The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) is scheduled to launch the Selenological and Engineering Explorer (or Moon explorer) "SELENE" by an H-IIA Launch Vehicle in the summer of 2007. The major objective of the SELENE mission is to acquire scientific data to answer key questions on the Mo...

The first spacecraft designed to capture 3-D “stereo” views of the sun and solar wind were shipped, on the 9th November, from the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, Maryland., to NASA Goddard Space Flight Centre (GSFC) in Greenbelt, Maryland., for their next rou...

The Pioneer 10 and 11 spacecraft exhibited an `error` in their trajectories that `drag` them 8.74e-8 cm/sec/sec back towards the sun, after they had ventured passed a distance of 20 AU. This anomalous acceleration has come to be referred to as the Pioneer Effect. If this represen...
