Optical Telescope Element. Spacecraft ( Bus and Sunshield) James Webb Space Telescope mission logo. The James Webb Space Telescope ( JWST) is a space telescope designed to conduct infrared astronomy. Its high-resolution and high-sensitivity instruments allow it to view objects too old, distant, or faint for the Hubble Space Telescope. [10]
NASA continued the mission of the Juno spacecraft at Jupiter by conducting a flyby of Europa on 29 September 2022. [1] In Mars exploration, the European Space Agency (ESA) had partnered with Roscosmos to launch the Rosalind Franklin rover using the Kazachok lander as part of ExoMars 2022. [2] In March 2022, the launch was cancelled in the wake ...

In search-for-life-on-other-planets news, a study published this week in the journal Nature Astronomy revealed evidence of a magnetic field on the rocky exoplanet YZ Ceti b, which orbits a star ...
Euclid. (spacecraft) Euclid is a wide-angle space telescope with a 600-megapixel camera to record visible light, a near-infrared spectrometer, and photometer, to determine the redshift of detected galaxies. It was developed by the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Euclid Consortium and was launched on 1 July 2023 from Cape Canaveral in Florida.
A solar radiation-triggered quake likely caused the asteroid Dinkinesh to lose material. Some of it became a moon that now orbits the space rock, new research found.
This list of space telescopes ( astronomical space observatories) is grouped by major frequency ranges: gamma ray, x-ray, ultraviolet, visible, infrared, microwave, and radio. Telescopes that work in multiple frequency bands are included in all of the appropriate sections. Space telescopes that collect particles, such as cosmic ray nuclei and ...
