NASA Researchers Probe Tangled Magnetospheres of Merging Neutron Stars

New simulations performed on a NASA supercomputer are providing scientists with the most comprehensive look yet into the maelstrom of interacting magnetic structures around city-sized neutron stars in the moments before they crash. The team identified potential signals emitted during the stars’ final moments that may be detectable by future observatories.   “Just before neutron […]

Compact ATC Working Positions Without Compromising Continuity

Air traffic service providers are under increasing pressure to deliver continuity with less space and tighter budgets. A compact controller working position from Rohde & Schwarz is emerging as a practical option across multiple environments. In air traffic control, the controller working position is fundamental to safety and continuity. However, traditional full-size positions are not

How NASA Is Homing in From Space on Ocean Debris

Space-based technology could help track plastic and other flotsam by its ‘fingerprints.’ In late 2025, scientists reported that, for the first time, they were able to detect concentrations of plastic pollution on land using NASA’s Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation (EMIT) sensor aboard the International Space Station. The technology has inspired marine researchers to […]
