Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.

Over the course of nearly 25 years, ESA - European Space Agency and NASA’s SOHO solar observatory has found more than 4,000 previously unknown comets — a result of well-designed instruments, a long lifespan, and the work of countless citizen scientists. ☄️ https://www.nasa.gov/…/why-esa-and-nasas-soho-spacecraft-sp…

It’s SUNday — with a special guest, the Moon!
Our satellite’s view of the Sun was briefly interrupted by a lunar transit on Oct. 16. The transit lasted about 50 minutes, between 3:05 p.m. and 3:53 p.m. ET. At the peak, the Moon covered about 44% of the Sun. During this time, the Moon also happened to cover two of the spacecraft’s fine-guidance sensors — causing its view of the Sun to jitter slightly. The spacecraft, called SDO for short, recovered its steady view soon after the transit ended.
Currently, the Sun’s lower half displays two active regions — areas of intense magnetic fields on the Sun, often associated with solar activity and eruptions. Now that Solar Cycle 25 is underway, scientists expect more active regions to appear in the coming months.
SDO captured these images in a wavelength of extreme ultraviolet light. This kind of light is invisible to human eyes, and colorized here in gold.

Solar Orbiter has released its first trove of data on conditions in the inner solar system. The measurements come from the mission’s in-situ instruments, which sample the environment around the spacecraft itself to capture details on things like particles, electric and magnetic fields, and plasma and waves.

Studying the space between the stars is difficult from within our solar system’s magnetic bubble, the heliosphere. A new study uses data from NASA’s New Horizons mission to uncover clues about interstellar space using pickup ions — a class of particle that seeps through the heliosphere and into our solar system. The data suggests the interstellar medium has about 40% more hydrogen atoms than previously thought. This higher count may explain one of the biggest heliophysics mysteries of recent years: https://go.nasa.gov/34HBlcf
