NASA’s ESCAPADE mission will launch twin satellites to orbit Mars and study how solar wind interacts with the planet’s magnetic field and atmosphere.

NASA has selected two new Earth observation missions namely STRIVE and EDGE to better understand changes in the atmosphere, ice sheets and ecosystems. These satellites are expected to launch no ...

For years now, NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has had its fair share of brushes with death. The groundbreaking observatory launched into low-Earth orbit 36 years ago, and it’s ...

Earth’s oxygen-rich atmosphere, the very thing that allows complex life to exist, may not last forever. Coupled ...

NASA's Psyche has set a new benchmark for space communications. In December 2024, the spacecraft successfully beamed an infrared laser message back to Earth from a mind-boggling distance of 494 ...

NASA is facing a race against time to save its 21-year-old spacecraft, the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory, which has been on a critical mission to study some of the most powerful explosions in the ...

When we look up at the night sky and see a satellite glide past, we might not consider climate change or the ozone layer. Space may feel separate from the environmental systems that sustain life on ...

NASA’s ESCAPADE mission studies how solar wind removed Mars’ atmosphere, using twin spacecraft to measure atmospheric escape, magnetosphere changes, and space weather impacts.

On Jan. 31, 1958, Explorer 1 became the first satellite launched by the United States. Its primary science instrument, a ...

(NEW YORK) — Mars is a cold, dry, desert-like planet. But billions of years ago, scientific evidence suggests that it had a thick atmosphere, which kept it warm enough to support flowing water on its ...

NASA’s GNEISS rockets deliver a CT-like 3D look at Auroral electricity, revealing hidden currents that shape space weather and satellites.
