official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Rohit Goeptar was born into a poor family in Suriname, South America, the kind where both parents work three jobs and they still can only provide food and shelter for their family. At around age six, his family moved to California to start a new life. Only two years later, heContinue reading “From Suriname to Space: Rohit Goeptar’s Shares his Journey to NASA”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY On a bleak stretch of the Colorado Desert in Southern California, a compact four-wheeled rover recently trundled about 16 miles (26 kilometers) with minimal intervention from the team of engineers trailing it. Called ERNEST (Exploration Rover for Navigating Extreme Sloped Terrain), this prototype is being used by NASA to advanceContinue reading “NASA Testing Advanced Capabilities for Moon, Mars Rovers”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Even small asteroids lead complex lives. During its flyby of the asteroid Donaldjohanson last year, NASA’s Lucy spacecraft revealed the asteroid to be a wobbly, peanut-shaped body that has undergone a lot of activity in its relatively short history. Formed as fragments coalesced after a violent collision 155 million years ago, theContinue reading “NASA’s Lucy Reveals Wobbling, Peanut-Shaped Asteroid”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY This image, captured by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope and released on June 5, 2026, shows just a small portion of one of the Orion Molecular Clouds, a long and massive filament of cold gas and dust beyond the Orion Nebula. Every stage of star formation — from the youngestContinue reading “Stages of Star Formation”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY This NASA Hubble Space Telescope image features a galaxy cluster, called CL0016+1609 or MACS J0018.5+1626, that is very bright at X-ray wavelengths and is one of the most extensively studied clusters at X-ray and radio wavelengths. The X-ray observations of this cluster revealed that it is two clusters merging alongContinue reading “Hubble Glimpses Merging Galaxy Clusters”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Satellite observations of sea surface height indicated that the 2026 event continued to strengthen in early June.

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY NASA Wednesday announced a new public‑private partnership to advance Mars science by combining the agency’s scientific leadership with commercial innovation. Under this model, NASA will provide the Aeolus atmospheric‑science instrument payload suite, while Relativity Space supplies the spacecraft, rocket, and cruise operations necessary to deliver the instruments to Mars. ThisContinue reading “NASA Announces Public-Private Partnership to Advance Mars Science”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Some stars have planets. Others are orbited by brown dwarfs, balls of gas too massive to be planets, but too low-mass to be stars. Astronomers love these brown dwarf-star pairs because being paired with a star helps reveal a brown dwarf’s age. Ages of astronomical objects are often hard toContinue reading “Search for Hidden Cosmic Companions in Sun’s Backyard”

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Looking somewhat like a swarm of bees returning to their hive, this NASA Hubble Space Telescope image released on June 12, 2026, features the galaxy cluster MACS0329-0211. Galaxy clusters like MACS0329-0211 are important signposts in the story of how the structure of the universe evolved, and are the ultimate telescopic lenses, placingContinue reading “Hubble Sees Swarm of Galaxies”
