NASA’s plan to return humans to the surface of the Moon needs several puzzle pieces to come together in time, one of which is the lunar lander itself. For the first two planned crewed landings, that capability is coming from SpaceX and its Starship rocket.
The bright minds at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory never disappoint with the clever creations at the lab's annual pumpkin carving contest.
China's three-person Shenzhou 18 crew have passed the keys to the Tiangong space station to its new occupants.
A signal beamed at Earth from Mars in 2023 has finally been decoded by a father and daughter team in the United States.
A new trailer has arrived for Disney+'s "Star Wars: Skeleton Crew," a new family-oriented live-action series starring Jude Law.
Astronomers have used a range of telescopes, including Hubble, to watch as particles dance around a neutron star collision that created the smallest black hole ever seen.
If there are alien civilizations in the Universe, some of them could be super advanced. So advanced that they can rip apart planets and create vast shells surrounding a star to capture all its energy. These Dyson spheres should be detectable by modern telescopes. Occasionally astronomers find an object that resembles such an alien megastructure, but so far, they’ve all turned out to be natural objects. As best we can tell, there are no Dyson spheres out there.
What is the difference between these two shopping sales events, and which is best, Black Friday or Cyber Monday? Read on to find out.
Valencia was particularly hard-hit.
Three decades later, Stargate's legacy has endured. We look back at how it all started, what came after, and the franchise's possible future.
The sun erupted with an X-class solar flare on Halloween, and solar activity is expected to remain high through Nov. 3.
New technologies including recoverable satellites and in-orbit space debris recycling could help solve the satellite air pollution problem and prevent a new ecological crisis in the future.

When disaster strikes, maintaining communication is critical. Yet, terrestrial (ground) networks are often compromised, leaving civilians stranded and first responders without access to vital information. Limited bandwidth can severely delay crisis management efforts, potentially costing lives. Recent events around the world, including devastating floods and wildfires, underscore the increasing relevance and urgency for advanced disaster response technology.
Is there something strange and alien confined deep inside the Earth? Is it trying to break free and escape into the heavens? No, of course not.
In 1978, NASA scientists Donald J. Kessler and Burton G. Cour-Palais proposed a scenario where the density of objects in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) would be high enough that collisions between objects would cause a cascade effect. In short, these collisions would create debris that would result in more collisions, more debris, and so on. This came to be known as the Kessler Syndrome, something astronomers, scientists, and space environmentalists have feared for many decades. In recent years, and with the deployment of more satellites than ever, the warning signs have become undeniable.
