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.

Three Craters on Mars Named for Physicist Devendra Lal, Towns in UP, Bihar

  • Three craters on the surface of Mars were named for renowned cosmic ray physicist late Devendra Lal and the towns of Mursan and Hilsa in northern India.
  • While the discovery was made by a team of scientists which included researchers working at the Physical Research Laboratory (PRL), Ahmedabad in 2021, the naming was approved by an international body in June 2024.
  • The three craters are situated in the Tharsis volcanic region of the Red Planet.
  • On the recommendation of the PRL, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) Working Group for Planetary System Nomenclature approved naming the craters as 'Lal' crater, 'Mursan' crater and 'Hilsa' crater, PRL director Anil Bhardwaj said.
  • Mursan and Hilsa are the names of towns located in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, respectively.
