The #Juno spacecraft is still alive in #Jupiter orbit! Here is its radio carrier as observed today with the 20-meter dish in Bochum, Germany: https://x.com/amsatdl/status/1975505962652807196 / https://bsky.app/profile/amsat-dl.org/post/3m2lur3itus25 - no telemetry was sent at that time. I'm in contact with the mission's PI at #SwRI, hoping to learn more about its fate. If Juno gets a mission extension it would look like this: https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/EGU25-5184.html

☺️ Wissenschaftler haben auf diesem Mond organische Verbindungen identifiziert, die großes Interesse wecken.☺️Interessant, auch weil eine Studie einer längeren JWST Nachfolge-Beobachtung von Christopher Glein für Ende des Jahres 2025 ausstehen sollte. Vorstufe war B. Villanueva et al. 2023 #Enceladus #Astrobiology #JWST #JamesWeb #SWRI #ChristopherGlein #Icemoon #Saturnmond

Suche nach Leben im Weltall: Saturnmond Enceladus im Fokus
Der Saturnmond Enceladus gilt trotz seiner eisigen Oberfläche als vielversprechender Kandidat für Leben im Weltall.

[Перевод] Прибор под управлением SwRI развернут на поверхности Луны

13.03.2025, пресс-релиз Юго-Западного исследовательского института (SwRI - Southwest Research Institute) 2 марта 2025 года, всего через несколько часов после приземления на поверхность Луны на борту посадочного модуля Blue Ghost 1 компании Firefly Aerospace был активирован лунный магнитотеллурический зонд (LMS) разработанный Юго-Западным исследовательским институтом. LMS развернул пять своих датчиков для изучения недр Луны путем измерения электрических и магнитных полей. Инструмент LMS является первым внеземным применением магнитотеллурического зондирования .
