Obviously any civilization on this planet will have a hard time getting to orbit with any possible kind of chemical propulsion rocket

This stunning view shows Mercury’s rugged surface, featuring craters bathed in eternal shadow. These areas might harbor water ice—a surprising possibility on a planet so close to the Sun. 🌞❄️

Magnifique! Celui du JPL
était au bâtiment “flight missions”. Le CNES en a fait aussi une version à l’échelle 1 en s’appuyant sur des étudiants. A l’ISAE SUPAERO on a fait faire une jolie version mais toute petite …

📢 New research sheds light on the chaotic rotation of Saturn's moon Hyperion! Long thought to tumble chaotically, Hyperion's spin may actually be quasi-regular, driven by nutation-orbit resonances. 🌌🛰️ #SpaceScience arxiv.org/pdf/2410.1...

🚀🇮🇳 Exciting news! India’s ISRO plans to launch the Chandrayaan-4 mission targeting the moon’s south pole for a sample return. 🌕✨

🌊 The mission aims to collect around 3 kg of lunar samples, focusing on areas believed to contain water ice.

🚀🔊 The quest to capture Martian sounds began in the 1980s, but it wasn’t until NASA’s Perseverance rover landed in 2021 that we could finally hear the Red Planet. #MarsExploration #SpaceScience

🛰️ New research led by PhD student Colas Robin analyzes boulders on rubble-pile asteroids like #Dimorphos, #Itokawa, #Ryugu, & #Bennu. Using boulder shapes, scientists estimate critical mechanical properties crucial for asteroid impact predictions & planetary defense!

I believe there might be other possible approches , including those from @ISAE_officiel at Institut Clement Ader @ICA_France

👀 Bonus: Juice’s science instruments will collect data during the flyby, including crucial tests for the RIME radar. Stay tuned for discoveries!

@ISAE_officiel is part of the JUICE adventure through its scientific team DEOS/SSPA
