NASA Selects 4 Concepts for Small Missions to Study Universe’s Secrets – Space Ref

NASA has chosen four small-scale astrophysics missions for further concept development in a new program called Pioneers.
Through small satellites and scientific balloons, these selections enable new platforms for exploring cosmic phenomena such as galaxy evolution, exoplanets, high-energy neutrinos, and neutron star mergers.
“The principal investigators of these concept studies bring innovative, out-of-the-box thinking to the problem of how to do high-impact astrophysics experiments on a small…
