(Alt: “A Metal World, A Planet-Hunter & Ten Times The Storm Warning | Today’s Space News”)
Description
NASA’s Psyche spacecraft sends home the data — and a stunning month-long time-lapse — from its Mars flyby, on its way to a metal world. Europe’s Plato planet-hunter passes its final exam. And straight from the Royal Astronomical Society’s National Astronomy Meeting: a CubeSat that could give us hours of solar-storm warning, and a clever new way to forecast the Sun’s next active spell. Plus the first pieces of the giant ngVLA radio array, and a meteor shower that finally favours the Southern Hemisphere.
