NASA CODEX Telescope on ISS Reveals Hidden Secrets of the Sun’s Corona

NASA has introduced CODEX, a cutting-edge mini solar telescope attached to the International Space Station, which is offering groundbreaking observations of the Sun's corona. Unlike past instruments, CODEX can measure both temperature and speed of solar wind particles. This innovation aims to improve our understanding of solar weather, especially as Earth continues to experience geomagnetic storms.

FireSat Protoflight Satellite to Scan Earth Every 20 Minutes for Early Wildfire Detection

Muon Space’s FireSat project will form a 50-satellite constellation that scans the planet every 20 minutes to detect wildfires using multi-band infrared imaging. The constellation aims to support first responders and policymakers with high-resolution thermal data, bridging a critical gap in satellite-based wildfire detection. Its first satellite launched in March and has begun delivering data.
