In the distant reaches of the solar system are many icy objects that resemble snowmen. Now, a new study reveals the simple way in which these mysterious objects might form.

Faster, more secure connections from space could one day make broadband on planes, ships and even remote roads as easy as turning on a light. The European Space Agency (ESA), Airbus Defence and Space, the Netherlands Organisation for Applied Scientific Research (TNO) and German payload manufacturer TESAT (as subcontractor) successfully connected an aircraft to a geostationary satellite using laser communications, bringing people closer to seamless, high‑speed connections in daily life.

NASA has returned its Artemis 2 moon rocket to the Vehicle Assembly Building, where engineers can diagnose and repair an issue with the vehicle's upper stage.

Telescopes are instruments designed for observing distant objects by collecting electromagnetic radiation. They are fundamental tools in astronomy, allowing us to see objects far beyond the resolution of the naked eye.

Our thoughts on the world’s first dedicated 360-degree drone — the Antigravity A1.

Astronomers have used the LOFAR telescope array to create the largest radio survey of the cosmos, revealing 13.7 million cosmic scenes, including supermassive black holes, merging galaxies, and supernova explosions.

NASA’s crawler-transporter 2, carrying NASA’s Artemis 2 SLS (Space Launch System) rocket with the Orion spacecraft secured to mobile launcher 1, rolls back Wednesday, Feb. 25, 2026, to the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida to troubleshoot the flow of helium to the rocket’s upper stage, the interim cryogenic propulsion stage. Once complete, the SLS rocket will roll back to Launch Complex 39B to prepare to launch four astronauts around the Moon and back for the Artemis 2 test flight. Image: NASA/Kim Shiflett

NASA hauled its Artemis 2 moon rocket off its seaside pad Wednesday for a slow trip back to a processing facility to track down and fix a helium pressurization problem that has delayed launch of four astronauts on a flight around the moon from this month to at least April 1.

NASA has shed more light on last month's early end to SpaceX's Crew-11 mission to the International Space Station, at the request of the astronaut who experienced the medical issue that caused their return.
