Germany Is Shutting Down Three of Its Last Six Nuclear Plants Today
Posted by Chima Wisdom in category: nuclear energy
As the world is leaving 2021 behind, Germany announced that it will shut down three of its remaining nuclear power plants.
🌱 🤓 This week I helped with the latest experiment going on in the International Space Station plant habitat which cultivates several cotton genotypes. Each of these petri dishes contains undifferentiated masses of cotton cells known as a calli. Cotton is highly resistant to the process of plant regeneration, making it difficult to engineer stable, reproducing plants that have specific or enhanced traits such as drought resistance. The investigation could provide a better understanding of this behavior and could ultimately improve our ability to grow crop plants on Earth and in space.

NASA discovers Webb has enough fuel for a decade-plus of deep space observations
Posted by Atanas Atanasov in category: space travel
NASA announced that James Webb telescope course corrections used less fuel than expected, which means Webb can expect to work for more than 10 years.
And as NASA announced Wednesday morning, Webb may get to peer deep into the universe for even longer than expected: Webb used less of its limited supply of propellant during two course-correction thruster burns after launch than expected, and the space agency says it should have enough left over to enable operations “significantly” longer than the expected 10-year mission.

JWST Just Deployed a Sail That Lets it Stop Getting Pushed Around by the Sun’s Radiation
Posted by Claudio Soprano in category: space travel
The James Webb just deployed another important instrument — the aft momentum flap — that will keep the telescope steady as it makes its groundbreaking observations.
On December 25th, 2021, astronomers and space exploration enthusiasts got the greatest Christmas present of all! After years of delays, cost overruns, and additional testing, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) launched from Europe’s Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana. In what was a real nail-biter, the Ariane 5 rocket and its precious payload reached orbit without a hitch. But as is so often the case, the deployment of the JWST was just the first in a series of “hurry up and wait” episodes.
