Rogier Windhorst and David Livingston: Professor Windhorst warns that the Hubble Space Telescope's orbit will begin to decay uncontrollably by September 2033 due to solar maximum atmospheric expansion. To prevent a hazardous, uncontrolled re-entry, Windhorst advocates for a robotic servicing mission to boost Hubble's orbit. As the only remaining telescope with precise blue-ultraviolet capabilities, Hubble's data remains critical and heavily in demand. Windhorst urges NASA to fund a $100 million rescue mission and eventually construct the Habitable Worlds Observatory to search for Earth-like exoplanets starting in 2040. (3)

This previously unreleased episode of How To DJ is released in loving memory of William Orbit. Recorded after William had returned from seeing Madonna perform in Paris, this wide-ranging conversation captures the Grammy-winning producer, musician and artist in his own words — and, at William's request, we've chosen to release it in its original full-length, unedited form. William talks to Chris Hawkins about his lifelong obsession with sound, discovering DJ culture and pirate radio, building studios, making records with Torch Song, Bass-O-Matic and Strange Cargo, and the extraordinary journey that took him from struggling for money in Crouch End to receiving a phone call from Madonna and helping create Ray of Light. He reflects on working with artists including Madonna, Beth Orton and Britney Spears, the highs and lows that followed enormous success, his approach to creativity, and why he believed you should never underestimate the power of the random. It is funny, candid, occasionally chaotic and unmistakably William Orbit. Released with love to William's family and friends, and in memory of a true musical genius. Learn more about your ad choices.

SpaceX wants Starship Flight 14 to carry viable payloads into orbit and then bring the upper stage back to the launch tower for its first catch attempt. The company is tentatively aiming for the end of August, although it still needs regulatory approval and a clean review of the previous flight. SpaceX has caught Super Heavy three times, but it has never tried to catch a 52-meter ship after orbital entry. Can Flight 14 really go from useful payload deployment to a tower catch on the same mission?Flight 14 asks Starship to do far more than repeat another hourlong trip to the Indian Ocean. We are going through the likely hardware, the orbital flight path, the payload deployment, the deorbit burn, the return to Texas, the catch sequence, the booster problem, and every decision that could send the ship away from the tower.

A Renowned American Astronomer and Planetary Scientist at the University of HawaiʻI Institute for Astronomy Dr. David J.

Angela DiFulvio explains a theoretical method for detecting nuclear weapons in low Earth orbit to prevent catastrophes like the 1962 Starfish Prime experiment, which destroyed a third of existing satellites. She describes an "inspector" satellite designed to induce a unique radioactive signature from fissile material using high-energy protons. DiFulvio details technical challenges, such as "pulse shape discrimination," to distinguish weapon-related neutrons from background cosmic radiation in the harsh space environment. She suggests that an international agency like the IAEAmight oversee these inspectors to ensure space remains weapon-free. DiFulvio emphasizes that while tests can occur in classified environments, more research is needed on the survivability of sensing electronics. She warns that a modern orbital nuclear detonation would be catastrophic for global infrastructure, specifically mentioning the vulnerability of massive constellations like Starlink. (8)

William Orbit, the pioneering DJ and music producer, through his work with synthesizers and new studio technology he combined electronic dance music with pop, to create chart toppers. He grew up surrounded by classical music. His epiphany came when he discovered Tonto's Expanding Head Band, an electronic duo and so began his passion for electronic music. The DJ and A&R executive Pete Tong tells us his story.Wang Quanying was believed to be the last surviving female participant in China's Long March, one of the most significant events in modern Chinese history. The historian and film maker Shuyun Sun learned about the Long March at school and many years later walked the 6,000 mile route herself, where she met women like Wang who told her they'd tie a belt around their stomachs so they wouldn't feel hunger.Lady Hornby was the broadcast journalist who championed women's rights. After hitting her own glass ceiling at work she set about making sure other women had an easier path to the top. As a founding member of the 300 Group, she promoted women's participation in politics and public life. And, as a reporter working for Woman's Hour, she took on the then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, as her daughter Victoria Hornby explains.“A good trainer can hear a horse speak to him. A great trainer can hear him whisper.” The words of Monty Roberts, the Californian horse psychologist who used gentle persuasion rather than harsh punishment to get the best out of his horses. His autobiography “The Man Who Listens to Horses” sold six million copies and he became a close adviser to Queen Elizabeth II. As his friend and fellow horse behaviourist Kelly Marks told Matthew, when he first began promoting his techniques, he was met with widespread scepticism.Presenter: Matthew Bannister Producer: Ribika Moktan Assistant Producer: Catherine Powell Researcher: Jesse Edwards Editor: Andrea KennedyARCHIVE: The First Time With..., BBC 6 Music, 26/02/2023; Front Row, Radio 4, 11/08/2010; Spotlight, BBC Archive, 29/09/1966; Assignment, China's Long March, 04/09/2000; Women's Hour, Radio 4, 11/12/1986; Women's Hour, Radio 4, 23/09/1976; Monty Roberts, Q.E.D.: Talking Horses, BBC One, 01/08/1995; Monty Roberts, Lowri, BBC Two, 09/09/1999.

China launched the world's first geosynchronous synthetic aperture radar satellite in 2023, giving it continuous all-weather surveillance over roughly one-third of the planet (including the Asia-Pacific and Indian Ocean), later pairing it with a high-resolution optical spy satellite. Let's discuss the critical mineral chokehold that allowed China to achieve this milestone, as well as the alternative supply chains that the United States is now building to counter the ruling Chinese Communist Party.

 During Flight 13, the Starship upper stage achieved a successful soft splashdown, validating its thermal protection system, while the Super Heavy booster experienced a hard impact due to engine relight failures. Flight 14 marks a transition to orbital-class capability, featuring the first attempt to catch the returning ship using the "Mechazilla" launch tower arms. To support this mission, the Federal Aviation Administration is evaluating expanded contingency landing zones across the Pacific Ocean to ensure public safety during reentry. SpaceX is also implementing dual-flow logistics at its Texas facility to increase launch frequency and streamline the production of its Block 3 architecture. Ultimately, these documents detail the regulatory and engineering milestones required to transform Starship into a routine commercial asset.

So very sad to read about the passing of William Orbit, it's hit me really hard! A true pioneering music maestro of our time. His career spanned four decades and he sold over 200 million recordings worldwide. Apart from his groundbreaking “genius” work with Madonna on her Ray of Light, Music, and MDNA albums, for me his “Adagio for Strings” is an incredible masterpiece.But to pay tribute to his legacy of work, hear THIS, his unreleased “Ray of Light” collab with the Queen of Pop, the EPIC 12-minute Atmos Mix, which includes “Bank of Wildflowers” by Georgia Barnes. In his own words “a multidimensional technical feat as well as the usual musical lattice.” And I created this very special image! it is all the feels, goosebumps and tears !!! William Orbit, thank you for the music, and fly high...

Rasmus Rothe, Vorstandsvorsitzender des KI-Bundesverbands und Mitgründer von Merantix, sieht bei den neuen Modellen reale Cyberrisiken – und zugleich viel Storytelling. Die Vorfälle bei OpenAI und Anthropic passierten in bewusst schwächer gesicherten Testumgebungen – „in einer echten Umgebung", so Rothe, „wären diese Systeme viel mehr gesichert worden." Chinesische Open-Source-Modelle liegen nach seiner Einschätzung nur wenige Monate zurück, und Rothe sieht durchaus eine Zukunft für europäische KI-Anbieter. [05:25]Startplätze im Orbit sind der Engpass der Raumfahrtwirtschaft, in der westlichen Welt ist für die nächsten Jahre fast alles ausgebucht. Hendrik Brandis, Mitgründer von Earlybird, bringt es auf den Punkt: „Wer keinen Launcher hat, spielt da oben nicht mit." Chancen für Zulieferer liegen bei orbittauglichen Solarzellen und bei Satellitenbauteilen, die bislang überwiegend in Einzelfertigung entstehen.

In this episode of Markets Radar, I dive deep into the mind-blowing financial drama of Elon Musk's inaugural post-IPO quarterly report. I break down the jaw-dropping $18.4 billion capital spending splurge that shook investors and cost Musk his trillionaire status, alongside the massive multi-billion-dollar cloud computing contracts SpaceX signed with Google and Anthropic. But the real story isn't on Earth. We reveal Musk's ultimate, high-stakes vision: bypassing Earth's severe energy bottlenecks by launching solar-powered AI data centers into orbit. From the game-changing Starship test flight to the profitable powerhouse of Starlink, I examine whether this orbital compute strategy is a stroke of trillion-dollar genius or the most expensive cash-burn in corporate history. Plus, I look at the physical backbone powering this AI race on the ground with Caterpillar's blowout earnings, and how Wall Street is quietly rewiring the crypto market with institutional custody and tokenized deposits.

Sci-Fi Subgenres: Alien Invasion + Trench Warfare Towering, tripod war machines drop from orbit, devastating the frontline of an ongoing human civil war. A grunt trapped in the mud must forge an alliance with enemy soldiers to sabotage one of the walkers. They are forced to rely on bayonets and satchel charges against advanced energy shields.

To the notion of a vast and empty outer space, imagine instead the lower orbit of planet Earth cluttered by thousands of aging tracked objects losing their functionality and far too much debris – some of it moving at speeds of kilometers per second, posing a threat to satellites and mankind's ability to communicate and make scientific, economic and climate forecasts, not to mention great powers' national security. Simone D'Amico, a Hoover Institution science fellow and founder of Stanford's Space Rendezvous Laboratory, discusses his recent report on space safety and offers ways to make the heavenly objects safer, securer, and more sustainable. Among his suggestions for easing a stressed space domain: harnessing emerging technologies, improving communications between satellite operators, and seeking greater consensus among the world's space powers in terms of traffic coordination.

A camera built to record a spacecraft's splashdown has become a widely adopted tool in automotive safety testing.

Bradley Hatton-Jones is the Founder and CEO of Orbit2Orbit, an Australian space company building the infrastructure required to validate, move and service technology beyond Earth. Bradley led the design and build of Australia's largest rocket manufacturing facility and supported the development of the Eris launch vehicle. He founded Orbit2Orbit in 2025 to address a growing gap in the space economy: launch can place hardware into orbit, but there is limited infrastructure to move, upgrade, service or retrieve it once it arrives.

As AI is driving explosive growth in data center construction on Earth, there's accelerating interest in moving some of the computing infrastructure to orbit. The past few months have seen a flurry of announcements for future orbital data centers. Is this the latest hype cycle for the space industry, or a greenfield opportunity? The answer may be somewhere in the middle.  In this week's On Orbit episode, we're bringing you a recent discussion from Via Satellite's Tech Webcast series. It features JJ Jaworski, CEO and co-founder of Edge Aerospace; Rob DeMillo, CEO of Sophia Space; and Ronald Birk, principal director of the Space Enterprise Evolution Directorate for The Aerospace Corporation. The conversation digs into potential architectures for orbital computing, the technological developments and challenges, and realistic use cases and potential early adopters for in-orbit computing.  This conversation was sponsored by Edge Aerospace.   

The polar regions are still some of the most inaccessible and least touched by humans, but they are deeply linked to the rest of Earth. We will cover the history of exploring them, the challenges of measuring this environment, and the current state of knowledge about the ice at both poles.  We will also cover the likely future for the polar regions – the incentives driving different actions, what science suggests about the consequences, and coming events to look out for.This lecture was recorded by Helen Czerski on the 21st of May 2026 at Barnard's Inn Hall, LondonHelen Czerski is a physicist and oceanographer with a passion for science, sport, books, creativity, hot chocolate and investigating the interesting things in life. She is a Professor at the Department of Mechanical Engineering at University College London and her research focus is the physics of breaking waves and bubbles at the ocean surface. These bubbles change underwater sound and light, help transfer gases from ocean to atmosphere (helping the ocean breathe) and also eject ocean material into the air. She has spent months working on research ships in the Antarctic, the Pacific, the North Atlantic and the Arctic, and is an experienced field scientist. Helen has been a regular science presenter on the BBC for 15 years, covering the physics of the natural world in BBC2 landmark documentaries (including ‘Orbit', ‘Operation iceberg' and ‘Supersenses'), and the physics of everyday life in a range of BBC4 documentaries (including ‘From ice to fire: The incredible science of temperature', ‘Sound waves: The symphony of physics', and ‘Colour: The spectrum of science', along  with many others). She currently co-hosts BBC Radio 4's flagship climate and environment programme Rare Earth. Helen's first book Storm in a Teacup won the Italian Asimov Prize and the Louis J. Battan Author prize from the American Meteorological Society. Blue Machine won the Wainwright Prize for Conservation Writing. She was awarded the Institute of Physics Gold Medal in 2018 for her work on physics communication, and an Honorary Fellowship of the British Science Association in 2020. She has been a Trustee of Royal Museums Greenwich since 2018, and was one of the 2020 Royal Institution Christmas Lecturers, giving her Lecture on the topic of the ocean.

Klingel, Zeugnis, Arme hoch, raus! Sechs Wochen, die sich anfühlen wie ein anderer Planet. Wie kriegt man dieses Gefühl noch einmal zurück?Michi klettert mit dreizehn Jahren nachts aus einem Zugfenster in Ostende. Jochen fliegt an der Costa Brava auf, weil im verspiegelten Fahrstuhl die Disco-Sticker leuchten. Diese Naivität, dieses Es-passiert-gleich-was - genau das versuchen wir bis heute mit auf jede Reise zu nehmen.Und dann ein Ort, an den niemand freiwillig reist: Ein paar Schneeflocken legen London lahm, alle Flüge sind gestrichen, und ein Shuttle-Bus setzt Jochen im Dunkeln vor einem Hotel ab, in dem hunderte Fremde dasselbe Schicksal teilen: steckengeblieben zu sein. Business-Typen, die ins Nichts starren. Fremde, die zusammen feiern. Kinder, die aus Langeweile winzige Schneemänner auf Parkplätzen bauen. Wie ein Raumschiff im Orbit, in dem alle festhängen und niemand weiß, wo genau man ist und wann es weitergeht.Dazu kommen die lieben Jenny und Basti von 22places mit Packtipps, die selbst bei Jochen noch was reißen könnten. Und eine Weekender Card, die überraschend tief geht: ein Mitbringsel, das mehr bedeutet als sein Preis.Schönes Wochenende, ihr Lieben.—

Bob Zimmerman reports that SpaceX is preparing for its 13th Starship flight, a prototype featuring major upgrades for future orbital missions and in-orbit refueling. In India, the startup Skyroot achieved a landmark success with the Vikram-1 rocket, signaling the rise of a private, capitalist space sector. However, the Indian government has counterproductively restricted ISRO employees from leaving for private firms. These contrasting approaches highlight the tension between state-run agencies and the efficiency of private enterprise in the global space race. (11)AUGUST 1955

Astronomy Daily — S05E147: "Space Mechanic" Wednesday 22 July 2026 A spacecraft with robotic arms is on its way to geostationary orbit to keep other satellites alive. A discarded rocket stage is two weeks out from hitting the Moon, and twenty-three astronomers have just asked the world to watch. Plus the first binary star system where both stars exploded, the first complete magnetic map of a galaxy cluster, and the asteroid breakup that may have bombarded three worlds while Earth froze. In This Episode ●      The Space Mechanic Launches — Northrop Grumman's Mission Robotic Vehicle lifted off from Cape Canaveral on 21 July carrying three Mission Extension Pods. With two 3-metre robotic arms built by the US Naval Research Laboratory, it is designed to inspect, relocate, repair and refuel satellites in geostationary orbit. Each pod can give a 2,000 kg satellite up to eight more years of life. ●      UPDATE — The Rocket Aimed at the Moon — A new arXiv preprint signed by 23 astronomers calls for a coordinated observing campaign when Falcon 9 upper stage 2025-010D strikes the Moon near Einstein crater on 5 August. North America has the best seat: 2:34am EDT, with the paper naming observers in the Americas as the ideal group. Refined impact time, predicted crater size, and why the ejecta plume may be visible even if the flash is not. ●      Sibling Supernovae — Sixteen years of Fermi data reveal a faint supernova remnant hiding in the glare of the Jellyfish Nebula. The two may be the first known pair of remnants traced back to a single binary star system. ●      Mapping a Cluster's Magnetic Field — Using the deepest radio observations ever made with LOFAR, astronomers have reconstructed the magnetic field of galaxy cluster Abell 2255 from nucleus to outer edge for the first time. ●      The Eulalia Bombardment — A new Planetary Science Journal paper links the breakup of a main-belt asteroid to an impact shower that battered the Moon, Earth and Mars 800 million years ago — and may connect to a global freeze. ●      Skywatch, Both Hemispheres — Why this week beats peak night for the Delta Aquariids wherever you are, how to catch them from the southern US and Mediterranean, and what's coming on 12 August: a total solar eclipse across Iceland and Spain, a North American partial, and the best Perseid peak in years on a new Moon.Sources & Further Reading ●      Space.com — SpaceX launches satellite repair drone with 10-foot robotic arms to Earth orbit ●      NASASpaceflight.com — Falcon 9 to launch MRV-1 robotic servicing spacecraft for Northrop Grumman ●      Northrop Grumman SpaceLogistics — Mission Robotic Vehicle and Mission Extension Pod fact sheets ●      Scientific American — A SpaceX rocket is about to crash into the moon; scientists will be watching ●      Phys.org — When a SpaceX rocket crashes into the moon, scientists will be watching (arXiv preprint) ●      Project Pluto (Bill Gray) — Upper stage impacting the moon on 2026 August 5 ●      Stanford University — Researchers uncover evidence for sibling supernovas (Michailidis et al., Nature Communications) ●      Reuters — Scientists spot evidence of two huge companion stars that blew up ●      Space.com — Galaxy cluster's magnetic field reconstructed for 1st time with record-breaking astronomy map (Botteon et al., INAF, A&A) ●      Southwest Research Institute — SwRI-led research connects asteroid collision to impact showers 800 million years ago ●      The Planetary Science Journal — Bottke, Vokrouhlický, Dykhuis & Zellner, "An 800 Myr-old Impact Shower on the Terrestrial Planets from the Breakup of the Eulalia Parent Body" ●      EarthSky — Delta Aquariid meteor shower: all you need to know in 2026 ●      NASA Science — Total Solar Eclipse on August 12, 2026 (path, partial visibility and safety guidance) ●      BBC Sky at Night Magazine — August 12, 2026 solar eclipse: USA and Canada guide   Connect ●      Website: astronomydaily.io ●      Socials: @AstroDailyPod ●      Part of the Bitesz.com Podcast NetworkBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/astronomy-daily-latest-space-news--5648921/support.Sponsor Details:Ensure your online privacy by using NordVPN.

There is a dramatic push of technology into space. Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites are changing the broadband communications market and there's speculation about putting data centers in orbit. Analysts Ellie Brown and Johan Vermij join host Eric Hanselman to look at the practical aspects of this push into a new frontier as a preview to their upcoming webinar. The cost of access to space has been dropping significantly, but there are many considerations that impact the viability of some of these plans. LEO satellite lifetimes are shorter than geosynchronous ones and the sustainability impacts of the launch volumes necessary to maintain multiple, massive constellations are daunting. Space is an attractive vantage point for observation with imaging to support geopolitical needs and ecological ends, like methane emissions tracking. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is piercing cloud and vegetation layers to reveal landscape details. Space-based data centers are seeing a lot of interest, but popular misconceptions about cooling capabilities may be adding more encouragement than is warranted. While space is "cold", radiating heat is more complicated in its vacuum. The International Space Station, with a massive radiation system, rejects only 70 KW of heat, less than a few racks of equipment and much less than a typical GPU cluster. And the need to service equipment on orbit hasn't been meaningfully addressed. Smaller satellites with distributed processing could pre-process data before it's sent to earth, but that will require greater levels of coordination to manage the massive scale on which this would have to operate.  More S&P Global Content: Join the webinar:  Orbit as the Next Data Frontier: Capital Flows, Risk, and Realities For S&P Global Subscribers: NVIDIA gives 'space cred' to orbital data center race with Vera Rubin Space module announcement STMicroelectronics eyes $3 billion in annual space revenue as demand for LEO satellites surges As the space sector enters the infrastructure era, M&A could become a force to be reckoned with Host/Author: Eric Hanselman  Guests: Ellie Brown and Johan Vermij Producer/Editor: Dylan Scheible Published With Assistance From: Feranmi Adeoshun and Sophie Carr

The Eye of Leviathan (Orbit, 2026) begins with a deal between Teresa—wife of an abusive Hidalgo living in 1500s Spain—and her friend the fairy Castaña, who agrees to become a changeling, taking the form of an infant boy and the place of Teresa's daughter, who will instead be raised by fairies. Teresa gets protection for a child that would otherwise be killed and Castaña, now Estevan, gets access to the human world, where he can hopefully learn enough to stop the increasing violence against his people. The Eye of Leviathan imagines a world where Spain focuses not on the Americas as its primary target for colonization, but on the Sea Beyond, the realm of the fae. In this interview Carrick describes the myriad of historical sources they used to build the novel and the impact that the inclusion of the fae had on the mythology and history of the world. We chat about map making, gender in early modern Spain, and the various islands of the Sea Beyond. We also discuss the initial European discovery of the Sea Beyond, which is covered in a prequel story available to read at Adventitious. The Eye of Leviathan is a rich and detailed novel full of adventure and the struggle towards justice in the face of violent cruelty. It was a joy to discuss with the authors.

Check out our special offer: www.incogni.com/stuartgarySpaceTime Series 29 Episode 81How a passing star redirected comets to the inner solar systemA fascinating new study reveals how a passing star, HD 7977, may have altered the trajectory of comets from the Oort Cloud, sending them cascading into the inner solar system. This event, which occurred approximately 2.47 billion years ago, could still be influencing comet activity today. Researchers used data from the European Space Agency's Gaia mission to refine the distances involved and suggest that the gravitational perturbations from HD 7977 temporarily dominated the generation of new comets.Changing our map of the Milky Way GalaxyAstronomers have redrawn the map of our Milky Way galaxy, moving its outer arms up to 10% further away than previously estimated. This revised picture is based on observations of gamma-ray bursts and the subsequent echoes of X-rays that helped to measure distances within the galaxy. New techniques have allowed for a clearer understanding of the Milky Way's structure, confirming the existence of its four spiral arms.Evidence of vast hidden magma systems inside MarsNew findings suggest that Mars once hosted extensive magmatic systems beneath its surface, despite the absence of plate tectonics. Data from NASA's InSight mission has revealed a previously unidentified boundary layer deep within the Martian crust, indicating complex geological processes that may have allowed the Red Planet to develop a habitable environment. This challenges long-held assumptions about the geological capabilities of rocky planets without tectonic activity.The Science RobertA new study indicates that the mental health of high school peers can significantly affect individual mental health outcomes. Additionally, research finds no link between paracetamol use during pregnancy and the risk of autism or ADHD. A detailed analysis of a fossilised pterosaur wing reveals insights into its diet, while scientists discover new methods to control quantum light sources, bringing us closer to practical quantum technologies.1.
