Uranus’s Swaying Moons will Help Spacecraft Seek Out Hidden Oceans – Banner
When NASA’s Voyager 2 flew by Uranus in 1986, it captured grainy photographs of large ice-covered moons. Now nearly 40 years later, NASA plans to send another spacecraft to Uranus, this time equipped to see if those icy moons are hiding liquid water oceans. The mission is still in an early planning stage. But researchers… Continue Reading Uranus’s Swaying Moons will Help Spacecraft Seek Out Hidden Oceans – Banner
‘Giant Lab Experiment’ Leads to New Model for Predicting Landslides – Banner
Landslides are a perennial threat in California, where the geology and steep topography mean the land is more prone to slipping than in other places. Now, researchers at the University of Texas Institute for Geophysics and UC Santa Cruz studying two large Northern California landslides think they’ve found the key to predicting landslide motion hidden… Continue Reading ‘Giant Lab Experiment’ Leads to New Model for Predicting Landslides – Banner
NASA Europa Mission Set to Launch with UT Austin Instrument to Explore Jupiter’s Ocean World: Banner
One of the great mysteries of the solar system is whether the ingredients for life exist below the surface of Jupiter’s icy ocean moon Europa. On Monday, Oct. 14, NASA is scheduled to launch Europa Clipper on a mission to find out. The habitability-hunting spacecraft is equipped with sensors designed to peer beneath Europa’s surface.… Continue Reading NASA Europa Mission Set to Launch with UT Austin Instrument to Explore Jupiter’s Ocean World: Banner
