The author of a new book on the DART mission takes us behind the scenes of the day NASA smacked an asteroid.
The Shijian-19 satellite carried seeds to orbit, exposing them to the microgravity environment to test plant mutation in space.
Following a series of new maneuvers, the spaceplane will wrap up its seventh mission after nearly a year in space.
The famous red eye of the storm squeezes in and out for reasons unknown.
The event could cause glowing in the atmosphere and damage electrical infrastructure when it arrives, but we won't know the severity of the event until it's near.
The gargantuan object is driving a "cosmic two-for-one" that could shed light on the source of a weird kind of X-ray.
Mars is generally regarded as a place that can't support life, but new research sheds light on how the Red Planet evolved into the barren, inhospitable world we see today.
NASA selected two space observatory proposals for additional review, and one is expected to be cleared for a 2032 launch.
We've seen faces on Mars before, but this one is the most relatable.
The Europa Clipper was set to launch Thursday but Mother Nature had other plans.
NASA is in desperate need of an alternative plan for its Mars Sample Return, and is hoping the private industry can salvage its ambitious mission.
A follow-up mission to DART, Hera will travel to a binary asteroid to observe the aftermath of NASA's wildly successful kinetic impact test.
ULA's heavy-lift rocket needs to prove that it's got what it takes to launch military payloads to orbit. After today's not-so-perfect launch, we're a bit apprehensive.
Centaur 29P, an icy object in the outer solar system, is spewing unusual jets of hot gas, revealing its hybrid nature as a mashup of different cosmic bodies.
ULA's heavy-lift rocket is poised to make a big impact in the industry, but tomorrow's second launch will need to go well for that to happen.
The storm should arrive today or tomorrow, and could bring with it some brilliant auroras.
The newly identified three-body system has a problem, and it’s not aliens—it’s that in about 20 million years, the stars are expected to merge and explode.
After successfully launching a crew to the ISS, the rocket's upper stage experienced an anomaly during its deorbit burn.
A gravitational lens tripled the event in the night sky and helped astronomers measure the rate at which the universe is expanding.
While the storm could pose a threat to fragile electric systems, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says the danger is minor.
