Webb’s Mid-Infrared Instrument reached its final operating temperature of below 7 kelvins

The new technique relies on satellites that measure wind speed and ocean roughness

Astronomers present a concept for the next NASA flagship mission

Assembled from tiny identical pieces, the wing could enable lighter, more energy-efficient aircraft designs

Identical twin astronauts are subjects of NASA’s Twins Study. One spent a year in space while the other stayed on Earth as a control subject

The biggest planet in the solar system has no tilt as it moves, so its poles have never been visible from Earth

Evidence from two lunar missions shows the Moon's water is not confined to a particular region and is not easily accessible

New work will help astronomers allocate scarce observing time to the most promising candidates for habitability

Christopher Edwards, assistant professor of physics and astronomy, along with his students and postdocs, will use this facility to collaborate with scientists from throughout the country, as well as engineers and rover operators at JPL

The findings  were obtained with a model similar to the type used to predict future climate change on Earth
