For 11 years, the VLA Low-band Ionosphere and Transient Experiment, known as VLITE, has quietly recorded the low-frequency radio sky every time the National Science Foundation’s Very Large Array (VLA) ...

A new theoretical study explores how activity high above Earth could subtly influence processes deep within the planet’s crust. Researchers at Kyoto University are advancing a new idea about how space ...

Abstract: Acoustic-gravity waves in the neutral atmosphere induce disturbances in the distribution of electrons in the ionosphere that can be observed in the total electron content (TEC) of global ...

NASA confirmed that the rockets would deploy four subpayloads to collect data on electron flow and plasma density.

Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) have become an indispensable technology for high-precision positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT), providing ...

A possible alternative to active debris removal (ADR) by laser is ablative propulsion by a remotely transmitted electron beam ...

Equilibrium Ionospheric System Science (GNEISS) mission in 2026, aiming to map the electric currents behind the aurora.

NASA’s GNEISS mission will launch twin rockets from Alaska in 2026 to map the electric currents driving auroras. Using multiple sub-payloads and radio signals, scientists will reconstruct electron ...

NASA is launching a rocket mission from Alaska as early as Saturday to study and help understand electrical circuitry ...

Researchers at Kyoto University have proposed a new physical model that explores how disturbances in the ionosphere may exert ...

NASA’s GNEISS mission will use rockets and ground sensors to map three-dimensional electrical currents in auroras, offering direct measurements of auroral pathways in Earth’s upper atmosphere.

Our society relies heavily on space assets which are susceptible to space weather effects. Space, here focused on the ionosphere-thermosphere (IT), is sparsely sampled, and IT models are therefore ...
