Captured NAZI V2 rockets allowed scientists to get brief glimpses of space and the curvature of the Earth as these missiles travelled along ballistic trajectories. But for longer duration scientific studies – researchers relied on high altitude balloons to carry scientific payloads and even people to the edge of space. *Studying the gamma ray skies Gamma rays are the most energetic forms of electromagnetic radiation and are emitted by some of the most powerful events in the universe. Now, a team of astronomers have published 14 papers in a special issue of the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics covering some fifteen years of gamma ray observations of the Milky Way. *Atlas V 551 flexes it muscles on air force launch The most powerful version of the Atlas V rocket equipped with now fewer than five strap-on solid rocket boosters was needed to provide enough thrust to lift the United States Air Force Space Command’s AFSPC-11 mission into orbit.
