We've got another big week in space lined up.
Earlier this month, Japan's Hayabusa2 spacecraft returned spectacular images of a near-Earth asteroid following a super-close flyby on July 5. Prior to the flyby, however, there was heated debate within the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) before teams signed off on the daring attempt. We've got an inside look at what went down.
In other news, we're still looking forward to the upcoming Flight 13 of SpaceX's Starship rocket. SpaceX is currently aiming for Thursday (July 23). We'll keep you posted with all of the updates as they come. Elsewhere, we've got a look at the 50th anniversary of NASA's Viking 1, the first successful Mars lander in history. There's still some debate over what exactly the lander detected in Martian soil.
We've got all that and more at Space today.

Fifty years after the NASA lander touched down, the jury is still out on what exactly Viking 1 found in the Red Planet soil. Regardless of what it may or may not have found, in looking back and commemorating the mission's 50th anniversary, one is struck by the bold and audacious undertaking.

As we countdown to another Starship Flight 13 launch attempt on July 23, we're also looking up to keep our eyes peeled for the Perseid meteor shower that began last week. The shower will peak in mid-August under the dark skies of the new moon, so this could be a good year to catch shooting stars.
We're tracking other SpaceX launches this week, and are counting down to the August 2026 total solar eclipse that will be visible from Spain, Iceland and Greenland. With a recent World Cup victory under its belt, Spain certainly has reasons to celebrate this summer!
