The electromagnetic spectrum is the full range of electromagnetic radiation, organized by frequency or wavelength. The spectrum is divided into separate bands, with different names for the electromagnetic waves within each band. From low to high frequency these are: radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and ...
Researchers have released initial measurements of radiation levels experienced inside NASA's Orion spacecraft during its 25-day uncrewed Artemis I mission in 2022 around the moon and back to Earth.
On 31 May 2013, NASA scientists reported that a possible crewed mission to Mars may involve a greater radiation risk than previously believed, based on the amount of energetic particle radiation detected by the RAD on the Mars Science Laboratory while traveling from the Earth to Mars in 2011–2012.

September 18, 2024 at 11:00 AM. The shielded areas in Nasa’s lunar spacecraft can protect astronauts travelling to the moon against the harmful effects of space radiation, research suggests ...
Great Observatories program. NASA 's series of Great Observatories satellites are four large, powerful space-based astronomical telescopes launched between 1990 and 2003. They were built with different technology to examine specific wavelength/energy regions of the electromagnetic spectrum: gamma rays, X-rays, visible and ultraviolet light, and ...
More importantly, this image could help scientists better understand how fast the universe is expanding. A team of researchers chose to observe the galaxy cluster PLCK G165.7+67.0, also known as ...
Planck was a space observatory operated by the European Space Agency (ESA) from 2009 to 2013. It was an ambitious project that aimed to map the anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at microwave and infrared frequencies, with high sensitivity and angular resolution. The mission was highly successful and substantially improved ...
According to NASA, “the typical average dose for a person is about 360 mrems per year, or 3.6 mSv, which is a small dose. However, International Standards allow exposure to as much as 5,000 ...
