NASA's Perseverance Mars rover imaging team took advantage of the Red Planet's clear skies to capture one of the clearest panoramic views of its mission to date. The mosaic image is composed of 96 i...

In future lunar and Mars exploration missions, astronauts will rely on satellites for critical services such as navigation, weather monitoring, and communication relays. To address the communication d...

To support long-term lunar missions, meet astronauts' needs for food and oxygen, and reduce the high costs of transportation from Earth, a research team from the Technical University of Munich conduc...

Astronomers from Wuhan University in China used the Insight-HXMT (Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope) satellite to observe a major outburst of the X-ray binary RX J0440.9+4431 that occurred approximately...

Researchers from a research institute affiliated with the Moscow Aviation Institute have developed a Hall-effect thruster model HT-1000. This device generates thrust by ejecting a high-speed ion flow ...

Astronomers from the University of Warwick, in collaboration with Spanish institutions, are exploring a new way to repurpose traditional astronomical observation tools as climate sensors to track chan...

Since the discovery of planetary nebulae in the late 18th century, astronomers have known that these gas shells ejected by low- to intermediate-mass stars at the end of their lives exhibit a wide vari...

An international team led by the University of Geneva and the University of Montreal has recently published the first observational results from the Near-Infrared Photon Beam Spectrometer (NIRPS), ins...

Since Earth's formation, micro-meteorites from space have continuously impacted and deposited on the surface. Their fossil remains, capable of preservation for billions of years, serve as important c...

Scientists at Sandia National Laboratories, led by John Sandusky, have proposed a novel idea to repurpose heliostats—typically used to convert solar energy into electricity—for nighttime operation...

Recently, the Hubble Space Telescope, a collaboration between NASA and ESA, captured a sharp image of the spiral galaxy NGC 3285B. The galaxy is located in the constellation Hydra, approximately 137 m...

Not far off the California coast, NASA's Relativistic Electron Atmospheric Loss (REAL) CubeSat mission successfully launched aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg Space Force Base near Sant...
