John McFall, a Paralympian, medical doctor, and member of the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Astronaut Reserve, is at the forefront of redefining possibilities in space travel for individuals with disabilities. As part of ESA’s innovative FLY initiative, McFall is contributing to groundbreaking research that aims to demonstrate that physical challenges can be overcome in the […]

A collaborative effort among astronomers has resulted in the confirmation of two exoplanets and potential evidence of a third in the binary star system TOI-2267. This discovery, made possible through the use of NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and sophisticated detection software developed by the research team, could enhance our understanding of planetary formation […]

Blue Origin is preparing for the upcoming launch of its heavy-lift New Glenn rocket, which is scheduled to take off from Florida on Sunday, November 9, at 2:45 PM EST. This mission, designated “NG-2,” will carry two twin spacecraft bound for Mars. The liftoff will occur at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station from Launch Complex […]

The Copernicus Sentinel-1D satellite has successfully entered orbit as part of the ongoing Sentinel-1 mission. The satellite was launched on November 4, 2025, at 22:02 CET (18:02 local time) aboard an Ariane 6 rocket from Europe’s Spaceport located in French Guiana. This mission very important in providing high-resolution radar imagery of Earth’s surface, operating effectively […]

As the United Nations COP30 climate conference begins in Belém, Brazil, attention is focused on the Amazon rainforest, a region that embodies significant challenges and opportunities in the fight against climate change. Once a critical carbon sink, parts of the Amazon are now showing concerning trends, including some areas transitioning to net carbon emitters, as […]

A recent meteoroid impact on Mars has left its mark in the form of hundreds of new surface streaks, as captured by the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter. This event occurred on the slopes of Apollinaris Mons on Christmas Eve 2023, revealing a striking image taken by the spacecraft’s Colour and Stereo Surface Imaging System (CaSSIS). […]

Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket has successfully completed an important hotfire test of its seven BE-4 engines, lasting 38 seconds, paving the way for the launch of the Escape and Plasma Acceleration and Dynamics Explorers (ESCAPADE) mission to Mars. The company is aiming for the second flight of its heavy-lift, partially reusable rocket to take […]

The Sentinel-1 mission has been bolstered by the successful launch of the Copernicus Sentinel-1D satellite, which took to the skies on November 4, 2025, at 22:02 CET (18:02 local time). The satellite was deployed using an Ariane 6 rocket from the European Spaceport located in French Guiana. This mission is instrumental in providing high-resolution radar […]

The European Space Agency has unveiled breathtaking new imagery of interstellar gas and dust, captured by its cutting-edge Euclid space telescope. The stunning shots highlight a region known as LDN 1641, located approximately 1,300 light-years from Earth and nestled within a vast network of molecular clouds in the Orion constellation, where star formation is actively […]
