NASA has successfully tested an electric force field on the Moon that protects spacecraft from destructive lunar dust. The Electrodynamic Dust Shield (EDS) was carried aboard Firefly Aerospace’s Blue ...

Future Moon bases may be a bit tidier thanks to an electric shield that protects equipment from destructive lunar dust. NASA's Electrodynamic Dust Shield (EDS) technology promises to tame the ...

Firing dust from the moon into space to create a sun shield could be a "feasible" way to mitigate global warming on Earth, a team of scientists has found. In a study published in the journal PLOS ...

On a cold winter day, the warmth of the sun is welcome. Yet as humanity emits more and more greenhouse gases, the Earth'satmosphere traps more and more of the sun's energy and steadily increases the ...

A moon lander mission is launching tomorrow and will take about 45 days to get the moon and then spend 14 days or more operating on the surface. It will take improved radiation tolerant PCs and an ...

As the climate crisis continues to worsen, scientists and researchers around the world have been looking for ways to curb the effects and mitigate the damage. Now, three astrophysicists have proposed ...

A new kind of moon spacesuit fabric could "repel lunar dust on demand" for astronaut missions, says the team behind the design. The flexible, stretchable moon fabric prototype is under development at ...

NASA is sending a technology demonstrator to the moon on the upcoming private Firefly Blue Ghost Mission 1 in order to test how to repel and remove lunar dust using electricity. When you purchase ...

NASA plans to deploy a technology demonstrator known as the Electrodynamic Dust Shield (EDS) on the private Firefly Blue Ghost Mission 1 to investigate methods for repelling and eliminating lunar dust ...

In 1991, the Philippine volcano Mt. Pinatubo erupted, sending millions of tons of sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere — and kicking off the modern era of thinking about geoengineering. Solar ...

Imagine a world where global warming on Earth has meaningfully diminished. Fossil fuels are on the back burner. Affordable renewable energy sources run most of our activities. Oh, and there’s a cannon ...
