Europe’s new rocket Ariane 6 powered Europe into space taking with it a varied selection of experiments, satellites, payload deployers and reentry demonstrations that represent thousands across Europe, from students to industry and experienced space actors.
The new Ariane 6 rocket launched for the first time ever today (July 9), opening a new chapter in European spaceflight history.
This Lego Marvel set packs in a venomous bite.
A sparkling jeweled ring, created through a cosmic phenomenon called gravitational lensing, has been imaged by the James Webb Space Telescope.
In 1986, the Voyager 2 spacecraft discovered Uranus has a strangely weak radiation belt. Now, researchers think this could be linked to "traffic jams" caused by the world's warped magnetic field.
Saber Interactive just launched a frightening new story trailer for the horror video game "A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead."
NASA has awarded Lockheed Martin a $2.27 billion contract to build NOAA's next generation GeoXO weather satellite constellation.

Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have witnessed the dramatic dance between a supermassive black hole-powered quasar and merging galaxies less than a billion years after the Big Bang.
Could human landing systems touching down on the moon deliver water from their rocket exhaust plumes? New research says it's a possibility.
Dutch astrocartographer Wil Tirion will be remembered as the creator of the most beautiful star maps and atlases of our time.
Discover the fascinating world of blazars: their discovery, formation, and the science behind these energetic cosmic phenomena.
We explore why comparing the number of solar flares between solar cycles is more complicated than you may think and why many have got it wrong.
The Netflix movie Don’t Look Up received plenty of accolades for its scarily realistic portrayal of a professor from Michigan State University attempting to warn the world about a civilization-ending asteroid impact. In reality, there are plenty of organizations in the US government and beyond whose job it is to find and avoid those impacts. And the best way to train them to do those jobs is to run scenarios and try to determine what actions would need to be taken. That was the idea behind the fifth Planetary Defense Interagency Tabletop Exercise, held at John Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory in April. NASA recently released a preliminary report on the results of the exercise, with a fully detailed one to come in August.
The Vaonis Vespera II is probably the best smart telescope you can buy for the money. Simplicity, style and incredibly clear astrophotographs make it a fantastic instrument.
Through the Artemis Program, NASA will return astronauts to the lunar surface for the first time since Apollo 17 landed in 1972. Beyond this historic mission, scheduled for September 2026, NASA plans to establish the infrastructure that will enable annual missions to the Moon, eventually leading to a permanent human presence there. As we addressed in a previous article, this will lead to a huge demand for cargo delivery systems that meet the logistical, scientific, and technical requirements of crews engaged in exploration.
New research suggests that galaxies with quasars at their active hearts are seven times more likely to harbor elusive supermassive black hole binary paintings than other galaxies.
A new computer simulation flies through tangled galaxies and zooms in on a black hole to dissect how these voids feats on surrounding matter.
The Milky Way is warped, and the alignment of this warp is precessing backwards around the galaxy under the influence of a squashed dark matter halo.
