NASA's InSight Mars lander has shaken off the effects of a recent dust storm, likely allowing the spacecraft to collect science data for a few more months.
Scientists watching the skies for asteroids that may threaten Earth have hit a new milestone, spotting the 10,000th sizable space rock that circles the sun near Earth's orbit.
If a super-advanced civilization had to ability to engineer the solar system from scratch, how many planets could they squeeze around the sun?
A Russian cargo spacecraft arrived at the International Space Station early Thursday morning (Feb. 17), delivering nearly 3 tons of supplies and equipment to the orbiting lab.
Peptides are one of the smallest biomolecules and are one of life’s critical building blocks. New research shows that they could form on the surfaces of icy grains in space. This discovery lends credence to the idea that meteoroids, asteroids, or comets could have given life on Earth a kick start by crashing into the planet and delivering biological building blocks.
A prolific NASA space telescope has closed its camera eye for now due to a power issue that has stalled the observatory's science work.
China has achieved a great deal in the final frontier recently, and the new document makes clear that the country plans to build aggressively on those successes.
