NASA Tests Compact CubeSat With Dual-Mode Propulsion System Before Launch

NASA engineers at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, have completed a series of environmental and physical tests on a new small satellite featuring a dual-mode propulsion system. The CubeSat is designed to address longstanding challenges in spacecraft propulsion, which has traditionally depended on volatile fuels and separate bulky systems for different maneuvers. The new design aims to consolidate propulsion capabilities into a safer, more compact solution. These tests mark a key milestone ahead of the satellite's planned launch.

Hubble Telescope Reveals Hidden Chaos Inside Spiral Galaxy NGC 4698

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has captured a striking image of spiral galaxy NGC 4698, released on September 18, 2026. Despite its calm outward appearance, the galaxy conceals chaotic activity within its structure. Like the Milky Way, NGC 4698 is a spiral galaxy featuring arms that curve through a flat disk of stars, gas, and dust. The image highlights how galaxies that appear serene on the surface can harbor complex and turbulent inner dynamics.
