London: Space engineers plan to put satellites into orbit that can collect large amounts of energy from the Sun and convert it into a infrared laser beam transmitted back to Earth as an alternative to the planet
Using the recently updated Hubble Space Telescope (HST), two teams of UK astronomers have identified galaxies which are likely to be the most distant yet seen.
India's space agency has in its pipeline eight foreign satellites for launch and is scouting to acquire such spacecraft from abroad to expand capacity in the field of communication transponder back home.
Two U.S. spacecraft were crashed into a lunar crater on Friday but scientists said it was too early to say whether the mission to search for supplies of water on the Moon had been a success.
NASA, which is hoping to find sufficient quantities of water to use as fuel for space exploration, said it could take two months to make a conclusive assessment of what was found.

One of the explanations is the late decision to carry a probing instrument in the spacecraft. In the original plan the spacecraft was to just orbit the moon. The decision to make the instrument with an imprint of the national flag land on the
