NASA, a publicly owned agency, was founded in the United States in 1958. Its primary function is the research, development, and manufacturing of aviation and aerospace components. The agency employs approximately 39,550 people and is headquartered in the US.
NASA engineers deactivated Voyager 1's cosmic ray subsystem experiment on February 2024 to conserve energy for the spacecraft's continued interstellar exploration. This action, taken by engineers at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), follows a similar energy-saving measure for both Voyager 1 and Voyager 2. Separately, astronomers reported the discovery of a tilted supermassive black hole in galaxy NGC 5084, revealed through advanced image analysis of archival data. In other news, NASA observed a polar cyclone on Uranus, providing new insights into the planet's weather patterns.
