NASA outfitted its aging communications network with a hybrid antenna that allowed it to receive both radio frequency and laser signals for the first time, helping the space agency keep up with its increasing number of missions traveling through deep space.Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra: 3 Things We Love and HateDeep Space Station 13, an experimental 112-foot-long (34-meters) radio-frequency-optical-hybrid antenna, tracked and decoded a signal from a gold-capped laser transceiver attached to NASA’s asteroid probe Psyche, the…

Asteroid 99942 Apophis is fast approaching our home planet for an uncomfortably close encounter in 2029. In order to prepare for the rare event, NASA is calling for ideas for low cost missions to rendezvous with Apophis, but the space agency already has a pair of asteroid probes ready to take on the task.This is the Coolest Galaxy S24 AI Feature That Few Are Talking AboutNASA is hosting a workshop on Wednesday, February 7 “on innovative approaches to conduct missions during the Earth flyby of the asteroid Apophis in…

2023 has been a ground-breaking year for NASA. From receiving asteroid sample to launching Psyche spacecraft, the US space agency achieved various milestones. As the year ends, we have compiled a list of 10 achievements of NASA.10 top achievements of NASA in 2023:1. This year NASA Astronaut Frank Rubio achieved a historic milestone as the first American to spend over a year in space, showcasing NASA's commitment to prolonged human space exploration. 2. OSIRIS-REx successfully deposited Bennu asteroid sample in the Utah…

In a successful demonstration of new laser communications capabilities, beamed an ultra-high definition video across 19 million miles of space from its Psyche spacecraft to Earth earlier this month. It’s the first time a UHD streaming video has been sent from deep space via laser. The history-making video? A 15-second clip of an orange cat named Taters chasing a laser dot.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvJtVOmFs5QThe signal from the video, sent on December 11, made it to Earth in 101 seconds from Psyche’s location at…

In a groundbreaking achievement, NASA's Asteroid Psyche mission has set a new milestone in space communication by successfully beaming an ultra-high definition video of a playful cat named Taters from an astounding distance of 31 million kilometers. Executed on December 11, this unprecedented broadcast demonstrates the potential for streaming high-bandwidth data from far off space, signifying a major technological advancement that could reshape future interplanetary missions.Capturing the charming antics of Taters, an…

NASA just combined all of my favorite things: space, lasers, and cats. In a first-of-its-kind demonstration of deep space optical communication, the space agency streamed a high-definition video from 19 million miles away from Earth. And as it turns out, NASA is just as obsessed as we are when it comes to sharing cat videos.NASA Delays Return to Earth's Evil Twin, VenusOn December 11, a gold-capped laser transceiver attached to NASA’s asteroid probe Psyche beamed a 15-second-long video of an orange tabby cat named Taters…

The first video streamed from deep space has arrived, with NASA showcasing an HD video of a cat named Taters chasing a laser. The video was streamed from a DSOC transceiver aboard the Psyche spacecraft, which is almost 19 million miles away from Earth.It’s a monumental accomplishment to pull off such a long-distance streaming project, and it shows just how powerful NASA’s Deep Space Optical Communications (DSOC) experiment has already proven to be. The system utilizes lasers to send communication signals across…

A few local companies are working on developing small language models (SLM), which are trained on smaller datasets and have limited capabilities than large language models, because they meet their domain-specific requirements at a lower cost.These companies include ecommerce firm Flipkart, which has developed an SLM to help it understand the interests of shoppers. Another model was developed jointly by Hyderabad-based non-profit Swecha (formerly Free Software Foundation Andhra Pradesh) and call centre software provider…

It departed our planet just over two months ago, but NASA’s Psyche spacecraft is already 16 million miles from Earth, well on its way to its main destination: the asteroid Psyche. Eager to prove its readiness, the spacecraft recently beamed back the first images captured by both of its cameras to create a tantalizing mosaic of dotted stars.'Even AI Rappers are Harassed by Police' | AI UnlockedThe Psyche mission launched on October 13, headed toward a rare, metal-rich asteroid by the same name (which can get a little…

This artist’s rendition shows a close-up view of the asteroid Psyche. NASA’s Psyche spacecraft, which is still in the early part of its long voyage to the asteroid, recently captured the mission’s first images.
