The India-US space partnership has reached an important milestone as the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission completes its first year in orbit. Launched on July 30, 2025, aboard ISRO’s GSLV-F16, NISAR has now entered an important phase of scientific observation, generating data that can help researchers understand changes taking place across Earth’s surface.

SpaceX has reached another major milestone in its rapidly expanding launch programme, completing its 100th Falcon-family mission of 2026 with the deployment of 27 Starlink satellites into low Earth orbit. The Falcon 9 lifted off from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California on August 22, carrying the latest batch of Starlink satellites. The mission added

A material that has long been treated mainly as an industrial waste product could become a valuable source of chemicals. Researchers have developed a new process that transforms one of the toughest forms of lignin into chemical building blocks used in products ranging from medicines to dyes and fertilisers. The work, carried out by researchers

Thunderstorms may be more than spectacular displays of lightning and sound. Scientists have discovered that powerful thunderclaps can send vibrations into the ground—and those natural signals can be used to investigate what lies beneath Earth’s surface. In a recent study, researchers used intense sound waves generated by thunder to create maps of shallow underground geology
