I dati dell'Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer #AMS02 su @Space_Station#ISS hanno portato a precise misurazioni comportamentali dei deuteroni, coppie protone-neutrone trovate nei raggi cosmici. Queste scoperte fanno progredire la ricerca della materia oscura e approfondiscono la comprensione dell'universo.

A #Photograph of #Space #Shuttle #Endeavour’s #crew cabin and nose. The name “Endeavour” is clearly visible below the #cockpit #windscreen. Below the name is an emergency escape #hatch. The “seam” where the payload bay doors meet the pressurized section is visible, as are several of the hinges on the doors.
The #SpaceShuttle’s reinforced carbon-carbon nose is visible, behind which is the forward Reaction Control System pod and its nozzles, which merges into the crew section.
This #Photo was taken after #NASA’s STS-134 mission to deliver the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer-02 to the #ISS.
Endeavour is being towed to an Orbiter Processing Facility to be serviced and then prepared for #museum display. The #Orbiter is on public display at the California #Science Center.

A #photograph of #NASA’s #SpaceShuttle #Endeavour and its #reflection in a pond in the lower left of the frame. The #Orbiter has just returned from STS-134 mission to deliver the #AlphaMagneticSpectrometer02 #AMS02 to the #InternationalSpaceStation #ISS. The #Shuttle is being towed back to an Orbiter Processing Facility #OPF for servicing after this mission.
The Atlantis Orbiter had been rolled out to LC-39A hours earlier for the final Shuttle mission.

While #NASA's   #SpaceShuttle #Endeavour was returning after its mission carry the #AMS02 instrument that is being used to look for evidence of #darkmatter, #Atlantis was being readied to carry the a load of supplies to the #ISS /International Space Station.
Atlantis and its stack were rolled out of the #VAB /Vehicle Assembly Building’s doors, the largest in the world, and to LC-39A on the #crawlertransporter, carrying the #ShuttleStack and making an incredible average speed of 1 mile per hour.
