Wang was sent to Tiangong to undertake construction activities. Tiangong is a space station. China is building it. Wang moved out of Tianhe to take part […]

Earth-observing satellite Landsat 9, the joint mission of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the US Geological Survey (USGS), has captured first light images of Earth. The images have now been released by the space agency. According to NASA, all images were taken on October 31. These images give a preview of how it […]

The Double Asteroid Redirection Test mission is all set for a launch. According to NASA, the mission will be launched on November 24. The spacecraft will be launched aboard SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket. It is a partially reusable launch vehicle. DART is a planetary defense mission. The agency intends deliberately crash the spacecraft into an […]

NASA’s Lucy research probe is almost ready for deployment on Oct. 16 from Florida’s Space Coast to start a 12-year trip through the solar system to explore 8 asteroids, a record amount for a single spaceship. The Lucy spacecraft was tested last month in a climate-controlled sterile environment at the Astrotech cargo processing plant in […]

Studies have suggested that Mars’s surface was once wet. The planet was home to an ocean of water. Water was present in its real state that covered the planet’s entire surface. However, the Red Planet’s water dried up. The planet today is a frigid desert. NASA and several other world agencies are exploring Mars. They […]

Scientists have published a paper wherein they have talked about a new planet. The planet could be orbiting the Sun just like any other planet in the solar system. For now, there are eight planets. The new planet is said to be beyond Neptune. Neptune is the farthest planet from Sun and is at the […]

Blue Origin has announced another crewed flight to space. It will blast off from Texas. The company has fixed October 12 for the launch. This will be Blue Origin’s second human flight to space. The private aerospace company said that the flight will be launched aboard New Shepard. Overall, this will be the 18th mission […]

The Hubble Space Telescope had in December last year clicked an image of a Molten Ring. The image showed a narrow galaxy curved around. Scientists described it as a rare optical phenomenon. It was dubbed an Einstein ring. The molten Einstein ring has now pushed the need for new research. The photo showed a remote […]

Chinese scientists have started studying Moon rocks that were brought back recently. The lunar rocks were collected by the Chang’e 5 mission. Scientists will explore the rock’s potential for fusion power. Having a clear understanding of the lunar rock’s geology is important in planning future missions. China is one of the nations that is planning […]

Volcanic eruptions are common on Mars. The planet is home to thousands of ancient eruptions. However, the Earth’s neighbor has no active volcanoes today. Past studies suggested that the Red Planet has lost the heat that was stored inside it when it was formed. NASA scientists have now claimed to found evidence that the planet […]

Quakes are common on Mars. According to NASA, it has just recorded a long quake on the planet. The magnitude of the quake reached 4.2. The agency said that the quake shook the Martian ground for more than 1.5 hours. The quake was recorded by InSight. InSight is a lander. NASA sent the lander to […]

The existence of black holes was first predicted by renowned physicist Albert Einstein. He used his general theory of relativity to discover black holes more than 100 years ago. Black holes are basically a place in space where gravity is extreme. The gravitational force doesn’t allow anything even the light to escape. Physicists have now […]

A team of astronomers has managed to capture the most detailed images of the asteroid 216 Kleopatra. The sharpest images yet of the asteroid were captured by using the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope (ESO’s VLT). The images helped the team of astronomers to develop the 3D shape and mass of the asteroid which […]

China is further pressing for advancing its Mars program. The company recently managed to land a rover on the surface. It has described the mission as a huge success. Chinese scientists have now developed a prototype drone for future Mars missions. The drone is said to be quite similar to Ingenuity. Ingenuity is a Mars […]

NASA is planning to launch a mission to Titan. Titan is an icy moon of Saturn. Scientists believe that the moon is home to organic molecules that are found on Earth. They are now recreating the conditions of Titan on Earth to understand Titan’s atmosphere. Researchers at Southern Methodist University recreated the chemistry of Titan […]

NASA is planning to launch a mission to Saturn. It will be different from the previous Cassini mission. The US agency is planning to launch a rotorcraft. The flying robotic spacecraft will explore Titan which is among 82 known natural satellites of the gas giant. It is the largest moon in the ringed world. The […]

Returning Martian samples to Earth is something that no space agency has achieved so far. According to NASA, its rover Perseverance is carrying instruments that can drill Martian rocks and collect them in a tube for a possible return to Earth during future missions. As planned, the rover recently tried to collect samples. However, it […]

The entire world is looking for green alternatives with many even setting the target of reaching net-zero emissions by 2050. While there is a lot to be done in order to achieve this goal, many believed that ‘blue hydrogen’ could be the solution. There are many who are of the view that the use of […]
