    ULA Conducts 1st Test-Fire of New Vulcan Centaur Rocket

    News: The Vulcan Centaur launch schedule proceeded with the necessary test. The next-generation Vulcan Centaur rocket from United Launch Alliance (ULA) recently made a significant advancement toward its initial launch. If you are wondering what is the Vulcan Centaur’s launch date, then it is recently launched on the evening of June 7. As we all know […]

    NASA Selects Blue Origin as Second Artemis Lunar Lander Provider

    NASA has chosen Blue Origin from Kent, Washington to create a human landing system for their Artemis V mission to the Moon. NASA’s Artemis mission is going to explore more of the Moon than ever before! This will help us discover new things about the Moon and prepare for future missions to Mars. What role […]

    Hubble Sets Out on Mission to Discover an Intermediate-sized Black Hole

    Astronomers using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope have discovered what they believe to be some of the greatest evidence yet for the presence of a rare type of intermediate-sized black hole lurking in the heart of the nearest globular star cluster to Earth, about 6,000 light-years distant. What are the formation, distribution, and rarity of intermediate-mass […]

    LP 791-18 d: Earth-size Exoplanet Unveils Volcanic Activity Beyond Our Solar System

    Astronomers have identified an Earth-size exoplanet, or globe outside our solar system, that may be covered in volcanoes. The planet, known as LP 791-18 d, may have volcanic outbursts as frequently as Jupiter’s moon Io, our solar system’s most volcanically active body. NASA’s TESS, Spitzer Space Telescope, and an array of ground-based observatories were used […]

    AIAA honors NASA’s DART and James Webb with 2023 Premier Awards

    The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) designated NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope and Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) missions and contractors as three of the AIAA Premier Awards recipients for 2023. The awards honor those in the aerospace industry that AIAA considers to be the most influential and inspiring. “We congratulate both the […]

    Sun Storm May Have Sparked Life on Earth

    Sun Storms and Life’s Origins: A new study proposes that early building blocks of life on Earth could have resulted from solar eruptions. Amino acids and carboxylic acids, the building blocks of proteins and organic life on Earth, can be formed when solar particles collide with gases in the early Earth’s atmosphere, as demonstrated by […]

    InSight Lander Seismic Breakthrough: Unlocking Mars’ Core Secrets

    NASA deactivated its InSight lander in December, but its seismometer data will be studied for decades. Scientists have discovered that Mars‘ liquid iron core is thinner and denser than previously believed by analyzing seismic waves the device picked up during two temblors in 2021. A report published on April 24 in the Proceedings of the […]

    Solar Storm and Advancement with AI: Exploring the Dark Side of the Sun

    Have you ever heard of a solar storm? These fascinating and dangerous phenomena occur when the Sun releases a burst of energy in the form of charged particles and electromagnetic radiation into space, which can cause geomagnetic storms on Earth. However, if you are wondering what would happen if a solar storm were to hit […]

    Potential Gamma-Ray Burst that Occurs Once Every 10,000 Year is Under Research by NASA!

    A gamma-ray burst  Gamma-Ray Burst emitted the BOAT, or “brightest of all time,” radiation pulse on October 9, 2022. This rare occurrence has piqued the interest of NASA scientists who have launched missions to study it. The burst was so powerful that it overwhelmed most gamma-ray instruments in space, making it challenging to record the […]

    The NASA Roman simulations reveal millions of galaxies!

    A massive simulated survey has been developed by scientists, which provides insight into what can be anticipated from the future observations of the Nancy Grace  Roman simulations Space Telescope. Even though this virtual version is only a bit of the actual survey that will take place, it comprises an enormous number of 33 million galaxies and […]
