Lucy Spacecraft Will Slingshot Around Earth
NASA’s Lucy mission is heading to the Jupiter Trojans – two swarms of primitive asteroids trapped in Jupiter’s orbit that may hold clues to the formation of the planets. Lucy launched on October 16, 2021. After a year in orbit around the Sun, it is returning home on its launch anniversary for the first of three Earth gravity assists. On October 16, 2022, Lucy will fly by the Earth like a partner in a swing dance, boosting its speed and elongating its orbit around the Sun. At 7:04 am, Eastern Time, Lucy will make its closest approach at just 219 miles above the planet: lower than the International Space Station. This exceptionally close shave will increase its velocity by four-and-a-half miles per second, setting Lucy on track to gain even more speed when it returns to Earth for its second gravity assist in December 2024.

133 Days on the Sun
This video chronicles solar activity from Aug. 12 to Dec. 22, 2022, as captured by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). From its orbit in space around Earth, SDO has steadily imaged the Sun in 4K x 4K resolution for nearly 13 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 133-day 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 images taken 108 seconds apart, the movie condenses 133 days, or about four months, of solar observations into 59 minutes. The video shows bright active regions passing across the face of the Sun as it rotates. The Sun rotates approximately once every 27 days. The loops extending above the bright regions are magnetic fields that have trapped hot, glowing plasma. These bright regions are also the source of solar flares, which appear as bright flashes as magnetic fields snap together in a process called magnetic reconnection. While SDO has kept an unblinking eye pointed toward the Sun, there have been a few moments it missed. Some of the dark frames in the video are caused by Earth or the Moon eclipsing SDO as they pass between the spacecraft and the Sun. Other blackouts are caused by instrumentation being down or data errors. SDO transmits 1.4 terabytes of data to the ground every day. 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 music is a continuous mix from Lars Leonhard’s “Geometric Shapes” album, courtesy of the artist.

Video Description: On the left side of the frame is the full circle of the Sun. It appears in a golden yellow color, but splotchy and with thin yellow wisps extending from the surface. Some areas are very bright and others almost black. The whole Sun rotates steadily, with one full rotation taking 12 minutes in this time lapse. There are usually only a few bright regions visible at a time and they shift and flash like small fires. From these regions there are wispy loops reaching up above the surface that rapidly change shape and size. On the right side of the frame are two white-outlined squares with enlargements of interesting regions of the Sun.

NASA's SpaceX Crew-4 Mission Returns Home
The astronauts of Crew-4 have undocked from the International Space Station and are on their way home to Earth. Watch live with NASA as the Dragon spacecraft Freedom reenters the atmosphere and splashes down off the coast of Florida. Splashdown is targeted for 4:55 p.m. EDT (2055 UTC), Friday, Oct. 14. NASA astronauts Kjell Lindgren, Jessica Watkins, Bob Hines, and ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti spent five and a half months living and working aboard the orbiting laboratory. During their stay, they contributed to a number of experiments to expand our understanding of space while benefitting life on Earth: https://go.nasa.gov/3yCDeW0 Credit: NASA

How to Bring Mars Sample Tubes Safely to Earth (Mars News Report)
While the organization works on the following procedures to transport them safely back to Earth, NASA's Perseverance Mars rover is filling sample tubes with rocky material on the Red Planet. The Perseverance rover's sample collection would be sent to Earth as part of the Mars Sample Return effort for in-depth analysis. An worldwide interplanetary relay team, including the European Space Agency (ESA), is involved in the campaign. These samples may provide insight into a crucial query: was there ever life on Mars? In order to assure the secure return of the sample tubes, the work being done at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory is described by Aaron Yazzie, a member of the Mars Sample Return effort. Visit mars.nasa.gov/msr for additional details on the Mars Sample Return mission. NASA/JPL-Caltech credit

SWOT-Earth Science Satellite Will Help Communities Plan for a Better Future
The Earth Science Satellite initiative presents a powerful tool for informed decision-making, aimed at shaping a more promising future for communities worldwide. Through a comprehensive SWOT analysis – examining Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats – this satellite venture enables a holistic understanding of our planet's dynamics. By harnessing cutting-edge technology, it identifies Earth's strengths in terms of resources and ecosystems, as well as weaknesses requiring attention, such as environmental vulnerabilities. The satellite opens doors to new opportunities, facilitating enhanced disaster preparedness, resource allocation, and sustainable development. Furthermore, it serves as a sentinel against potential threats like climate change impacts and natural disasters, enabling communities to proactively plan and adapt. Overall, the Earth Science Satellite's SWOT analysis empowers us to collaboratively forge a better, more resilient future for all.
