The James Webb Space Telescope, a collaboration between NASA, ESA, and CSA, has recently captured stunning images of the Ring Nebula, also known as M57 and NGC 6720. This well-known planetary nebula, located approximately 2,500 light-years away from Earth, has been observed with unprecedented detail. The new images taken by the Webb telescope provide remarkable […]

Mars, the Red Planet, has always intrigued scientists in their search for signs of extraterrestrial life. Unlike Earth, Mars lacks plate tectonics and its surface remains relatively unchanged over billions of years. This stability has allowed remnants of ancient rivers and lakes to be preserved on the Martian surface. In 2012, NASA’s Curiosity rover embarked […]

On Aug. 19, the Russian spacecraft Luna 25 experienced a tragic accident during a planned orbit maneuver. After successfully completing an eight-day flight and two orbit corrections, Luna 25 was positioned in a circumlunar orbit with dimensions of 90 by 113 kilometers. The next step was to transfer to a pre-landing orbit with dimensions of […]

In December 2022, NASA lost contact with its InSight Mars lander after it had been operating on the Martian surface for over four years. Despite this setback, scientists have continued to analyze the data collected by InSight and have made some exciting discoveries. One team of scientists, led by Sebastien Le Maistre of the Royal […]

Cracks in Martian Mud Uncover Clues to the Origins of Life In a groundbreaking discovery, NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover has uncovered a patchwork of well-preserved ancient mud cracks on the surface of Mars. These cracks, found in a transitional zone between clay-rich layers and sulfate-enriched layers, offer the first evidence of wet-dry cycles occurring on […]

Preparations are underway at Starbase for the upcoming second Starship test flight, with Booster 9 expected to return to the launch site soon.
