He wanted to know why Gobeil’s wartime tour was viewed as a black mark against his otherwise sterling career, when it should have been recognized as a stellar achievement. Jay

On the 24th of April, 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) was launched into Earth orbit. After a bit of a rocky start, HST soon became one of the most important telescopes humans have ever built. Over its 27 years in orbit it has helped shape and guide our understanding of the Universe; from measuring the furthest galaxies to imaging smashed asteroids in the belt between Jupiter and Mars, it has contributed to many of the current astronomical fields. For its birthday each year, HST releases a

Atoms-thick layer of silicon-based semiconductor may allow us to better understand the harsh environments of Venus

Apr 21, 2017
In 1967, Venera 4 was the 1st probe to transmit data from another planet’s atmosphere. 8 models, and close to 15 years, later we were able to receive the 1st colour panoramic views of that same planet’s surface. Today, Venus still very much remains a mystery with probes unable to withstand the extreme temperatures and atmospheric pressures for more than 127 minutes. However, researchers at Standford University’s Extreme Environment Microsystems Laboratory are working on developing an atoms-thick
