official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Testing new aerospace concepts in flight remains one of NASA’s most effective ways to advance knowledge and reduce risk. The Dale Reed Subscale Flight Research Laboratory at NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center in Edwards, California, supports this mission by using small, remotely piloted and autonomous aircraft as cost‑effective platforms toContinue reading “NASA Uses Subscale Aircraft to Accelerate Flight Innovation”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY A meteorite recovered immediately upon its fall to Earth on July 16, 2024, is helping NASA scientists uncover new clues about ancient water, the chemical evolution of primitive asteroids, and the ingredients that may have helped make life possible throughout the early solar system.

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Description Billions of years ago, an hours-long Martian sandstorm blew so intensely that sand ripples began to climb upon one another as they moved across the surface. These layers of sediment eventually hardened into the multilayered rocks seen in this image, which was taken by NASA’s Curiosity rover on Dec.Continue reading “Curiosity Finds Evidence of an Ancient Sandstorm”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Before Artemis astronauts land on the Moon’s surface in 2028, NASA will conduct the Artemis III demonstration mission in 2027, allowing teams on Earth and in orbit to practice rendezvous and docking operations between commercial human landing systems and the Orion spacecraft. Data from that mission, along with future uncrewedContinue reading “How NASA’s Artemis III Lander Test Will Pave Way for Moon Landings”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY NASA astronaut candidate Anna Menon and her children watch as a Soyuz rocket launches to the International Space Station with NASA astronaut Anil Menon and Roscosmos cosmonauts Pyotr Dubrov and Anna Kikina, Tuesday, July 14, 2026, at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. The trio lifted off for the Soyuz MS-29Continue reading “Anil Menon Launches to Space Station”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Description This orbital map shows the path NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover took to get to a location the science team has dubbed the “Broom Point member,” a sequence of layered bedrock likely more than 3.9 billion years old. As planned, the rover landed inside Jezero Crater on Feb. 18, 2021. ItContinue reading “Perseverance’s Trip to ‘Broom Point’”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Description This view looking back up at the outside lip of the 490-foot-tall (150-meter-tall) rim of Jezero Crater was taken by the Mastcam-Z instrument aboard NASA’s Perseverance on May 15, 2025, the 1,505th day, or sol, of the rover’s mission to Mars.   The bright-colored rocks exposed across the slope, running from middleContinue reading “NASA’s Perseverance Rover Provides Sweeping View of Broom Point”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover has uncovered evidence that a 245-foot-thick (75-meter-thick) stack of ancient rock on the rim of Jezero Crater was built by repeated asteroid impacts. Referred to as the “Broom Point member” by the rover’s science team, this sequence of layered bedrock is likely more than 3.9 billionContinue reading “NASA’s Perseverance Rover Reads Record of Ancient Mars Impacts”
