Mercury has a layer of diamond up to 10 miles thick, scientists suggest | Science & Tech News
admin
It may be the smallest planet in the solar system but Mercury could be hiding a big secret. A layer of diamond beneath the crust of Mercury could be up to 10 miles (18km) thick, new research suggests. Scientists from China and Belgium used data collected by NASA’s MESSENGER spacecraft between 2004 and 2015 to…

Dimorphos asteroid being trailed by 6,000 miles of debris after impact by NASA’s DART spacecraft | Science & Tech News
admin
More than 6,000 miles of debris is trailing behind an asteroid that was deliberately hit by a NASA spacecraft. The image was captured by a telescope in Chile two days after last month’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART). It shows a tail made up of dust and other material from the impact by the spacecraft…

NASA smashes spacecraft into asteroid seven million miles from Earth in ‘planetary defence’ trial | Science & Tech News
admin
NASA has successfully smashed a spacecraft into an asteroid seven million miles from Earth. The last image from the “vending machine-sized” collider showed the surface of the asteroid Dimorphos seconds before impact. The Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) is the first-ever trial of a “planetary defence system”. If the orbit of an asteroid can be…
