Science & Space Roundup: Top News of the Day (Feb 9)

Here are today’s most important updates from the realm of Science and Space. Peering Inside the Northern Lights: NASA Plans Aurora ‘CT Scan’ NASA scientists to perform a CT scan of the auroras to get insight details about these stunning 'dancing lights', which are formed when charged solar particles collide with gases in Earth's upper atmosphere, usually visible near the magnetic poles. The launch of the Geophysical Non-Equilibrium Ionospheric System Science (GNEISS) mission was scheduled to take place from Alaska's Poker Flat Research Range in February 2026. Auroras, also called the northern lights, are nothing but a giant cosmic electrical circuit, and the scientists want to study them by sending two rockets through them, with each deploying four sub-payloads. These payloads will transmit radio signals to ground receivers, acting like a CT scan to map the density and direction of electrons. Eyes on the Skies: Will Comet Wierzchos Be Seen ...
