official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY In December 2023, scientists looking at Mars data stumbled across something completely unexpected — observations of an atmospheric effect never before seen in the Red Planet’s atmosphere. Using instruments aboard NASA’s MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution) mission, scientists identified a phenomenon known to occur in Earth’s magnetosphere, where chargedContinue reading “NASA’s MAVEN Makes 1st Discovery of Atmospheric Effect at Mars”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY The NASA-funded Translational Research Institute for Space Health (TRISH) has selected two early‑career scientists for its next class of postdoctoral fellows. The new fellows will begin their projects in May, focusing on space food systems and astronaut eye health. The TRISH Postdoctoral Fellowship Program supports independent research that advances biomedical,Continue reading “NASA Selects Next Class of Space Health Postdoctoral Fellows”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY The heart of galaxy M77 shines brightly in this May 7, 2026, image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. The intense glow is due to gas being pulled by the strong gravity of the central black hole into a tight and rapid orbit around it. The motion of the gasContinue reading “Beacon of Light”

The SpaceX spacecraft,Continue reading “NASA Science, Cargo Launch on 34th SpaceX Resupply Mission to Station”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY After NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover drilled a sample from this rock on April 25, 2026, it withdrew its robotic arm and pulled the entire rock off the surface with it. Engineers spent several days repositioning the arm and vibrating the drill to try and get the rock loose. When itContinue reading “Curiosity Shakes Loose a Pesky Rock”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY This NASA Hubble Space Telescope image reveals an enigmatic galaxy with a bright center and a face that hints at spiral structure, yet it holds no obvious spiral arms. Reddish-brown clumps and filaments of dust partially obscure the galaxy’s full face, while red, blue, and orange light from distant galaxiesContinue reading “Hubble Sights Galaxy in Transition”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY A recent analysis revealed where artificial light at night has intensified, as well as where it has diminished.

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY On Thursday, NASA issued a Request for Proposal (RFP), seeking industry collaboration for the Mars Telecommunications Network. Reliable, high bandwidth communications is necessary to relay science data, high-definition imagery, and critical information during Mars missions. The network will use high-performance Mars telecommunications orbiters at the Red Planet to support futureContinue reading “NASA Draws on Industry for Mars Telecommunications Network”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY NASA is collaborating with Eta Space of Rockledge, Florida, on an in‑orbit technology demonstration to advance a key capability for future deep space missions. The Liquid Oxygen Flight Demonstration, or LOXSAT, will test cryogenic fluid management technologies necessary for creating in-space propellant depots, essentially gas stations in space, that couldContinue reading “NASA, Industry Prepare Cryogenic Fuel Technology Demo”
