Using data from both Spitzer and ground-based telescopes, scientists have been able to measure the speed of winds on a brown dwarf for the first time ever.
The European-Japanese Mercury mission, BepiColombo, completed its first flyby last night, sweeping near Earth. The gravity assist fine-tuned the craft's trajectory. BepiColombo's images during the flyby show Earth shining in darkness.
BepiColombo - a joint mission of Europe and Japan - successfully passed Earth last night and is now headed toward the innermost part of the solar system. Here are some questions about our sun's innermost planet, Mercury, the spacecraft is expected to answer.
BepiColombo is a spacecraft on a roundabout journey to Mercury. It'll sweep near Earth tonight, using Earth as a gravity slingshot to send it hurtling toward the inner solar system. For most of us, BepiColombo will pass unseen. But people with telescopes might spot it! Charts and more here.
