As a rocket revolution sets the stage for astronauts to explore Mars, advances in bioengineering could help them survive the ...

Nearly 70 years after the launch of the first satellite, we still have more questions than answers about space. But a team of Berkeley researchers is on a mission to change this with a proposal to ...

Humans might be smart enough to accomplish interplanetary life within the next 200 years, scientists said this week. A team of eight researchers published a new study in the preprint journal Arxiv and ...

Samples reveal evidence of changes experienced by the surface of asteroid Ryugu, some probably due to micrometeoroid bombardment. Samples reveal evidence of changes experienced by the surface of ...

Blue Origin is opening up about some of its latest interplanetary work. Last week, the Washington company announced two science initiatives supporting humanity’s efforts to push outward into the ...

The space agency's Magnetospheric Multiscale mission, or MMS, first measured interplanetary shocks in 2019 thanks to its suite of highly precise analytical tools mounted on four individual spacecraft ...

NASA has selected two proposals to demonstrate small satellite technologies to improve science observations in deep space, which could help NASA develop better models to predict space weather events ...

Complicated networks of magnetic fields power the sun’s atmosphere and create both the beautiful structures and violent explosions that scientists study. Active regions, anchored in sunspots, are ...
