NASA Astronaut Tracy C. Dyson Training Resource Reel - NASA Johnson Space Center

NASA Astronaut/Roscosmos Flight Engineer Tracy C. Dyson will launch to the ISS from Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan aboard the Soyuz MS-25 spacecraft with Soyuz Commander Roscosmos Cosmonaut Oleg Novitskiy and a spaceflight participant.During her approximately six months on the ISS,she will perform scientific research and ISS maintenance,to possibly include spacewalks.She will be aboard the ISS at roughly the same time as the SpaceX Crew-8 Mission as a member of Expedition 70/71.It will be her third spaceflight and second long duration mission on the ISS.

Odysseus lander reaches moon, but tips over

Unfortunately,the mission isn't a complete success as IM-1 flopped over on its side.Some of the scientific instruments will work,but others won't.It hasn't been revealed yet which ones will work.So NASA and Intuitive Machines will face some hard questions.

Milky Way's black hole may be spinning 'football-shaped' spacetime warp - astrophysics

Studies of the supermassive black hole in the center of the Milky Way,Sgr A*,were made using the NASA Chandra X-ray Observatory and the National Science Foundation (NSF) Very Large Array,an array of radio telescopes in New Mexico. The singularity of a black hole was predicted by Einstein's General Theory of Relativity,yet was never confirmed by observation in his lifetime.A singularity has zero volume yet infinite density,hence it bends spacetime to an infinite extent.As you approach a singularity,time slows down from an observer's point of view,but not from the one being observed's point of view (relativity).It slows down so much it virtually stops,with one minute being approximately 1,700,000 years long.This is experienced by astronauts in low Earth orbit to a minor extent because the Earth's large mass causes ripples in spacetime.Even light,which has no mass,must follow the curvature of space in the presence of a black hole.Hence astronomers detected X-ray flashes on the opposite side of a black hole,confirming Einstein's theory yet again.
