#TachyonBeam #SpaceMission #astronauts #cosmonauts #ISS #SoyuzMS29
A few hours ago, the Soyuz MS-29 spacecraft was launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan, and, after a little more than three hours, reached the International Space Station with three new crew members on board. It docked with the Station's Prichal module. The ultra-fast track was used, which halves the journey duration and is used whenever the Station's position makes it possible.

#TachyonBeam #SpaceMission #China #LongMarch10b
A few hours ago, the Long March 10B rocket performed its maiden flight, which started with its launch from the Wenchang launch site. The rocket's first stage also performed a controlled landing on a sea platform, as part of the development of a reusable launch system. This is a significant achievement because it's a rocket that will be used for China's crewed Moon missions.

An article published in the journal "Astronomy & Astrophysics" reports the discovery of 31 new primordial quasars, including the two oldest known so far. A team of researchers used observations conducted with ESA's Euclid space telescope as part of the Euclid Wide Survey to find quasars we see as they were when the universe was no more than 800 million years old.

#TachyonBeam #SpaceMission #NASA #LINK
A few hours ago, the LINK spacecraft was launched using not a rocket that blasted off from the ground, but a small Pegasus XL rocket launched from an L-1011 Stargazer aircraft that took off from Kwajalein Atoll in the Pacific Ocean. The goal is to raise the orbit of NASA's Swift Space Observatory to prevent it from falling into Earth's atmosphere and disintegrating.

#TachyonBeam #SpaceMission #SpaceX #StarfallDemo
A little while ago, SpaceX's Starfall Demo mission began with the launch of a capsule atop a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral. This mission aims to demonstrate the feasibility of returning cargo weighing up to 1,000 kilograms produced in orbit to Earth, or even transporting payloads very quickly to other continents.

#TachyonBeam #astronomy #SMBH #SagittariusA
An article published in "The Astrophysical Journal Letters" reports evidence of a cosmic wind emanating from Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way. Mark D. Gorski and Lena Murchikova of Northwestern University used observations with the ALMA radio telescope and NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory to create a high-quality map of the cold carbon monoxide gas surrounding Sagittarius A*.

#TachyonBeam #astronomy #JWST #SMBH
Two articles, one published in the journal "Nature" and one in the "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society", report different aspects of a study of the supermassive black hole cataloged as Abell 2744-QSO1, or simply QSO1, indicating that it's older than its host galaxy. A team of researchers used observations with the James Webb Space Telescope to study QSO1 and measured its mass at about 50 million times the Sun's.

#TachyonBeam #SpaceMission #China #Shenzhou22
A few hours ago, the three Chinese taikonauts of the Shenzhou 22 mission returned to Earth after spending 210 days on the Tiangong space station, where they arrived on October 31, 2025, in the mission that started as Shenzhou 21. The three #taikonauts, Zhang Lu, Wu Fei, and Zhang Hongzhang, had departed the station less than six hours earlier to land at a site called Dongfeng in China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

A confirmation has arrived that three Chinese taikonauts from the Shenzhou 23 mission reached the Chinese space station Tiangong with an automated docking maneuver. Two of them will remain there for about six months, the standard duration for a mission, while the third taikonaut will conduct a one-year mission.

#TachyonBeam #SpaceMission #SpaceX #SuperHeavy #Starship
It was the afternoon in the USA when SpaceX conducted a new flight test of its Super Heavy rocket and Starship prototypes, launched from its base in Boca Chica, Texas. This is the 12th test involving the entire system of Elon Musk's company, which is supposed to revolutionize space travel with an unprecedented transport capacity and being totally reusable.

#TachyonBeam #astronomy #protostars #ENDTRANZ
An article published in "The Astrophysical Journal" reports the results of a study that has identified an important part of the planetary formation process. A team of researchers has discovered a transition zone where gas becomes a part of a planet-forming disk using the ALMA radio telescope. This zone was called ENDTRANZ (Envelope Disk Transition Zone) and was located around the protostar L1527 IRS.

A few hours ago, Northrop Grumman's Cygnus XL spacecraft blasted off atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral on its NG-24 or CRS NG-24 mission. After about 15 minutes, it successfully separated from the rocket's last stage and set on its course. This is the 4th resupply mission to the ISS launched using the Falcon 9 rocket. It's also the 2nd to see the use of the new version of the Cygnus.

It was afternoon in the USA when NASA's Orion Integrity spacecraft concluded its Artemis II mission by splashing down off the coast of San Diego. It launched on April 2 atop NASA's Space Launch System (SLS). Some support ships were in the area to recover Integrity and rescue astronauts Christina Koch, Victor Glover, Reid Wiseman, and Jeremy Hansen.

NASA's Orion Integrity spacecraft has completed a record-breaking journey around the Moon as part of the Artemis II mission. It didn't enter lunar orbit, but "merely" circled it to boldly go where no one has gone before, approximately 406,771 kilometers from Earth. After completing that feat, astronauts Christina Koch, Victor Glover, Reid Wiseman, and Jeremy Hansen set course for their return to Earth

An article submitted for publication in "Astronomy & Astrophysics" reports the results of an astronomical study that used a hybrid technique to examine the Vela Supercluster. A team of researchers combined redshifts with the distances and peculiar velocities of galaxies to obtain a complete portrait of it, a result that was previously impossible due to its location, hidden by the Milky Way's so-called zone of avoidance.
