The office is responsible for detecting, tracking, and, if necessary, deflecting asteroids and comets that could come dangerously close to Earth. This artistic animation shows asteroid 2024 YR4 ...

The image was shared last week, but it was taken on November 29, 2024. The satellite has yet to be identified, but it may be a SpaceX Starlink satellite in low Earth orbit, according to Jonathan ...

This discovery, though modest, revives a scientific debate nearly two centuries old. The idea of generating electricity from Earth's rotation isn't new. Yet a team led by Christopher Chyba (Princeton ...

The world is hungry for renewable sources of energy, which has led some scientists to ask the question: what about the rotation of the Earth? A new study reports that researchers have successfully ...

NASA reports that the construction and operation of China's Three Gorges Dam have slightly slowed Earth's rotation by 0.06 microseconds. This effect is due to the redistribution of water mass ...

"This means that a shift in mass is taking place, and this is affecting the Earth's rotation," explains Benedikt Soja, Professor of Space Geodesy at the Department of Civil, Environmental and ...
