Rumforskere sætter Danmark på forsiden og strøm til grundforskningenMon 20 Jan 2020, 13:21Det er sjældent, at dansk forskning rydder forsiden hos et af verdens mest anerkendte videnskabelige tidsskrifter, Science. Men det skete for nylig - ganske velfortjent. Danmarks hidtil dyreste rumprojekt, ASIM fra DTU Space, kunne for første gang fortælle detaljeret, hvad der foregår, når tordenguden Thor kører sin stridsvogn hen over himlen med Mjølner højt hævet. Forskerne gav et unikt kig ind i nogle af klodens voldsomste energiudladninger, nemlig de såkaldte jordiske gammaglimt, som opstår i særlige former for lyn. |
