APL researchers are using a statistical shape atlas — a detailed map of variations in human anatomy — to predict the likely location of internal organs based on external body landmarks. This predictive modeling is aided by augmented reality technology, allowing medics to view an overlay of the patient’s internal anatomy directly on their body.
On Jan. 27, the three spacecraft that make up NASA’s Electrojet Zeeman Imaging Explorer (EZIE) mission reached the launch site at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, where they will undergo final preparations before launch.
For the fourth consecutive year, APL was honored with a Glassdoor Employees’ Choice Award as one of the top 100 Best Places to Work among large U.S. companies.
NASA’s mission to “touch” the Sun has confirmed that it survived its record-breaking closest approach to the Sun’s surface on December 24, 2024.
For the seventh straight year, APL has placed in the top 25 of Computerworld’s “Best Places to Work in IT” list, which recognizes the top worldwide workplaces for information technology professionals.
Racing against a backdrop of a bright blue sky in the midday Sun, NASA’s Europa Clipper spacecraft climbed into the sky atop a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket on Oct. 14.
APL is the only organization to rank in the top 50 of Best Workplaces for Innovators list since the award's inception in 2019.
Researchers are using generative artificial intelligence and cutting-edge scene-mapping technology to elevate robots from simple tools to full teammates capable of providing aid in disaster and battlefield scenarios.
In the months that followed NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission, which sent a spacecraft to intentionally collide with an asteroid moonlet, the science team verified that kinetic impact was a viable deflection technique, proving one effective method of preventing future asteroid strikes on Earth.
Johns Hopkins researchers have developed an innovative navigation system designed to help blind or visually impaired users of prosthetic vision devices by improving their independence and mobility through enhanced environmental awareness and navigation support.
