Scientists Create Largest Astrophysical Simulation of the Universe
New Frontier in Astrophysics: Scientists at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in the U.S. have created the largest astrophysical simulation of the Universe using the Frontier supercomputer.
This groundbreaking project aims to enhance our understanding of the evolution and physics of the Universe while delving into the mysteries of dark matter. With this simulation, researchers can conduct experiments, zoom in and out on objects, and compare real-world observations with model data, offering unprecedented insights into cosmic phenomena

SpaceX to Use Plutonium as Fuel for NASA's Mission to Titan!
SpaceX makes history with Plutonium-powered space mission! For the first time, SpaceX will launch Plutonium-238 aboard its Falcon Heavy rocket, powering NASA's Dragonfly mission to explore Titan, Saturn's mysterious moon.
Titan's thick, methane-rich atmosphere blocks sunlight, making traditional solar power unfeasible. Instead, Plutonium-238 will fuel a radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG)

UK prepares to launch satellite “janitor” into space
Astroscale UK, a subsidiary of Japan's Astroscale, is preparing to develop a vehicle to remove OneWeb satellites from low-Earth orbit. It will belong to the ELSA-M (End-of-Life Services by Astroscale-Multiple) program.
The weight of the “cleaner” is 500 kg. The device is planned to be equipped with a capture system compatible with magnetic docking stations of OneWeb satellites, of which there are
