AI Takes the Wheel as Perseverance Rover Navigates Mars on Its Own
NASA’s Perseverance rover has achieved a major milestone by navigating Martian terrain using artificial intelligence alone. In December 2025, AI-generated routes guided the rover safely across Jezero Crater, proving that autonomous navigation can dramatically speed up exploration and increase scientific returns on future planetary missions.

NASA Tracks Newly Discovered Bus-Sized Asteroid as It Flies Past Earth
A newly discovered asteroid, 2025 QV5, about the size of a school bus, will safely pass Earth today at a distance of 500,000 miles, roughly twice as far as the moon. NASA’s JPL notes it will not return this close again until September 2125. Scientists are tracking its path to refine orbital predictions and future flybys.

NASA and ISRO to Launch Joint-Mission NISAR Earth Monitoring Satellite on July 30
NASA and ISRO’s NISAR satellite is set to launch on July 30 from India’s Satish Dhawan Space Centre. The mission will use dual-frequency radar (L-band and S-band) to scan nearly all of Earth’s land and ice surfaces every 12 days. Developed by NASA’s JPL and ISRO’s Space Applications Centre, NISAR is the first satellite to carry both radar...

NASA and ISRO Prepare to Launch NISAR Earth-Mapping Satellite
NASA and India’s ISRO are set to launch NISAR, a first-of-its-kind Earth-observing satellite equipped with advanced dual-band radar. Scheduled to lift off no earlier than late July 2025 from Sriharikota, India, NISAR will map nearly all of Earth’s land and ice every 12 days, capturing surface changes with centimeter-level precision. Its L-band ...

NASA’s Perseverance Captures Deimos Before Dawn in Striking Martian Sky Image
NASA’s Perseverance rover captured a rare pre-dawn image of Mars’ moon Deimos on Sol 1433, stitching together 16 long-exposure shots into a 52-second composition. Despite image noise and cosmic interference, the photo reveals Deimos, stars like Regulus and Algieba, and Martian sky conditions, highlighting the rover’s expanding role in celesti...
