Long-dead satellite emits strong radio signal, puzzling astronomers NASA launched communications satellite Relay 2 in 1964. Three years later, Relay 2's mission was over.

If you're wondering how a dead satellite can do that, you're not alone, because no one knows for sure. In fact, the on-board equipment is not even capable of transmitting a 30 nanosecond pulse.

NASA satellite emits 'spark' decades after going dormant: Astronomers think they know why Source of the radio waves was tracked to a location that matches that of NASA’s defunct Relay 2 ...

So Clancy James at Curtin University in Australia and his colleagues were perplexed when, nearly 60 years later, they detected a brief, powerful burst of radio waves coming from the satellite’s ...

The company led by CEO Jennifer Witz has introduced "a new low-cost, ad-supported subscription plan" — a move seen by Netflix ...

Lessons from satellite radio As I have previously argued, the history of satellite radio anticipated the broader turn to subscription music listening.

A mysterious and powerful blast of radio waves detected last year, suspected to originate far beyond the Milky Way came from a long-dead NASA spacecraft in Earth's orbit.

Communicating with space-based ham radio satellites might sound like it’s something that takes a lot of money, but in reality it’s one of the more accessible aspects of the hobby. Gener… ...
