Scientists have discovered a hitherto unknown space molecule while investigating a relatively nearby region of intense star birth, a cosmic spot about 5,550 light-years away. It’s part of the Cat’s Paw Nebula, also known as NGC 6334. The team, led by Zachary Fried, a graduate student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), examined a section […]

To write that the Hubble Space Telescope is legendary would be an understatement. In the 34 years this telescope has been in orbit, it has produced breathtaking images of the cosmos. One that sticks out, for instance, is the iconic Hubble Ultra-Deep Field, aka the deepest visible-light view of our universe ever created. Thanks to

Crew members aboard China’s space station have successfully completed repairs after a debris strike caused a partial power failure at the facility, officials of the China Manned Space Agency (CMSA) revealed at a press conference on Wednesday. The space junk struck power cables linked to the core module’s solar wings and was repaired by taikonauts

The U.S. Space Force is testing a new ground-based satellite jamming weapon to help keep U.S. military personnel safe from potential “space-enabled” attacks. The tests were conducted by Space Training and Readiness Command, or STARCOM, which is responsible for educating and training U.S. Space Force personnel. The satellite jammer is known as the Remote Modular

The Smart Lander for Investigating Moon (SLIM) has survived its third week-long night on the moon. This is despite the fact the Japanese lunar lander wasn’t designed to withstand even one blisteringly cold night on the moon, during which temperatures dropped as low as minus 274 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 170 degrees Celsius). The Japan Aerospace

The dotted white streak cutting across this photo of a faraway galaxy might seem like a nuisance for astronomers, but it’s actually the mark of a previously undiscovered asteroid. The image, snapped by the Hubble Space Telescope from its decades-long perch in low Earth orbit, is one of many that have been photobombed by asteroids

Astronomers believe they have found a rare, massive flare that erupted from an extremely magnetic dead star, or magnetar, that was bright enough to illuminate an entire galaxy. If true, the discovery would represent the first time gamma rays from a “recently deceased” neutron star erupting outside the Milky Way have been seen. The flare

The world’s most advanced solar sail spacecraft began its odyssey today at 23:32 GMT as it lifted off atop a Rocket Lab Electron launcher from Launch Complex 1 in Mahia, New Zealand. It was one of two payloads on the Beginning Of The Swarm mission. Though it’s only the size of a toaster, NASA’s Advanced

SpaceX notched yet another rocket-reuse milestone this evening (April 23). A Falcon 9 rocket topped with 23 of SpaceX’s Starlink internet satellites lifted off from Florida’s Cape Canaveral Space Force Station today at 6:17 p.m. EDT (2217 GMT). The Falcon 9’s first stage came back to Earth for a vertical landing about 8.5 minutes after
