Nearest NASA mission.

Right after NASA withdrew from the service space shuttles, they have also provided information about future missions, which can improve our knowledge about outer space and physics that rule it.

Disturbance Reduction System

 Let's see what information about this mission NASA site provides.

"The Disturbance Reduction System, or DRS, designed as part of the Space Technology 7 project, is an experimental system for measuring gravitational waves in space, which are thought to contain important data about the history of the universe. The system will be incorporated into the European Space Agency's LISA Pathfinder spacecraft, launching in 2014 to test key technology for a future ESA/NASA Laser Interferometer Space Antenna mission."

The humanity provide us with another tool to understand surrounding us universe. Gravitation is quite a mystery for our kind, people want to know everything about it, this knowledge help us with other projects.

Simulating the future of the solar system!

This is how Jupiter looks like in present days from the surface of it's satellite Io.

Hello guys and gals. I had surfed through the NASA website and guess what I have found.

Yep, you are right. Simulating our Solar System isn't a big challenge for NASA, that's not a surprise, but they are providing it and sharing with everyone who is interested in space and how did it looked 10 years ago. You can find it here! It can also provide very accurate simulation of any know space object in space until year 2025!

We can check how many kilometers will travel Voyager 1 after 47 years of its journey! It's almost half century and NASA thinks that it will be kicking as well as on the day it was lunched.

Spacecraft Voyager "seen" from the Pluto in the year 2024.
It has traveled more then 26 billion kilometers and
moving toward the nothingness at amazing speed 61 thousand kilometers per hour!

Those are only few examples of results of this simulation tool., but we can provide almost everything that we can think. Do you want to know how does The Earth look like from The Moon? No problem. Didn't you know how The Europe look like? Now everything is possible. Go check it out here: NASA Solar System Simulator.

Space Shuttle

Space Shuttle was the biggest step in human discovery of space. It was first partially reusable launch system and orbital spacecraft for human space flight missions.

It was the most complicated and also the most expensive "device" that could make the biggest breakthrough in human history. There was no such part of the science which didn't helped to build, upgrade and maintain this vehicle.

Sadly, it was retired from service in 2011 after 135 flight missions. It was the longest part of the history of space exploration by humankind.

Our blog is growing!

Our blog is growing!

I've added the section about our universe, where you will find whole bunch of useful information about our universe and technologies that allow us to describe it as it really is.

Observable Universe

Two words about me and space computing

My name is Matthew and I was always interested in our universe, it's secrets and the whole technology that helps us to understand it.

This Blog will be dedicated to Space Computing. I'll try to investigate all possible topics and make conclusion at the end. I'll start from the advanced science, where you the most talented people or the biggest brains of our nation can participate. Going further, I'll mention about the students like me, who are changing our vision of humankind in the universe.
