OSIRIS-REx: 1st US Asteroid Sample Lands Soon (Official NASA Trailer)
NASA’s Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, Security-Regolith Explorer (OSIRIS-REx) is the first U.S. mission to return samples from an asteroid to Earth. When it lands, the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft will release the sample capsule for a safe landing in the Utah desert. The pristine material from Bennu – rocks and dust collected from the asteroid’s surface in 2020 – will offer generations of scientists a window into the time when the Sun and planets were forming about 4.5 billion years ago.

Astronomers have found five new supermassive black holes in the centers of galaxies.
When galaxies collide and merge with each other, it can force their supermassive black holes close together.
While models predict this would happen, it has been very difficult to find these giant black hole pairs until now.
The combination of data from Chandra, WISE, and the Large Binocular Telescope led to this bumper crop of black holes.
This discovery could lead to a better understanding of how giant black holes grow.

The new results suggest that at least some of the supermassive black holes in the early Universe formed through this direct collapse method.

X-ray Echoes Map a Black Hole’s Disk (part 4) #NASA #Space #Astronomy
Some 3.9 billion years ago in the heart of a distant galaxy, the tidal pull of a monster black hole shredded a star that wandered too close. X-rays produced in this event first reached Earth on March 28, 2011, when they were detected by NASA's Swift satellite. Within days, scientists concluded that the outburst, now known as Swift J1644+57, represented both the tidal disruption of a star and the sudden flare-up of a previously inactive black hole.
Now astronomers using archival observations from Swift, the European Space Agency's XMM-Newton observatory and the Japan-led Suzaku satellite have identified the reflections of X-ray flares erupting during the event. Led by Erin Kara, a postdoctoral researcher at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, and the University of Maryland, College Park, the team has used these light echoes, or reverberations, to map the flow of gas near a newly awakened black hole for the first time.
Swift J1644+57 is one of only three tidal disruptions that have produced high-energy X-rays, and to date it remains the only event caught at the peak of this emission. While astronomers don't yet understand what causes flares near the black hole, when one occurs they can detect its echo a couple of minutes later as its light washes over structures in the developing accretion disk. The technique, called X-ray reverberation mapping, has been used before to explore stable disks around black holes, but this is time it has been applied to a newly formed disk produced by a tidal disruption.
Swift J1644+57's accretion disk was thicker, more turbulent and more chaotic than stable disks, which have had time to settle down into an orderly routine. One surprise is that high-energy X-rays arise from the innermost regions of the disk instead of a narrow jet of accelerated particles, as originally thought.
The researchers estimate the black hole has a mass about a million times that of the sun. They expect future improvements in understanding and modeling accretion flows will allow them to measure the black hole's spin using this data.

Hubble Detects a Rogue Supermassive Black Hole#RocketLaunch #Mars #ISS #NASAInspires #Universe
The Hubble Space Telescope captured an image of a quasar named 3C 186 that is offset from the center of its galaxy. Astronomers hypothesize that this supermassive black hole was jettisoned from the center of its galaxy by the recoil from gravitational waves produced by the merging of two supermassive black holes.

Star Gives Birth to Possible Black Hole in Hubble and Spitzer Images #NASA #Space #Astronomy
A team of astronomers at The Ohio State University watched a star disappear and possibly become a black hole. Instead of becoming a black hole through the expected process of a supernova, the black hole candidate formed through a "failed supernova." The team used NASA's Hubble and Spitzer Space Telescopes and the Large Binocular Telescope to observe and monitor the star throughout the past decade. If confirmed, this would be the first time anyone has witnessed the birth of a black hole and the first discovery of a failed supernova. #NASA

A Quick Look at XJ1500+0154 #NASA #Space #Astronomy #Exploration#Science#ISS#EarthScience #Universe
Black holes are extremely compact and dense, generating incredibly powerful gravitational forces.
When an object, like a star, wanders too close, these forces can rip that object to pieces.
Some of the material from the doomed object is hurtled out into space. The black hole devours the rest.
Astronomers just found a black hole gnawing on the remains of a star for over ten years.
This is the largest meal, or the first clean-your-plate job, for a black hole ever seen.

NASA's SpaceX Crew-7 Mission to the Space Station (Official Trailer) #NASA #Space
An international crew is preparing to launch to the International Space Station aboard NASA’s SpaceX Crew-7 mission.
NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli, ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Andreas Mogensen, JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Satoshi Furukawa, and cosmonaut Konstantin Borisov of Roscosmos will perform research technology demonstrations, science experiments, and maintenance activities aboard the microgravity laboratory.
Crew-7 is targeted to launch no earlier than 3:49 a.m. EDT on Friday, Aug. 25 from Launch Complex 39A at Kennedy. As part of the agency’s Commercial Crew Program, Crew-7 marks the eighth human spaceflight mission supported by a SpaceX Dragon spacecraft and the seventh crew rotation mission to the space station since 2020 for NASA.
You can watch the launch live on NASA TV, NASA.gov, the NASA app, and on social media (@NASA).
