This illustration shows charged particles from Jupiter hitting the face of Europa, separating icy water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen molecules. The scientists believe that some of these newly formed oxygen gases can move into the moon's subsurface ocean, as the circled figure shows. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/SWRI/PU

Will the moon Europa return? The Juno spacecraft discovered oxygen on Jupiter's moon

NASA's Juno spacecraft directly measured charged molecules of oxygen and hydrogen from the atmosphere of Europa, one of Jupiter's largest moons. According to a new study by scientists at SwRI and Princeton, these observations provided important constraints on the potential oxidation of its subsurface ocean
This image, taken by NASA's Perseverance rover on Aug. 6, 2021, shows the hole drilled into Martian rock in preparation for the rover's first attempt to collect a sample. It was captured by one of the rover's cameras in what the rover's science team called "cobblestone" in the area. The crater floor is broken and rough" in Jezero Crater. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech

Alexander Wahlberg, doctor of physical chemistry, returned to Israel after years of studying and working in the United States and worked at Kirya for nuclear research. He also insisted on continuing to serve in the reserves, as a patrol officer, and his fall in the Yom Kippur War ended a promising scientific career

Using the high-altitude research plane WB-57, in one of the projects they will photograph the eclipse from a height of 15 km from the ground. The team hopes that taking the pictures above most of the atmosphere of the country will make it possible to see new details of structures in the middle and lower corona

Optical detection of impurities inside water pipes

  • No comments
Researchers have succeeded in developing a flexible sensing sheet that is inside a pipe in order to continuously monitor the quality of the liquid in it. By measuring the voltage induced within a layer of carbon nanotubes, it is possible to determine the concentrations of various substances. This research could lead to significant improvements in the field of food quality and environmental cleaning
