Blue Origin explosion ‘huge setback for everyone in space community’, ESA chief says
The European Space Agency’s (ESA) chief told Euronews that the explosion of a Blue Origin New Glenn rocket, which plays a crucial role in NASA’s Artemis missions to return to the Moon, will cause significant delays. ESA’s Director General, Josef Aschbacher, was “saddened” and “concerned” by the images showing the explosion of a Blue Origin New Glenn rocket during an engine test at a Florida launch pad last week, saying the damage was “quite big.” Amazon’s Jeff Bezos, who founded the space...
ESA selects two new scout-class missions
ESA selects two new scout-class missions Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Andrew Zinin Lead Editor When it comes to understanding Earth and our changing environment, space is the place. Not only does it give us an overall holistic view of the planet below, but satellite-based imagery can transcend national boundaries and give us an understanding of key changes that often go unseen at ground level. Now, the European Space Agency (ESA) has chosen two new missions to address key questions in Earth...
DWP update over support programme for Universal Credit, ESA claimants
DWP update over support programme for Universal Credit, ESA claimants People on DWP benefits and others can access the support DWP benefit claimants and other have been urged to check if they can apply for a support scheme. The nationwide programme is open to people on Universal Credit, Jobseeker's Allowance, Employment and Support Allowance, as well as others. As concerns have been raised about the growing numbers of those who are classed as Neets - not in education, employment, or training...
The festival of the future is now: Cercle 2026 brings DJs together with ESA astronauts
This is no longer just an electronic music festival; it is an experience in which culture meets science. This year's Cercle Festival in Paris is the first event created with the European Space Agency. The 2026 Cercle Festival boasted that this year's edition was the biggest in the event's history.
Endangered Species Act listing is linked with greater research effort for U.S. butterflies
Conservation strategies for at-risk species can be aided significantly by research on topics such as ecology, life history, and threats, yet research effort is lacking for many species facing elevated extinction risk. Here we investigated whether listing under the U.S. Endangered Species Act (ESA) was associated with research effort for U.S. butterflies, and whether that effort was higher before or after ESA listing. We found that ESA-listed species had significantly more peer-reviewed...
Towards Event-Robust Acoustic Scene Classification
arXiv:2606.06921v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper introduces the Event-Shifted Acoustic Scene (ESAS) dataset, a novel benchmark for evaluating the robustness of Acoustic Scene Classification (ASC) systems against unknown sound events. Existing ASC datasets typically contain recordings of clean and consistent audio, while real-world environments often include diverse and unexpected sound events. To bridge this gap, ESAS simulates real-world acoustic variability by injecting...
Extracellular salicylic acid activates immune signaling through cell-surface receptors
Salicylic acid (SA) is a central immune hormone that accumulates in both intracellular and extracellular compartments during pathogen infection. While intracellular SA signaling is well established, whether extracellular SA (eSA) directly activates immune responses remains unknown. Here we show that eSA functions as an extracellular signal potentially perceived by the plasma membrane-localized lectin receptor kinases LecRK-I.8 and LecRK-VI.2 in Arabidopsis.
Glittering star cluster image reveals missing patch of stars: 'We were not looking for the gap, but we found it'
Glittering star cluster image reveals missing patch of stars: 'We were not looking for the gap, but we found it' The new view captures an irregularity in how stars are distributed within NGC 6397. A gorgeous new portrait of an ancient star cluster reveals an unexpected imperfection: a visible gap in the brightness of its stars. The stunning image, taken by the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Euclid space telescope, captures NGC 6397 — one of the closest globular clusters to Earth.
Brightness 'gap' in ancient star cluster reveals missing red dwarfs
Brightness 'gap' in ancient star cluster reveals missing red dwarfs Gaby Clark Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor Scientists from the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) in Baltimore, Maryland, sought to study one stellar subject and ended up finding something even more exciting. The team's results published today in Astronomy & Astrophysics. Using data from the European Space Agency's (ESA's) Euclid space telescope and NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, the team planned to...
British Paralympian could be first astronaut with physical disability to live in orbit
John McFall prepares for mission to Haven-1 space station after UK Space Agency signs deal with US startup VastA British Paralympian and surgeon could become the first person with a physical disability to live in orbit after the government signed a deal with a US company that is building a small commercial space station. John McFall, a member of the European Space Agency (Esa) astronaut reserve, was cleared for activities in orbit last year and could take part in a mission to the Haven-1...
