Abstract: The integration of large-scale heavy-duty electric vehicle (HDEV) charging infrastructure presents significant challenges for existing power distribution grids. This paper evaluates the grid ...

But as Apophis crosses our planet's pathway periodically, there's still a risk of a direct impact in the distant future. OSIRIS-APEX uses the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft that snatched a small sample of the ...

A newly discovered space rock zoomed safely by Earth on Wednesday (Oct. 15) at only about a quarter of the average distance to the moon. The asteroid, called 2025 TP5, sailed by our planet at 4:09 p.m ...

“We don’t yet know the full scope of AI’s impact, but—unlike the ill-fated dinosaurs of the Cretaceous Period—we still have time to adapt.” “Extinction was simply proof of failure to adapt.” ~ Michael ...

There are literally thousands of asteroids circling around our planet in the vast solar system of ours, going about their business at various distances from our planet. Only one of them sends shivers ...

As explained in Prof. Robert Jarrow’s book cited below, forward rates contain a risk premium above and beyond the market’s expectations for the 3-month forward rate. We document the size of that risk ...

"With these probability maps, we can push asteroids away while preventing them from returning on an impact trajectory, protecting the Earth in the long run." When it comes to saving Earth from a ...

The asteroid Psyche may have once had vents that spewed molten metal — but only if it is chemically similar to rare, metal-rich meteorites, a new study suggests. The study, which was published online ...

Scientists have found that we may have been wrong about how the Moon’s largest crater, the South Pole-Aitken (SPA) basin, formed roughly 4.3 billion years ago. As detailed in a new paper published in ...

NASA has secured the necessary funding for the OSIRIS-APEX mission, which would see the repurposed OSIRIS-REx spacecraft used to visit another asteroid, Apophis, in 2029. The mission—one of 19 science ...

An asteroid recently made the second closest pass to Earth ever observed on October 1st. And astronomers only found it after it had already completed its closest approach. That offers another lesson ...
