The coming week will also see the continued growth of several satellite constellations and the winners of NASA's Deep Space Food Challenge.
JUICE’s 52-foot-long antenna is now at full length, but it required some serious coaxing—and a big jolt—to get the job done.
The aging space telescope retired after 16 years of service, but a servicing mission could help bring Spitzer back to life as a surveyor of dangerous asteroids.
The spaceplane landed this week after spending 276 days in orbit.
NASA asked commercial providers to find a way to boost Hubble’s orbit, and now Momentus Space and Astroscale have offered a solution.
The future of New Horizons hangs in the balance as NASA seeks to fundamentally change the focus of the mission.
A new tactic to fire up the lunar satellite's engines has resulted in "limited success."
Momentus Space says the recent demonstration sets it on the path to fully operational missions.
The experimental spacecraft secretly launched to space last summer, but very little has been shared about its mission, which appears to have ended.
A joint mission from the federal space agency and Rocket Lab aims to loft four cube satellites across two launches and acquire hourly data on extreme storms.
NUVIEW's satellite constellation will use LiDAR to create its 3D maps, which could prove beneficial to farmers and urban planners.
A total of 4,023 Starlink satellites are now in low Earth orbit, as SpaceX continues to build its record-setting constellation at a rapid pace.
The Luna-H Map cubesat launched on board the Artemis 1 mission in November 2022, but failed to fire its engines shortly after its delayed liftoff.
Chunks of debris, falling dust, and fire spread from SpaceX's Starship launch in April. Conservation groups say the launch never should have been allowed.
Company CEO Elon Musk said the 394-foot-tall rocket took 40 seconds to respond to the self-destruct command—an interminable amount of time for a safety feature.
NASA’s Artemis program to return humans to the lunar surface is moving at a snail’s pace. Here’s why.
We’ll also be watching the launch of NASA’s hurricane-sniffing TROPICS satellites.
JUICE is having some difficulties deploying one of its most crucial science instruments—a tool for scanning the subsurfaces of Jupiter's icy moons.
Russia had previously threatened to leave the ISS by 2024, but is now the last of NASA's partners to agree to stay aboard the station for a few more years.
The recently-launched JUICE mission is on an eight year journey to Jupiter to explore its icy moons, which the spacecraft will study for signs of habitability.
