Horizontal structures, up to 10 light years in length, appear to point in direction of galaxy’s black hole

At 6,000 miles high, the plume is 20 times as wide as the tiny ice-covered moon.

The European Space Agency (ESA) has released a stunning photo of Earth from its latest satellite imager that captures weather conditions in never-before-seen detail.

A water vapour plume from Saturn’s moon Enceladus spanning more than 9600 kilometres — long enough to stretch across the Eurasian continent from Ireland to Japan — has been detected by researchers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope. Not only is this the first time such water ejection has been seen over such an expansive distance, but Webb is also giving scientists a direct look, for the first time, at how this emission feeds the water supply for the entire system of Saturn and its rings.

The 17 travelers hail from five different countries.

The announcement formalized a timeline that Chinese scientists have set out before, as the United States and China ramp up competition in space.

The Space Launch System's booster and engine are now projected to cost at least $13.1 billion over 25 years.

"It is gratifying to see folks coming around."

Virgin Galactic is preparing to launch its first spaceflight in nearly two years on Thursday, as the space tourism company aims to pass a final test before flying commercial passengers. Called Unity 25, the mission represents the company’s fifth spaceflight to date and is launching out of Spaceport America in New Mexico.

Scientists are testing ways to construct buildings on Mars and the moon without hauling materials from Earth. One possible solution: 3D printed melted regolith.

Tunnels deep underground in North Yorkshire are providing a unique opportunity to study how humans might be able to live and operate on the

Solitude is not a curse—it urges us to explore the mysteries of our galaxy and beyond.

"I think it would be pretty ambitious... but really great if we could pull it off."

A new study led by physicist Sascha Kempf at the University of Colorado Boulder has delivered the strongest evidence yet that Saturn's rings are remarkably young—potentially answering a question that has boggled scientists for well over a century.

Jed McCaleb, who founded the defunct bitcoin exchange Mt. Gox, has announced he's planning to launch the world's first private space station.

NASA's TESS spacecraft found the two planets, which are slightly larger than Earth.

Their biggest obstacle is a thick layer of haze that blankets the planet, shielding it from the probing eyes of space telescopes and stymying efforts to study its atmosphere. But now, NASA's new JWST has solved that issue. The telescope's infrared technology allows it to see planetary objects and fe

An experimental Chinese spacecraft returned to Earth on Monday after staying in orbit for 276 days, China's state media reported, completing a landmark mission to test the country's reusable space technologies.

Reusable uncrewed vehicle lands after spending 276 days in orbit, marking an ‘important breakthrough’.

A recent analysis from NASA's Voyage spacecraft has led scientists to conclude that four of Uranus' largest moons contain water. These moons are believed to have an ocean layer that exists between the icy crust and core, and they could be miles deep. Uranus has at least 27 moons, five of which were large: Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, Oberon, and Miranda. According to recent peer-reviewed study from NASA scientists, the four largest are believed to have the ability to retain heat caused by radioactive decay.
