Sino-French Satellite Launched into Orbit

  • A satellite developed by China and France, the most powerful yet for studying the farthest explosion of stars, was launched into orbit.
  • The satellite to study phenomena including gamma-ray bursts was lifted into orbit by a Chinese carrier rocket launched from the Xichang Satellite Launch Centre in the south-western province of Sichuan.
  • The launch of the Space Variable Objects Monitor will play an important role in astronomical discoveries.
  • It is the first astronomy satellite developed by China and France, although they developed the China-France Oceanography Satellite, launched in 2018.

IIIT-Delhi Wins Prize for Antimicrobial Resistance Project

  • A project by the Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology, Delhi (IIIT-Delhi), won the joint second prize in Trinity Challenge's second competition, on tackling the escalating threat of antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
  • The Trinity Challenge is a charity supporting the creation of data-driven solutions to help protect against global health threats.
  • The project, 'AMRSense: Empowering Communities with a Proactive One Health Ecosystem,' was led by Tavpritesh Sethi of IIIT-Delhi in collaboration with CHRI-PATH, 1mg.com, and the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR).
  • The IIIT-Delhi project shared the second prize with another project, also from India, titled 'OASIS: OneHealth Antimicrobial Stewardship for Informal Health Systems.'

Dhruva Space's Thybolt Satellites Complete 15,000 Orbits

  • Dhruva Space's maiden satellite mission comprising Thybolt-1 and Thybolt-2 satellites deorbited after a combined 15,000 orbits. The mission was launched in November 2022 on the Hyderabad-based space start up's 10th anniversary, onboard ISRO PSLV-C54.
  • The payload used on the Thybolt satellites is a novel Store-and-Forward payload receiving messages from sensor nodes or remote ground stations. It also stores the aforementioned messages on-board flash memory for downlinking them at a network connected ground station. The mission engaged many ham radio operators across India as well.

Chinese Satellite Discovers New Solar Atmospheric Rotation Pattern

  • Chinese scientists using the Chinese H-alpha Solar Explorer (CHASE) telescope have found a new pattern of how the sun's atmosphere rotates. According to the prestigious magazine Nature Astronomy, this new discovery is the first accurate three-dimensional picture of how the sun's atmosphere rotates.
  • China's H-alpha Solar Explorer (CHASE) is a satellite project that was made to look at the sun. Its main goal is to help us learn more about how the sun works by focusing on its magnetic activity and how its atmosphere behaves.
  • Because CHASE has so many advanced features, the study team was able to make an accurate map of how the solar atmosphere rotates. Before this, experts didn't know much about the patterns of rotation. The newest discoveries point to a more complicated way for the sun to rotate than was thought before. This could have big effects on how we understand solar physics and how we predict space weather.

Chang'e-7 Mission: Egypt, Bahrain Join China to Build Hyperspectral Camera

  • Egypt and Bahrain have joined China as international partners to develop and deliver scientific instruments for the Chang'e-7 mission. The Egyptian Space Agency (EgSA), Bahrain's National Space Science Agency, and the Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics, and Physics signed a cooperation agreement to jointly develop a hyperspectral camera as part of the goal of developing and delivering scientific instruments for the Chang'e-7 mission.
  • The Chinese lunar mission aimed at searching for water ice at the moon's South Pole in 2026.
  • In a statement, the CNSA said the project marks the first collaboration between Egypt and Bahrain on lunar exploration, with Egyptian space officials expressing a desire to deepen their partnership with China in future space missions.
  • According to the China National Space Administration (CNSA), the hyperspectral camera, developed by Egypt and Bahrain, will image and analyse lunar surface materials from orbit, including the Moon's polar regions. In addition, the camera, which is one of the six international payloads chosen by the CNSA for the Chang'e-7 lunar mission, can provide high-quality hyperspectral data for diverse fields, such as environmental monitoring, natural resource surveys, and climate change studies.
