Solid, Liquid, Gas and all the things in-between. What’s in between? Cornstarch mud. Sometimes it’s a liquid, but sometimes a solid. Phil fills a giant trough with it to see if it’s solid enough to run across. Plus, giant rock candy, giant bubbles and a giant sledgehammer made out of a frozen pumpkin.

Dincolo de atmosferă începe vidul cosmic, rece până la câțiva Kelvin, în timp ce în adâncurile planetei temperaturile ating mii de grade. Locul nostru de existență rămâne doar o fâșie fragilă, câteva zeci de kilometri de aer și lumină.
Privirea se ridică apoi spre instrumentele care ne-au deschis universul. Telescopul Hubble, reparat în 2009 de astronauții navetei Atlantis, a devenit ochiul nostru veșnic spre stele. Saturn V, colosul creat de Wernher von Braun, a purtat omenirea până pe Lună, unde astronauții au făcut primii pași și au adunat probe cu bucuria copilăriei.
În spațiu strălucesc stele reci și fierbinți: roșiaticele giganti ca Betelgeuse abia ating 3000 °C, în timp ce albastrele ca Rigel depășesc 20.000 °C. În nebuloasele colorate – Clepsidra, Stâlpii Creației, Carina sau Laguna – gazul și praful cosmic nasc noi sori. Supernove precum Nebuloasa Crab lasă în urmă pulsați neutronici și filamente strălucitoare.
Telescopul James Webb, urmașul lui Hubble, ne arată în infraroșu detalii ascunse: norii lui Neptun, aurorele lui Jupiter, inelele lui Uranus, roiuri de galaxii și primele structuri formate la câteva sute de milioane de ani după Big Bang. Lentilele gravitaționale măresc galaxii îndepărtate, dezvăluind coliziuni, stele tinere și găuri negre supermasive.
Aceasta este povestea Pământului și a cerului: o fâșie subțire de viață, înconjurată de infinit, explorată cu ochii noștri mecanici, dar înțeleasă prin uimirea omului care privește în sus.”
Din adâncurile haosului se ridică lumi uitate, ca roiuri de lumină ce străbat nemărginirea. Ca o supernovă tainică, ele se aprind dintr-un dor infinit, purtând în ele frumuseți ascunse și enigme nerostite, gata să fie descoperite. Vei porni în călătoria lor?
Watch a SpaceX Dragon spacecraft dock to the International Space Station after a successful liftoff on Aug. 24. The spacecraft is carrying supplies – including food and essential equipment for the crew – as well as a variety of science experiments.
The Dragon spacecraft is scheduled to remain at the space station until December, when it will depart and return to Earth with research and cargo, splashing down off the coast of California.
The 33rd SpaceX commercial resupply mission to the International Space Station is set to lift off at 2:45 a.m. EDT (0645 UTC) on Sunday, Aug. 24, from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, atop a Falcon 9 rocket.
Dragon is scheduled to dock autonomously to the station at around 7:30 a.m. EDT (1130 UTC) on Monday, Aug. 25. Read the full timeline and learn more about the mission: https://go.nasa.gov/4lHGTaX
🚩 I am very pleased to share with you “Turenne: Campaign of 1674”, which outlines the brilliance of maneuver that even Napoleon admired. In the summer of 1674, France’s Marshal Henri de la Tour d’Auvergne, Viscount of Turenne, found himself facing one of the most perilous tests of his career. Europe was convulsed by the War of the Dutch, and the Holy Roman Empire had cast its weight behind France’s enemies. The Rhine frontier, long a region of uneasy peace, was now a corridor of fire and steel.
Turenne, seasoned by decades of war, moved with the precision of a master strategist. The Rhine crossings became scenes of constant maneuvering before the coming decisive clash. As December set in, snow blanketed the valleys, masking troop movements and blurring the lines between friend and foe. Turenne’s scouts reported enemy columns shifting under cover of darkness, their intentions as cold and sharp as the winter air.
Something was coming—something that would not only decide the fate of this campaign, but perhaps reshape the very balance of power in Europe. And as Turenne looked across the frozen fields, he knew the hour was almost upon him.

Europe’s first MetOp Second Generation, MetOp-SG-A1, weather satellite – which hosts the Copernicus Sentinel-5 mission – has launched aboard an Ariane 6 rocket from Europe’s Spaceport in French Guiana. The rocket lifted off on 13 August at 02:37 CEST (12 August 21:37 Kourou time).
MetOp-SG-A1 is the first in a series of three successive pairs of satellites. The mission as a whole not only ensures the continued delivery of global observations from polar orbit for weather forecasting and climate analysis for more than 20 years, but also offers enhanced accuracy and resolution compared to the original MetOp mission – along with new measurement capabilities to expand its scientific reach.
This new weather satellite also carries the Copernicus Sentinel-5 mission to deliver daily global data on air pollutants and atmospheric trace gases as well as aerosols and ultraviolet radiation.
We are Europe’s gateway to space. Our mission is to shape the development of Europe’s space capability and ensure that investment in space continues to deliver benefits to the citizens of Europe and the world. Check out https://www.esa.int/ to get up to speed on everything space related.

The four members of NASA’s SpaceX Crew-10 mission — NASA astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Takuya Onishi, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Kirill Peskov — prepare to head to Earth as the hatches are closed on their spacecraft. Undocking is scheduled for Friday, Aug. 8, at 6:05 p.m. ET (2205 UTC).
During their nearly five months on the space station, Crew-10 contributed to the more than 200 scientific demonstrations and experiments taking place in orbit. These included physiological and psychological studies, material flammability tests for future spacecraft designs, and testing a backup lunar navigation solution.

We are saddened by the passing of Apollo astronaut Jim Lovell at the age of 97.
Jim Lovell was a veteran of the Gemini VII and Gemini XII missions before becoming command module pilot and navigator for Apollo 8, the first crewed spacecraft to be lifted into near-Earth orbit by the Saturn V launch vehicle. He became the first man to orbit the Moon on two separate missions when he served as the commander of Apollo 13.
Unfortunately, the mission to explore the Fra Mauro region of the Moon did not go as planned. What many viewed as a “routine” mission soon had millions around the globe glued to television sets watching and hoping for a positive outcome to one of the most intense episodes in the history of space exploration.

🚩 In the spring of 1455, England stood on a knife’s edge. After years of political infighting, mistrust, and royal instability, the kingdom braced itself for open conflict between two of its most powerful noble factions. What had begun as court intrigue and whispered conspiracy was now poised to erupt into war.
At the heart of the storm stood the fragile figure of King Henry VI, a monarch whose bouts of mental illness and indecisive rule had left a dangerous power vacuum. Into that vacuum stepped Richard, Duke of York, a prince of royal blood with a claim to the throne and growing support among the realm’s discontented nobles.
At St Albans, a decisive blow could shift the balance of power in the realm and set the precedent for noble rebellion or royal repression. Across England, nobles watched, cities held their breath, and common folk whispered that civil war had finally come.
