NASA’s space launch system is about to launch, and the new Orion spacecraft (Artemis), which is a collaboration between NASA and ESA, is slated to land on the Moon in 2024. As far as the United States is concerned, low earth orbit is now the domain of corporations, with Boeing […]

It was April 19, 1971. Salyut-1, the world’s first space station, was just launched into low Earth orbit by the Soviet Union. Two months later, on June 6, 1971, the Soyuz 11 [Soy-ooz] traveled to the orbiting space station with cosmonauts Georgi Dobrovolski, Vladislav Volkov, and Viktor Patsayev [Pat-sigh-yev] on […]

Kevin Costner’s Water World did poorly at the box office, grossing just $80 million on a budget of $172 million. The film went on to become a cult classic, and even though it depicted an Earth completely submerged in water, there are a handful of exoplanets with this same characteristic […]

The James Webb Space Telescope is the most powerful space telescope, including Hubble. It was so large that it had to be folded like origami in order to fit on the rocket that carried it into space. Because it is so precise and sensitive, it must be kept at temperatures […]

According to scientific research, we may not have discovered the majority of the universe’s secrets yet. According to studies and research, we have only explored about 4% of the universe, and the remaining 96% is a vast unknown filled with new particles, dark energy, and dark matter, as well as […]

Why does humanity need a telescope the size of the solar system? What space phenomena do we urgently need to examine more closely, and why does humanity need a solar system-sized telescope? Using the Japanese Subaru telescope, scientists were able to observe the most distant object ever seen from Planet, […]

The Pillars of Creation are one of the most breathtaking images ever captured by the James Webb Space Telescope. The towering tendrils of cosmic dust and gas, spanning around 4 to 5 light-years, are one of the most captivating celestial vistas imaginable. In a recent NASA photograph, Webb can be […]

Space exploration has provided us with a plethora of information, which has enabled us to create innovations and technology that have simplified human existence while also enabling us to discover more and explore further into the universe. What has the NASA telescope unearthed recently that defies all logic? WASP-76b is […]

Elon Musk and NASA have revealed a light-speed engine faster than anything ever seen in the aerospace industry. Musk and NASA have been collaborating with each other for some time now in their shared ambition to explore the depths of space. With the successful testing of this new engine, they […]

Traveling around the solar system for 45 years takes its toll on a spacecraft. NASA’s Voyager 1 mission launched in 1977, entered what scientists refer to as interstellar space in 2012, and then just kept going – the spacecraft is now 14.5 billion miles (23.3 billion kilometers) beyond Earth. While […]
