China: Plans for Satellite Launch to Search for “New Earth”! (26.11.2025)

The Hongmeng Programme, designed to detect the universe’s “infant cries,” consists of 10 satellites forming a low-frequency radio telescope array. The satellites will travel to the far side of the Moon, a naturally quiet “radio sanctuary” shielded from Earth and solar interference, allowing the system to capture extremely faint signals from deep space. The project aims to shed light on the turbulent epoch hundreds of millions of years after the Big Bang, before the first stars formed.

Magnetic Pulse - Chirp - 2025

China: Joint Research Team – Unexpected “Chirping Chorus” Detected from Outer Space! (23.1.2025)

According to the research team, electromagnetic bursts play a crucial role in the formation of the Earth’s radiation belts, pulsating auroras, and the precipitation of particles into its atmosphere. Traditional views hold that chorus waves are formed in the magnetic field of a dipole of near-Earth space, where the magnetic field is similar to a large bar magnet.

The newly-found chorus waves were detected in a region where Earth’s magnetic field is stretched out, which scientists didn’t expect. They lasted about 0.1 second with a frequency of nearly 100 hertz per second, which are similar to the waves detected in near-Earth space. That raises fresh questions about how these chirping waves form.
