nasa colliding neutron stars create black hole and gamma-ray burst
Bookmarked 733 weeks ago armed with state-of-the-art supercomputer models scientists have shown that colliding neutron stars can produce the energetic jet required for a gamma-ray burst earlier simulations demonstrated that mergers could make black holes others had shown that the high-speed particle jets needed to make a gamma-ray burst would continue if placed in the swirling wreckage of a recent mergernow the simulations reveal the middle step of the process--how the merging stars039 magnetic field organizes itself into outwardly directed components capable of forming a jet the damiana supercomputer at germany039s max planck institute for gravitational physics needed six weeks to reveal the details of a process that unfolds in just 35 thousandths of a second--less than the blink of an eyethis video is public domain and can be downloaded at: http:svsgsfcnasagovgoto10740like our videos subscribe to nasa039s goddard shorts hd podcast:http:svsgsfcnasagovvisitunesf0004_indexhtmlor find nasa goddard space flight center on facebook:http:wwwfacebookcomnasagsfcor find us on twitter:http:twittercomnasagoddard |

ascent - commemorating shuttle
Bookmarked 783 weeks ago photographic documentation of a space shuttle launch plays a critical role in the engineering analysis and evaluation process that takes place during each and every mission motion and still images enable shuttle engineers to visually identify off-nominal events and conditions requiring corrective action to ensure mission safety and success this imagery also provides highly inspirational and educational insight to those outside the nasa familythis compilation of film and video presents the best of the best ground-based shuttle motion imagery from sts-114 sts-117 and sts-124 missions rendered in the highest definition possible this production is a tribute to the dozens of men and women of the shuttle imaging team and the 30yrs of achievement of the space shuttle programthe video was produced by matt melis at the glenn research center |
