A rocket will drop from the plane, then ascend to deliver a spacecraft called LINK to low-Earth orbit. LINK’s mission is to rescue one of the most scientifically productive astronomical facilities

NASA has selected for development a space science mission that will study how space weather interacts with Earth’s atmosphere.

A one-of-a-kind NASA space telescope is about to fall out of the sky. For more than two decades, the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory telescope has gazed at the fading afterglows of

The study, ‘Assessing scientific productivity of NASA’s space missions by cost’ was presented at the International Planetary Probe Workshop by the Planetary Society.

Penn State’s strength in space science comes from the depth of our long-standing scientific leadership and the breadth of disciplines we unite to tackle complex questions,” said Tracy Langkilde, Verne M.
