NASA's Dana Weigel was named incoming permanent program manager for the International Space Station (ISS) on Monday (Feb. 26), succeeding Joel Montalbano. As Weigel takes office on April 7, she will become the first woman to serve in the role.
Odysseus touched down about 190 miles (300 kilometers) from the moon's south pole on Thursday (Feb. 22), becoming the first private spacecraft ever to land softly on Earth's nearest neighbor - and the first American vehicle to do since since the final Apollo mission in 1972. We just got a fresh look at Odysseus' epic descent, thanks to three new photos from Intuitive Machines.
The free smart solar filter that comes with a telescope of your choice from Unistellar's website allows you to view the solar eclipse on April 8 safely. We strongly recommend using safe solar equipment to view the eclipse and of course, once the eclipse is over, you will still have a top piece of kit so you can have great views of the stars and beyond. Plus, you can safely observe the sun during the day without running the risk of damaging the telescope or its sensitive image sensor.
Between Saturday (Feb. 24) and Monday (Feb. 26), as the sunspot known as AR3590 turned toward Earth, it also grew by around 25% to become the largest sunspot of the current 11-year solar cycle, solar cycle 25, measuring around 9.5 times the surface area of Earth.
After spending more than three days inside a SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule during his most recent mission, a private astronaut says he'd gladly jump in again.
Astronomers have used the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and an effect predicted by Albert Einstein over 100 years ago to discover that small galaxies in the early cosmos packed a massive punch, shaping the entire universe when it was less than 1 billion years old.
SpaceX just notched another milestone ahead of its next astronaut mission. The company announced Tuesday (Feb. 27) that it had conducted a static fire test with the Falcon 9 rocket that will launch the Crew-8 mission to the International Space Station (ISS) for NASA. Static fires are common prelaunch trials in which a rocket's engines are ignited briefly while the vehicle is anchored to the pad.
Scientists have discovered that a potentially habitable planet is having its atmosphere stripped, a process that may eventually render the world, Trappist-1e, inhospitable to life. The stripping appears to be caused by electric currents created as the planet races around its red dwarf host star.
