Harvest super moon roses over Washington, DC
An American Airlines flight passes beneath the harvest super moon rises en route to landing at a nearby airport, in Washington, D.C., U.S., on October 6, 2025. This full moon is referred to as a super moon because the moon is closer than normal to the earth and therefore appears considerably larger. (Photo by Allison Bailey/NurPhoto) -

Satellite opens like umbrella for detailed look at changing Eartth surface

See Ferrari text
Picture MUST credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech
A satellite packed with a giant radar antenna, folded like an umbrella has just unfurled in orbit for a first of its kind mission.
The satellite was launched to monitor Earth’s surfaces detecting movement of the planet’s crust down to centimetres.
The massive, drum-shaped structure is on a mission called NISAR, a joint effort between US space agency NASA and India space agency ISRO.
It launched on July 30 from Satish Dhawan Space Centre in India.
More than two weeks later, the satellite deployed its antenna reflector, which spans 12 meters—the largest ever used on a NASA mission.
NISAR is designed to produce a three-dimensional view of Earth in unprecedented detail.
It will enable researchers and data users to create 3D movies of changes happening on Earth’s surface.
It will track the motion of ice sheets and glaciers, the deformation of land due to earthquakes, volcanoes, and landslides, and changes in forest and wetland ecosystems.
It also will aid decision-makers in fields as diverse as disaster response, infrastructure monitoring, and agriculture.

Picture MUST credit: Dawn Aerospace
An unmanned plane designed to fly to the edge of space equipped with a payload for watching out for and identifying potential spy satellites has been successfully tested.
The payload, called Morning Sparrow was being carried by the pilot-less Aurora spaceplane.
The plane has been developed by multinational company Dawn Aerospace which is headquartered in New Zealand.
The Morning Sparrow is a suite that includes optical sensors and related hardware for near-real time object identification, classification, and tracking in orbit.
The set up is needed because the burgeoning private space rocket sector has created a new form of satellite.
Instead of a few large satellites launched in relatively high stable orbits, whole constellations of mini versions can be put into low Earth orbit at very short notice.
It makes it possible to quickly respond to emergency situations by deploying satellites for surveillance, communications and battlefield networks before their orbits decay and they plunge back to Earth.
But they could also be deployed spying without potential targets being aware.
The new system is designed to quickly help look for satellites and try to figure what they are doing.
The Morning Sparrow system made by US firm, Scout Space, is designed for such use and was tested on July 17.
It was incorporated into an Aurora spaceplane that took off from a conventional runway at Tawhaki National Aerospace Centre in New Zealand.

Space lovers can now get an out of this world replica of the solar system with authentically orbiting plants — for the home.
The Quantum Solar System levitating set has a glowing Sun which can be used as a light with adjustable brightness.
It hovers on its own levitation board while tiny replicas of the Earth, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus and Jupiter.
The positions and orbits of the planets are in real time, synchronised with data from US space agency NASA.
They can also be positioned at any date in the past, present or future.
For example, they can be observed as they were at any historical date in the past or in any astronomical event of the future.
For observing the evolution of the orbits they can be shortened so six Earth days become one second.

Space lovers can now get an out of this world replica of the solar system with authentically orbiting plants — for the home.
The Quantum Solar System levitating set has a glowing Sun which can be used as a light with adjustable brightness.
It hovers on its own levitation board while tiny replicas of the Earth, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus and Jupiter.
The positions and orbits of the planets are in real time, synchronised with data from US space agency NASA.
They can also be positioned at any date in the past, present or future.
For example, they can be observed as they were at any historical date in the past or in any astronomical event of the future.
