NASA has been responsible for some of the most significant space exploration missions in history, including the Apollo missions, the Space Shuttle program, and the International Space Station. We have a wide range of topics related to NASA, including space exploration, planetary science, astrophysics, aeronautics, and more. Delve into the history of NASA and the people who have made it the incredible organization it is today.
Uncrewed Starliner spacecraft safely returns from space.
Boeing Starliner will return home today. Here’s the timing of the return and how to watch it live.
NASA demonstrates a new quantum tool called an atom interferometer, which can accurately measure gravity.
NASA’s Cold Atom Lab, a pioneering facility on the International Space Station, has advanced the potential of quantum science in space. The science team has used one of the lab’s tools to measure subtle vibrations of the space station — marking the first use of ultra-cold atoms to detect environmental changes in space.
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope finds carbon source on the surface of Jupiter’s moon Europa.
JWST discovers carbon-bearing molecules, methane and carbon dioxide, in the atmosphere of the K2-18b exoplanet.
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has conducted a new investigation into K2-18 b, an exoplanet that’s 8.6 times larger than Earth. The telescope discovered carbon-bearing molecules like methane and carbon dioxide, adding to recent studies that suggest K2-18 b could be a Hycean exoplanet. This type of exoplanet has the potential to have a hydrogen-rich…
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has uncovered new details in Supernova 1987A.
NASA finds June 2023 the hottest month on record.
June 2023 was the hottest June ever recorded, according to NASA’s global temperature analysis. This analysis is based on data collected from weather stations, research stations, ships, and ocean buoys. Scientists at NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York analyze this data to account for uncertainties and maintain consistent methods for calculating global…
James Webb Space Telescope hits 1-year anniversary and celebrates with a close-up image of the birth of Sun-like stars in the Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex.
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has completed its first year of science operations, delivering on its promise to reveal the universe in unprecedented detail. In celebration of this milestone, NASA has released an image of a small star-forming region in the Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex, captured by the telescope.
James Webb Space Telescope detects crucial carbon molecule in Orion Nebula.
A group of global scientists recently discovered a new carbon compound in space using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. This groundbreaking discovery of methyl cation (CH3+) in a young star system called d203-506 is the first of its kind and is significant as it assists in the formation of more complex carbon-based molecules.
