Witness the historic moment as Chandrayaan 3, the latest mission by ISRO, achieves a flawless and secure soft landing on the lunar surface. Join us to celebrate this remarkable triumph of science and technology as India continues its journey of lunar exploration.

The Chandrayaan-3 is aiming for the lunar south pole, a region with water ice, or frozen water, that could be a source of oxygen, fuel and water for future moon missions or a more permanent moon colony.

As of June 2020, NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory — SDO — has now been watching the Sun non-stop for over a full decade. From its orbit in space around the Earth, SDO has gathered 425 million high-resolution images of the Sun, amassing 20 million gigabytes of data over the past 10 years. This information has enabled countless new discoveries about the workings of our closest star and how it influences the solar system. With a triad of instruments, SDO captures an image of the Sun every 0.75 seconds. The Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) instrument alone captures images every 12 seconds at 10 different wavelengths of light. This 10-year time lapse showcases photos taken at a wavelength of 17.1 nanometers, which is an extreme ultraviolet wavelength that shows the Sun’s outermost atmospheric layer — the corona. Compiling one photo every hour, the movie condenses a decade of the Sun into 61 minutes. The video shows the rise and fall in activity that occurs as part of the Sun’s 11-year solar cycle and notable events, like transiting planets and eruptions. The custom music, titled “Solar Observer,” was composed by musician Lars Leonhard (https://www.lars-leonhard.de). While SDO has kept an unblinking eye pointed towards the Sun, there have been a few moments it missed. The dark frames in the video are caused by Earth or the Moon eclipsing SDO as they pass between the spacecraft and the Sun. A longer blackout in 2016 was caused by a temporary issue with the AIA instrument that was successfully resolved after a week. The images where the Sun is off-center were observed when SDO was calibrating its instruments. SDO and other NASA missions will continue to watch our Sun in the years to come, providing further insights about our place in space and information to keep our astronauts and assets safe.

The Earth formed about 4.6 billion years ago from a rotating disk of gas and dust surrounding the young Sun. Particles in this disk began to stick together through collisions, forming planetesimals and eventually protoplanets. Earth, one of these protoplanets, began to accumulate more material, including heavy elements and water vapor. In the past few billion years, Earth has been pummeled by asteroids, crashed into other planets and frozen over several times. Not to mention being ruled by all kinds of crazy lifeforms. 00:00 Earth's Evolution in 10 Minutes 00:37 4.5 BILLION YEARS AGO 02:25 3.8 BILLION YEARS AGO 03:16 3.3 BILLION YEARS AGO 03:47 2.4 BILLION YEARS AGO 04:29 1.1 BILLION YEARS AGO 06:22 250 MILLION YEARS AGO 07:33 66 MILLION YEARS AGO 08:03 6 MILLION YEARS AGO

Precipitation (falling rain and snow) is our fresh water reservoir in the sky and is fundamental to life on Earth. This video shows the most detailed and worldwide view of rain and snowfall ever created and uses satellite measurements from the Global Precipitation Measurement Core Observatory, or GPM, a joint mission between NASA and the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). Tracking precipitation from space with satellites provides information of where, when, and how much it rains and snows anywhere in the world and gives insight into the behavior of our weather, climate, and ecological systems.
