Let Off-Roaders Roam in Their Own Park

By U-T San Diego Editorial Board 12:01 a.m. June 17, 2013 Updated 4:54 p.m. June 14, 2013 Two environmental groups are suing the state, seeking to force California’s parks department to scrap its “open-riding policy” giving off-road vehicles free run of the 85,000-acre Ocotillo Wells State Vehicular Recreation Area. We hope the effort fails.
Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility and the Desert Protective Council Foundation say overuse is destroying the park, which attracts more than 1 million visitors a year, many from San Diego County. The groups say off-roaders are damaging the environment and archaeologically sensitive areas.
We’re all for protecting the desert, but let’s be real: This area was set aside by the state in the 1980s expressly for dune buggies, ATVs, three-wheelers and dirt bikes.

Jet Propulsion Laboratory - Reaching for the Stars Since 1936
OCTOBER 29, 1991First Asteroid FlybyGalileo

While its ultimate destination is Jupiter and its mysterious moons, the Galileo mission also becomes notable for discoveries during its journey to the gas giant. It is the first spacecraft to visit an asteroid, called Gaspra. Galileo also provides the only close observations of a comet colliding with a planet when it witnesses fragments of comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 impact Jupiter. And its flight past Venus in 1990 yields fascinating infrared images of the planet's clouds. Two years later, Galileo encounters a second asteroid, Ida, and discovers a miniature moonlet orbiting the rocky object, later given the name Dactyl.

OCTOBER 6, 1990First Spacecraft in a Polar Orbit Around the SunUlysses

Ulysses is the first mission to survey the space environment above and below the poles of our Sun. A collaboration between NASA and the European Space Agency, Having used Jupiter’s gravity to reach its unique high inclination orbit, Ulysses studies the previously unexplored regions of the Sun's poles. Ulysses eventually completes three full orbits around the Sun and reveals for the first time the 3D character of galactic cosmic radiation, monitors solar wind variation from the poles between solar maximum and minimum, and discovers interstellar dust in the solar system.

AUGUST 25, 1989First Neptune FlybyVoyager 2

Twelve years after leaving Earth, Voyager 2 makes its closest approach to any planet since starting its journey, flying about 3,000 miles (4,950 kilometers) above the north pole of the planet Neptune. Voyager discovers that Neptune – the eighth and outermost planet from the Sun – has the strongest winds of any planet encountered, even though it receives the least solar energy. The spacecraft's flyby of Neptune sets it on a course below the elliptic plane that will eventually take it beyond the edge of the solar system.

JANUARY 24, 1986First Uranus MissionVoyager 2

After flying by the planets Jupiter and Saturn, Voyager 2 makes history as it executes the first-ever encounter of Uranus, the seventh planet from the Sun. A gas giant, Uranus orbits the Sun 20 times the distance of Earth’s orbit.
Jet Propulsion Laboratory - Reaching for the Stars Since 1936
Eventually, GRAIL generates the highest-resolution gravity field map of any celestial body and reveals an abundance of features never before seen in detail (including tectonic structures, volcanic landforms and basin rings).

DECEMBER 20, 2011First Detection of Earth-Sized ExoplanetKepler

The first Earth-size planets orbiting a sun-like star outside our solar system are discovered by Kepler, a spacecraft developed by JPL and later managed by NASA's Ames Research Center designed to study exoplanets. The planets announced in this discovery, called Kepler-20e and Kepler-20f, are too close to their star to be in the so-called habitable zone where liquid water could exist on a planet's surface, but they are the smallest exoplanets ever confirmed around a star like our Sun. Scientists view the discovery as an important milestone in the ultimate search for planets like Earth.

JULY 27, 2011First Detection of Earth Trojan AsteroidWISE

Astronomers studying observations taken by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, or WISE, mission discover the first known "Trojan" asteroid orbiting the Sun along with Earth. Trojans are asteroids that share an orbit with a planet near stable points in front of or behind the planet. Because they constantly lead or follow in the same orbit as the planet, they never can collide with it. In our solar system, Trojans also share orbits with Neptune, Mars and Jupiter. Two of Saturn's moons share orbits with Trojans. Scientists had predicted Earth should have Trojans, but they have been difficult to find because they are relatively small and appear near the Sun from Earth's point of view.

JULY 15, 2011First Protoplanet OrbiterDawn

Getting in and out of orbit around a planet takes a lot of energy. But the job is easier when you're talking about a smaller object, such as a protoplanet. Taking advantage of ion propulsion, the Dawn spacecraft slips into orbit around the giant asteroid Vesta as the first of two objects it will orbit in the main asteroid belt. After spending more than a year at Vesta, Dawn will continue on to orbit the dwarf planet Ceres.

Webb Poster

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope is a true technological marvel. The largest and most complex space telescope ever built, Webb will be able to gather light that has been traveling for 13.5 billion years, almost since the beginning of the universe. In effect, Webb is a time machine, allowing us to peer at the first galaxies to form after the Big Bang. Because it gathers infrared light, it will see right through the giant clouds of dust that block the view of most other telescopes. Webb will be 100 times more powerful than the Hubble Space Telescope.
The Big Questions - NASA Science
Based on what we know about exoplanets, and planets in our solar system similar in mass to Earth, it is most likely a rocky planet. Proxima Centauri b orbits in the "habitable zone" of its star, which means it could have liquid water on its surface – if it has an atmosphere which could support it. Calculations suggest that the one side of the exoplanet Proxima b faces its star all the time, which would make for a very different atmosphere and weather than we have on Earth. Its parent star, Proxima Centauri, is a dim red dwarf star that gives off about 600 times less light than our Sun. Proxima Centauri is the closest star to the Earth after our Sun, but it is still about 9,000 times farther than planet Neptune.How do we find exoplanets?The successes of discovering exoplanets in recent decades seem to be telling us that the galaxy is teeming with trillions of exoplanets, but finding them isn't easy. Planets are typically billions of times fainter than the stars they orbit, and they are incredibly distant. The challenges of observing extrasolar planets stem from four basic facts: Planets don't produce any light of their own, except when they’re recently formed (i.e. young). They are an enormous distance from us. They are lost in the blinding glare of their parent stars. Their sizes and masses are typically much, much smaller than that of the stars they orbit.It’s pretty rare for astronomers to see an exoplanet through their telescopes the way you might see Mars through a telescope from Earth. That’s called direct imaging, and only a handful of exoplanets have been found this way (and these tend to be young gas giant planets orbiting very far from their stars).Most exoplanets are found through indirect methods: measuring the dimming of a star that happens to have a planet pass in front of it, or monitoring the spectrum of a star for the tell-tale signs of a planet pulling on its star and causing its light to subtly Doppler shift. NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope finds thousands of planets by observing “transits,” the slight dimming of light from a star when its tiny planet passes between it and our telescopes.
Juno - NASA Science
Among other discoveries Juno made possible: JunoCam provided the first clear, close-up pictures of Jupiter’s north pole – a strange, bluish region full of giant storms and strange weather. A central cyclone at the north pole is surrounded by eight more, as if they’re bowing in tribute. These cyclones stretch more than 2,500 miles across (4,000 kilometers). And though their spiral arms smack together as they spin, the storms don’t merge. During a close flyby of the south pole, Juno spotted a new, giant cyclone in the region. A pattern of six cyclones, with one in the center, had seemed locked in place at the south pole, but a new maelstrom had somehow muscled in.Scientists knew Jupiter had an intense magnetic field. Juno showed it’s far more intense than anyone expected – in some places more than 30 times as powerful as the one surrounding Earth.  The now-departed Galileo spacecraft dropped a probe into Jupiter’s atmosphere in 1995 and found the place where it entered to be strangely dry, with one-tenth the water that scientists expected. Juno solved the mystery, showing that water is much more abundant nearer Jupiter’s equator. High-voltage electrical charges contribute to the formation of auroras at Jupiter’s poles, just as they do on Earth. But Jupiter is the solar system’s Texas: everything’s bigger. The most powerful energies there come to 400,000 electron volts, while our most powerful auroras on Earth hit only a few thousand volts. Maybe the most iconic storm in the solar system, Jupiter’s Great Red Spot has been swirling for centuries. But it appears to be slowly shrinking, from twice Earth’s size in 1979 to 1.3 times now. Juno plumbed the depths of this signature cyclone, showing that its roots run 200 miles (320 kilometers) deep — 50 to 100 times as deep as Earth’s oceans. Since April 2022, Juno has been observing the volcano-covered moon Io. and has sent back images that appear to show fresh lava fields, in areas last seen in visible-light images during Galileo and New Horizon flybys (in 1999 and 2007).
