A team of researchers from APL and the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health is developing next-generation brain organoid platforms to better understand the effects of mild blast-induced ...
Unlike Earth, the Moon doesn’t have a global magnetic field. Instead, it has local patches of magnetized crustal rocks, called “magnetic anomalies.” Lunar Vertex will be the first mission to find out ...
As COVID-19 cases multiplied in early 2020, so too did the number of users turning to the Johns Hopkins University dashboard, which tracked global cases of COVID-19 in real time and quickly became the ...
NASA’s Dragonfly mission team is moving on to the next stage of development on the revolutionary, car-sized nuclear-powered drone it plans to fly over and land on the organic-rich sands of Saturn’s ...
Researchers from Johns Hopkins APL and the Johns Hopkins Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences are developing a modeling tool to predict climate “tipping points,” critical thresholds that, when ...
NASA’s Electrojet Zeeman Imaging Explorer (EZIE), scheduled to launch in late 2024, will image the magnetic fingerprint of the electrical currents that flow in the upper atmosphere and between Earth ...
The Vector Magnetometers are key elements of the Lunar Vertex mission, working in tandem to characterize the source of the Reiner Gamma magnetic anomaly. The Vector Magnetometer-Lander (VML) is a ...
Controlling a computer with your mind was once pure science fiction, but it’s now plausible thanks to brain-computer interface (BCI) technology. Today’s BCI systems have achieved extraordinary ...
NASA and SpaceX are now targeting as soon as September 2025 for the launch of the agency’s Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP) spacecraft, which is currently undergoing integration and ...
By leveraging cutting-edge additive manufacturing techniques and shape memory alloys, researchers at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, Maryland, have created an antenna ...
NASA’s Dragonfly, the first rotorcraft designed for scientific exploration on another ocean world, has passed its Critical Design Review. Led by the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in ...
APL has collaborated with Purdue University on the Boundary Layer Transition (BOLT) Experiments, partnering with Purdue professors, researchers and graduate students on the project and utilizing ...
