NASA's Landsat 9 satellite, which was launched in 2021​ to capture images of Earth's land surface, sent back images​ of bright purple and green blooms in Carrizo Plain National Park.

The spacecraft will set off on an eight-year journey to the solar system’s largest planet, focusing on moons that could offer clues in the search for extraterrestrial life.

After years of dreaming about building rockets, Peter Beck realized that the only path to his dream job was starting his own company. Here's what happened next.

Tourists travelling into outer space isn’t a fantasy for the future—it’s happening now

As Canada celebrates its first astronaut to go to the moon, it is starting a new project that could eventually enable a Canadian to walk on the moon.

SpaceX is preparing to carry out a launch rehearsal of its next-generation Starship rocket as early as next week.

An updated version of a space safety document endorsed by more than two dozen organizations includes “rules of the road” for avoiding collisions.

Astronomers are one step closer to learning whether there is life beyond Earth, following the discovery of an exoplanet that’s able to emit a “coherent” radio signal.

The two black holes lie just 1,560 and 3,800 light-years from our planet, respectively.

Cosmologists have found new evidence for the standard model of cosmology—this time, using data on the structure of galaxy clusters. In a recent study published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, a team led by physicists at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University made detailed measurements of the X-ray emission from galaxy clusters, which revealed the distribution of matter within them. In turn, the data helped the scientists test the prevailing theory of the structure and evolution of the universe, known as Lambda-CDM.

A team of four astronauts will take humanity back to the Moon after a gap of 50 years.

Meet FLEX, a lunar vehicle that's bigger than NASA's Perseverance rover and can travel at up to 15 miles per hour

The Canadian Space Agency has four active astronauts, three of whom have never been to space. That could soon change in a big way

Scientists may have identified an ultramassive black hole 30 billion times the mass of our sun hiding in an image captured by the Hubble Space Telescope. Black holes are born when colossal stars many times the size of our sun run out of fuel, and collapse in on themselves in spectacular fashion. The resulting singularity is incredibly dense, and boasts a gravitational pull so powerful that light itself cannot escape it.

According to new study, an object that was once believed to be a radio galaxy is actually an active black hole that changed angles to aim straight at Earth. Scientists are baffled by a supermassive black hole in a far-off galaxy that has suddenly turned sharply 90 degrees to face straight toward Earth while spewing radiation at close to light speed.

One astronomer dubbed the high-intensity beam of radiation the BOAT: the Brightest of All Time.

An ultramassive black hole about 30bn times the mass of the Sun has been discovered by astronomers in the UK. Scientists at Durham University said the gargantuan black hole was one of the biggest ever found. The team described their findings, published in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, as “extremely exciting”.

If humanity is going to have a long-term presence on the Moon, it's going to need reliable communications — and Lockheed Martin thinks it can provide that link. The company has created a spinoff devoted to lunar infrastructure, Crescent Space, whose first project is a Moon-to-Earth satellite network. Parsec, as it's called, uses a constellation of small lunar satellites to provide a non-stop connection between astronauts, their equipment and the people back home. The system will also provide navigation help.

"Before we can use it on people, everything needs to be adjusted. However, I believe that a feasible timetable is 10 years." Within ten years, a scholar with the European Space Agency (ESA) believes that it will be possible to conduct the first hibernation experiments on humans.
