NASA LASER TRACKING
In 1964, NASA first tracked a satellite with lasers; the method later helped measure sea-level rise and ice lossIn 1964, NASA researchers made history by tracking a satellite for the first time using a laser beam. Leveraging spare radar components and...- Scientists turned Antarctic radio waves into music, and the strange sounds from Earth’s magnetic field are now becoming nine albums that could make space weather research feel unexpectedly close to homeScientists are transforming space weather radio waves into music. These sounds, captured by a giant antenna in Antarctica, are now part of ...
