The selection contains 5 of the largest and most terrifying disasters in the entire history of astronautics, the selection contains 5 of the largest and most terrifying disasters in the history of astronautics
Over the past two decades, scientists have found ice in many places on Mars
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Releases 3-Minute High-Resolution Video of the Martian Surface Captured by the Curiosity Rover
Looking for signs of ancient microbial life on Mars, NASA's Perseverance rover is once again preparing to collect the first of many rock core samples that will be brought back to Earth for further study
China already has its own orbiting space station, but the country's National Natural Science Foundation wants scientists to seriously consider what it will take to create a "kilometer-long super-large spacecraft."
An international team of scientists has determined the optimal time for humans to fly to Mars
Astronomers call this region a "stellar nursery"
The sunspot AR2860 is large, very active, and faces directly towards the Earth. In the active region yesterday there was a significant solar flare of the M4.7 class, the ejection from which is directed to the Earth
Astronomers have ruled out the main explanation for the cyclical nature of a particularly interesting repeating cosmic signal after new radio observations
British scientists cited the rationale that the manifestations of life outside the solar system can be looked for not only on exoplanets similar to Earth, but also on others that are very different from it
The efforts of NOAA specialists trying to make predictions of "space weather" lately resemble an attempt to predict rather than predict. According to the latest forecasts, there were no large flares on the Sun, but there were only
Researchers have created a new type of gravitational wave detector. The instrument recently recorded two rare events that could be signals of dark matter. An alternative explanation: these are signals from primordial black holes or even a manifestation of external n
A powerful radio telescope that studies a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way reveals thousands of previously unknown sources of radio signals
Astronomers at the Smithsonian Institution and Harvard (USA) have shown that the Oort Cloud contains more interstellar objects than celestial bodies originated in the solar system
Asteroid 2021 PH27 takes just 113 Earth days to circle the Sun. The newly discovered asteroid orbits the sun faster than any of its known relatives
Supermassive black holes are usually located more or less stationary in the centers of galaxies. But not all of these amazing space objects remain in place; some of them fly through galaxies like space travelers
Tiny nanoparticles of iron, unlike any natural form of this material on Earth, are ubiquitous on the surface of the Moon - and scientists are trying to understand the reason for these differences
The evidence comes from data obtained from a gamma-ray and neutron detector (GRaND) ?? aboard NASA's Dawn spacecraft
For 50 years, theoretical physicists have tried to solve the famous black hole paradox, which predicts that these cosmic monsters are much more complex than general relativity suggests. The fact is that, according to Einstein's theory
On Friday evening, residents of Quebec and Ontario witnessed a spectacular spectacle: the brightest "fireball" swept across the night sky
On the night of August 19, local residents observed a meteorite falling over the vast territory of Kanto and Kinki
Orbital mechanics for a person unfamiliar with its intricacies looks not at all intuitive. Considering the speed of spacecraft movement, even their passage at a distance of a kilometer from each other is considered potentially dangerous
Astronomers at the University of Keele (UK) have captured signals from previously unknown stars and distant galaxies for the first time while observing the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC)
In 2017, astronomers were able to conduct a detailed study of the night side of one of the most dangerous and inhospitable planets in the solar system - Venus. It turned out that the darkness of the night hides mysteries and anomalies that modern science cannot explain
Scientists at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory have discovered a previously unknown giant structure in one of the spiral arms of our Milky Way galaxy
Civilian and military researchers will explore the potential of the technology amid fears of radiation and the possibility of misfiring rays from space
A Chinese military satellite, damaged by an unknown object, is believed to be a "wreckage of a Russian missile" in the most serious orbital collision since 2009
Researchers from Israel, Italy and the USA, based on the analysis of archaeological finds, have recreated the magnetic moment of the Earth that existed in the Neolithic
Auroras heat the atmosphere of Jupiter - the largest planet in the solar system by hundreds of degrees
They speed up this process five to ten times, scientists say
It is noteworthy that the last outbreak occurred only a few years ago, and that the origin of this particular outbreak was not expected and its origin has not been established at this time
Astronomers, thanks to ground-based telescopes and the OSIRIS-REx interplanetary station, have estimated the danger of the 500-meter near-Earth asteroid Bennu for the Earth. It turned out that the highest probability of an asteroid collision with our planet is one in 2700
This week, two space probes flew around Venus at once, performing regular gravitational maneuvers to increase speed during their missions
The Curiosity rover has been studying the geology and climate of the Red Planet since 2012. All this time, it was believed that the American apparatus was studying the bottom of the ancient Martian lake
According to researchers from Rice University, stars scattered across space look different, but more similar than previously thought
The hole in zero gravity was made by a person unfamiliar with the structure of the ship, the agency's interlocutor noted
After studying the results of the analysis of atmospheric gases, astronomers said that they could not explain the mysterious fluctuations in oxygen levels in the atmosphere of the Red Planet
If Bennu crashes into Earth, it won't wipe out dinosaur-style life, but rather create a crater about 10 to 20 times the size of the asteroid, says Lindley Johnson, NASA's planetary defense officer. The area of destruction would be much larger
A new study claims that the Milky Way is home to one hundred million planets on which alien life could exist. And not simple microbial life, but complex alien life
If you are attentive enough to the sky and have looked at it during the last nights, you may have noticed the appearance of a new bright point. In truth, it is not new at all, but these days it burns unusually brightly
