NASA launches robotic mission to save telescope falling back to Earth

Al Jazeera

NASA has launched a robotic mission to try to prevent one of its ageing telescopes from burning up in the atmosphere in a complicated operation expected to last several months. Northrop Grumman launched the Link spacecraft - built by United States-based Katalyst Space Technologies - from the Marshall Islands in the Pacific Ocean on Friday. Initially scheduled for Tuesday, the robot's launch was postponed due to weather, then technical issues. Blast-off happened on Friday at 0836 GMT from an atoll in the Pacific Ocean. The unprecedented $30m effort involves sending a robot to rescue the Swift space telescope that is falling towards Earth.

Mobulas, a Wonder of the Gulf of California, Are Disappearing

WIRED

These magnificent rays are at risk of disappearing due to targeted fishing, being caught as bycatch, and climate change. Scientists at the research collaboration Mobula Conservation are teaming up with artisanal and industrial fishermen to protect them. Also known as "Devil Rays," mobulas are elasmobranchs: a subclass of fish--including sharks, skates, and sawfish--that are distinguished by having skeletons primarily made from cartilage. More than a third of the species in this group are threatened with extinction. Of the nine species of mobulas, seven are endangered and two are vulnerable according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature.


Underwater robot discovers a never-before-seen creature at the junction of three tectonic plates in the Pacific Ocean - as baffled viewers dub it the 'forbidden toilet scrubber'

Daily Mail - Science & tech

At first glance at this creature, you'd be forgiven for mistaking it for a sparkly pair of fake eyelashes. But the creature is very much real and was discovered at the junction of three tectonic plates in the Pacific Ocean. Researchers from the Schmidt Ocean Institute spotted the animal while using an underwater robot to scour the seabed. The animal is a polychaete - a class of marine worms, more widely known as bristle worms. 'To describe this polychaete, one simply must use jazz hands -- it is the only way to capture this deep-sea worm's dazzle!' the experts said in an Instagram post about the polychaete.


Images reveal remains of 'ghost city' in the middle of Pacific Ocean

Daily Mail - Science & tech

Comprehensive, precision-laser surveys, conducted via aircraft over the tiny Pacific island of Temwen, have revealed just how advanced its lost city Nan Madol once was. Sometimes called'the Venice of the Pacific,' this megalithic stone city has drawn comparisons to mythic Atlantis -- and even inspired horror writer H.P. Lovecraft, who drew upon news of the site's 1928 discovery as he wrote'The Call of Cthulhu.' But now scores of researchers are in a race to uncover the full extent of Nan Madol's ruins as they undertake plans to preserve the city as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Their aerial surveys, conducted via LiDAR or'Light Detection and Ranging' laser-mapping, has uncovered'a sophisticated and extensive landscape of cultivation features hidden under Temwen Island's vegetation.' The discovery has promised to rewrite the history of many Pacific Island cultures, showing that societies once presumed to have relied on subsistence fishing and natural tropical bounty, were in fact engaged in sophisticated agricultural planning.


Scientist share world's first 'conversation' between humans and whales - and say it's the first step to understanding aliens

Daily Mail - Science & tech

Scientists claim they have had the first one-on-one conversation with a whale. The team from the SETI Institute and the University of California'spoke' with a 38-year-old humpback whale, named Twain, off the coast of Alaska. They used an underwater microphone to send out whale calls, 'whup/throp' sounds, and received 36 responses that seemed like Twain was actively engaged in a communicative exchange. AI-powered algorithms analyzed the replies, revealing Twain may have shared a greeting call with the team on a boat in the Pacific Ocean. While speaking to a different species has never been done in this manner, researchers are using the experience to hopefully one day converse with extraterrestrial life.
