffic
Just like your smartphone navigation app can instantly analyze information from many sources to suggest the best route to follow, a NASA-developed resource is now making data available to help the aviation industry do the same thing. To assist air traffic managers in keeping airplanes moving efficiently through the skies, information about weather, potential delays, 8230;. https://www.nasa.gov/aeron...#nasa #space #news #nasa_aeronautics #nasa_blogs #nasa_apollo_11 #nasa_artemis #nasa_astrophysics #nasa_galaxies #nasa_science_ &_research #nasa_the_universe #nasa_missions #nasa_spiral_galaxies #nasa_stars #nasa_supernovae #nasa_astronauts #nasa_former_astronauts #nasa_nasa_history #nasa_skylab

Hubble Measures the Distance to a Supernova
Measuring the distance to truly remote objects like galaxies, quasars, and galaxy clusters is a crucial task in astrophysics, particularly when it comes to studying the early universe, but its a difficult one to complete. We can only measure the distances to a few nearby objects like the Sun, planets, and some nearby stars directly. . https://science.nasa.gov/m...#nasa #space #news #nasa_astrophysics #nasa_galaxies #nasa_missions #nasa_spiral_galaxies #nasa_stars #nasa_supernovae #nasa_the_universe #nasa_astronauts #nasa_former_astronauts #nasa_nasa_history #nasa_skylab #nasa_artemis #nasa_artemis_2 #nasa_humans_in_space #nasa_kennedy_space_center #nasa_galaxy_clusters #nasa_nebulae #nasa_analog_field_testing #nasa_johnson_space_center #nasa_kjell_n ._lindgren #nasa_dark_matter #nasa_general

45 Years Ago: Skylab Reenters Earth’s Atmosphere
A few days before they left Skylab on Feb. 8, 1974, the final crew to occupy the station raised its altitude, hoping to keep it in orbit until a future space shuttle could revisit it. But higher than predicted solar activity caused the Earths atmosphere to expand, increasing drag on the large vehicle, causing its 8230;. https://www.nasa.gov/histo...#nasa #space #news #nasa_astronauts #nasa_former_astronauts #nasa_nasa_history #nasa_skylab #nasa_artemis #nasa_artemis_2 #nasa_humans_in_space #nasa_kennedy_space_center #nasa_astrophysics #nasa_galaxies #nasa_galaxy_clusters #nasa_nebulae #nasa_the_universe #nasa_missions #nasa_analog_field_testing #nasa_johnson_space_center #nasa_kjell_n ._lindgren #nasa_dark_matter #nasa_general #nasa_organizations

Electrical and Mechanical Technician Clifton Brown
We have a group photo of my first project here, ASTRO-H, and that one means a lot to me because I came to that NASA project fresh off the street. I was super scared and intimidated.
