Researchers Generate 3D Simulations of Deep Jet Streams, Storms on Jupiter And Saturn

A University of Alberta researcher has successfully generated 3D simulations of deep jet streams and storms on Jupiter and Saturn, helping to satiate our eternal quest for knowledge of planetary dynamics. The results facilitate a deeper understanding of planetary weather and provide clues to the dynamics of Earth's weather patterns evidenced in jet streams and ocean currents.

LISA Pathfinder Satellite to Test New Technologies for Detecting Gravitational Waves in Space

We are into the final countdown: at 5:15 AM CET on 2 December, a Vega-type rocket will lift off from Europe’s spaceport in Kourou and take a “pathfinder” into space: LISA Pathfinder is a mission to test new technologies for the planned gravitational wave observatory known as eLISA, which will one day capture the sound of the universe. The Pathfinder project has entailed more than ten years of scientific development work. The Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics (Albert Einstein Institute) in Hanover is one of the leading partners.
