In the summer of 2021, the ghost of the Cold War unexpectedly reared its head on an unremarkable Chinese peninsula. A Long March rocket roared into space and released a hypersonic glide vehicle, a ...

Scientists are studying Saturn's moon Titan to assess its tidal dissipation rate, the energy lost as it orbits the ringed planet with its massive gravitational force. Understanding tidal dissipation ...

Orbital dynamics, particularly in the context of lunar missions, encompasses the study of trajectories, stability and long‐term behaviour of spacecraft in the Moon’s gravitational field. Recent ...

SP hybridization occurs when one s orbital and one p orbital from the same atom combine to form two new orbitals of equal energy. These new orbitals are linearly oriented 180 degrees apart, leading to ...
