Researchers at NASA have selected three new projects to support the development of innovative technologies. The chosen projects focus on origami-inspired space docking ports, cooperative cislunar operations, and improved optical communication capabilities. They also include a compact magnetic heat switch for thermal management.
Why it's good news: It shows that NASA is investing in cutting-edge research to improve space exploration and communication capabilities.
The science section covers breakthroughs in medicine, physics, biology, and technology. We surface discoveries that expand what humanity can do, from new treatments reaching clinical trials to engineering feats that seemed impossible a decade ago. Every link goes to the original publisher so you can read the full study or press release yourself.
