Astronomers found the Milky Way lies within a massive flat sheet of dark matter about 32 million light-years across. Simulations show this structure and...

Astronomers created the largest 3D map of hydrogen emission from the early universe using data from the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment. The map...

New Webb observations refined asteroid 2024 YR4’s orbit, showing it will safely pass about 21,200 km from the Moon in December 2032. The earlier...

The Expedition 74 crew aboard the International Space Station is preparing to release Japan’s HTV-X1 cargo spacecraft after four months docked. Using Canadarm2, the...

Astronomers are testing a new way to measure the universe’s expansion rate using the gravitational-wave background detected by NANOGrav. By treating the cosmic hum...

NASA’s Carruthers Observatory has begun its two-year science mission to study Earth’s hydrogen-rich exosphere from a halo orbit at Sun–Earth L1. Equipped with ultraviolet...

A rare total lunar eclipse will occur on March 3–4, 2026, turning the full Moon a striking copper-red colour. Visible across Asia, Australia, and...

NASA has tested a solar-powered prototype that extracts oxygen from simulated lunar soil using concentrated sunlight and carbon. The Carbothermal Reduction Demonstration heats moon...

NASA’s ESCAPADE mission will send two identical orbiters to Mars to study how solar wind and space weather strip away the planet’s atmosphere. Launching...

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured remarkably detailed infrared images of PMR 1, known as the “Exposed Cranium,” a planetary nebula roughly 5,000...

The James Webb Space Telescope has produced the first 3D map of Uranus’s upper atmosphere, tracking temperatures and ion densities up to 5,000 kilometers...

NASA astronomers using the Chandra X-ray Observatory have discovered a vast, million-degree gas bubble surrounding HD 61005, a 100-million-year-old Sun-like star about 120 light-years...

NASA has rolled back the Artemis II SLS rocket and Orion spacecraft after engineers detected a helium flow issue in the upper stage during...

Scientists drilled deeper than ever beneath the West Antarctic Ice Sheet and found sediment and marine remains showing the area was once open ocean....

Scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory simulated one million potential satellite orbits between Earth and the Moon to assess long-term stability. Fewer than 10%...

Astronomers have identified CDG-2, a faint galaxy in the Perseus cluster that appears to be composed almost entirely of dark matter. Located 300 million...

Boeing’s Starliner test flight has been reclassified by NASA as a Type A mishap after propulsion anomalies extended the mission from days to 93...

Microsoft’s Project Silica demonstrates that digital data can be stored in ordinary borosilicate glass for over 10,000 years. Using femtosecond lasers, researchers encode information...

A new global map of small mare ridges suggests the Moon’s tectonic activity is younger and more widespread than previously believed. Researchers identified more...
