Just over a year after Japan’s Hayabusa2 mission returned the first subsurface sample of an asteroid to Earth, scientists have determined that the near-Earth asteroid Ryugu is a pristine remnant from the formation of our solar system. This was the first material to be returned to Earth from a carbon-rich asteroid. These asteroids can reveal […]...Read More
Scientists believe Venus could be harbouring alien lifeforms. The planet, which sits a casual 47 million kilometres from us in our solar system, has ammonia in its upper atmosphere. Researchers have reportedly been fixated on why Venus’ atmosphere contains the combination of hydrogen and nitrogen ever since it was discovered back in the 1970s. Now […]...Read More
Sixty years after NASA set the goal, and three years after its Parker Solar Probe launched, the spacecraft has become the first to “touch the sun.” The Parker Solar Probe has successfully flown through the sun’s corona, or upper atmosphere, to sample particles and our star’s magnetic fields. “Parker Solar Probe ‘touching the Sun’ is […]...Read More

An astronaut’s eyes can change during spaceflights that last six months or more. That could be a problem for future planned missions. After decades of research, scientists may have a seemingly unlikely solution: a sleeping bag, developed in conjunction with REI, that pulls fluids away from the brain. A concern that has emerged regarding astronauts […]...Read More
A rover that landed on the far side of the moon has been sent to investigate a peculiar object on its visible horizon.

It’s the first time astronomers have spotted two supermassive black holes so close to one another and they’ve said they will eventually merge into one colossal cosmic abyss. Black holes, considered […]...Read More
The DART mission, or the Double Asteroid Redirection Test, will liftoff aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. But the true test for this asteroid deflection technology will come in September 2022, when the spacecraft reaches its destination, to see how it impacts the motion of a near-Earth asteroid […]...Read More
