Rising sea levels and human intervention in rivers are rapidly changing river-dynamics across the world. Read more below in today's edition of Digging Deep.
A study using 12 years of data from NASA's Fermi telescope helped scientists understand PeVatrons, or the source of a kind of extremely high-energy cosmic particles.
NASA plans to roll out the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and Orion spacecraft to the launchpad on August 18. The space agency will also hold three teleconferences to discuss the mission's scientific payloads.
The first-of-its-kind study raises new concerns about how fast climate change is weakening Antarctica's floating ice shelves and accelerating the rise of global sea levels.
There's something in the universe that seems to hold everything together, a dark matter like glue. We can't see it, and yet it's got to be out there, right?
This year, the annual Perseid meteor shower is coinciding with a full moon. But here is how you can still catch a glimpse of the meteor shower no matter where you live.
There is a name for what Myanmar has become: A “sacrifice zone,” or a place that destroys itself for the good of the world.The sacrifice is visible from the air, in toxic turquoise pools that dot the landscape.
Northrop Grumman is partnering with rocket startup Firefly Aerospace to build a new version of its workhorse Antares rocket without Russian-made engines.

Bees can control temperature in astounding ways — from keeping cool during heat waves to cooking their enemies alive.
Space Commission member A S Kiran Kumar who was present at the Sriharikota spaceport said all the three stages of ISRO's newest rocket performed well and the primary objectives of the launch vehicle were demonstrated well.
In 2019, the SSLV received a commercial booking from US-based Spaceflight Inc in anticipation of the quick development of the rocket by ISRO. However, delays on account of the pandemic and the failure of its maiden flight may now result in Spaceflight Inc having to wait longer for its commercial launch.
ISRO's SSLV D1 mission lifted off successfully from the spaceport at Sriharikota but suffered from a "data loss" almost immediately. Not much later, ISRO announced that the "two satellites are no longer usable."
After cheering and clapping for the lift-off and performance of the various stages of the rocket, there was a silence in the mission control room after the separation of the satellites on board at 738 and 788 seconds after the lift-off.
The Federal Communications Commission said it would begin revising decades-old rules on getting rid of space junk and on other issues such as satellite refueling and inspecting and repairing in-orbit spacecraft.
From the United Launch Alliance's launch of a Space Force satellite to ISRO's maiden SSLV launch, here is some of the biggest space news that happened over the last week.
ISRO SSLV launch: While the three solid fuel-based propulsion stages worked normally, the satellites were injected into a wrong orbit, due to failure of logic to identify a sensor failure.
ISRO's SSLV D1 mission placed satellites into elliptical orbit instead of a circular orbit, leaving the satellites unusable.
A study found that temperature had no effect on wing colour in either wild or laboratory moths. Populations under examination continued to maintain their wing pattern variation.
