Rendezvous in Space: Tech Diplomacy and the Commercial Space Era—A Study of Rendezvous and Docking Technologies and Space Exploration Co‐Operation Since the Cold War

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT On‐orbit rendezvous and docking constitute one of the most technically challenging activities in the history of space activities. As space endeavours mature to crewed missions, space rendezous and docking technologies (RDT) emerge as an area of technological innovation critical to advances in future crewed space exploration.

Crowded No More: The Accuracy of the Hubble Constant Tested with High-resolution Observations of Cepheids by JWST

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
High-resolution James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observations can test confusion-limited Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations for a photometric bias that could affect extragalactic Cepheids and the determination of the Hubble constant.

Sampling the volcanic plumes at Io: Impact speeds and shock conditions

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The desire to sample material from the interior of Io, by flying through its volcanic plumes, requires consideration of the flyby speed and the types of sample collection techniques that can be utilized. Low speed collection (1–2.5 km s−1) would require an orbit around Io itself, which is unlikely due to the accumulated radiation dose that ...

The Complete Sample of Available SNe Ia Luminosity Calibrations from the TRGB Observed with either HST or JWST

The Astrophysical Journal
Distance ladders, which calibrate the luminosity of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), currently provide the strongest constraints on the local value of H _0 . Recent studies from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) show good

The Hubble Space Telescope UV Legacy Survey of Galactic Globular Clusters. XIII. ACS/WFC Parallel-Field Catalogues [PDF]

, 2018
As part of the Hubble Space Telescope UV Legacy Survey of Galactic Globular Clusters, 110 parallel fields were observed with the Wide Field Channel of the Advanced Camera for Surveys, in the outskirts of 48 globular clusters, plus the open cluster NGC ...

Trans-Neptunian Objects with Hubble Space Telescope ACS/WFC [PDF]

, 2010
We introduce a novel search technique that can identify trans-neptunian objects in three to five exposures of a pointing within a single Hubble Space Telescope orbit. The process is fast enough to allow the discovery of candidates soon after the data are

The High Plasma Density Observed Along the PJ57 Juno Flyby of Io Implies the Presence of a Dense Atomic Corona

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract On December 2023, the Juno spacecraft made a flyby of Io above the northern hemisphere at a closest approach (CA) altitude of ∼1,500 km (PJ57). The Juno/Waves and Radio‐occultation measurements showed a surprising large electron density ∼28,000 cm−3 near closest approach.

The cosmological ultra-low frequency radio background: a solution to the Hubble tension and the 21-cm excess trough

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
Recent observations of the Cosmic Microwave Background and the Hubble Space Telescope obtain two different values of the Hubble constant with a discrepancy of at least $$4.4 \sigma $$ 4.4 σ , which is now known as the Hubble tension.

Structure of Jupiter's High‐Latitude Storms: Folded Filamentary Regions Revealed by Juno

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Sprawling, turbulent cloud formations dominate the meteorology of Jupiter's mid‐to‐high latitudes, known as Folded Filamentary Regions (FFRs). A multi‐wavelength characterization by Juno reveals the spatial distribution, vertical structure, and energetics of the FFRs.
