Mars Once Had Changing Lakes: NASA Reveals Signs Of Life-Friendly Water Phases In Jezero Crater
As Mars's atmosphere changed, Jezero's water gradually became less acidic and more balanced.

Webb Finds Phosphorus-Bearing Gas in an Ancient Brown Dwarf
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has detected phosphine (PH₃) in the atmosphere of the ancient brown dwarf Wolf 1130C, about 54 light-years away in Cygnus. This marks the first confirmed detection of a phosphorus-bearing gas in such a metal-poor object. The finding surprises astronomers, as phosphine was previously undetected in similar brown ...

NASA's Astronomers Reveal Red Giant Stars May Destroy Their Own Planets
This extreme expansion poses a serious threat to nearby planets. For example, when the Sun becomes a red giant in about 5 billion years, it will likely swallow Mercury and Venus.

NASA’s ESCAPADE Mission Will Send Twin Probes to Uncover Mars’s Atmospheric Secrets
NASA’s ESCAPADE mission will launch twin mini-satellites, Blue and Gold, to Mars aboard Blue Origin’s New Glenn. The probes will study how solar wind stripped away Mars’s atmosphere and water, helping scientists understand the Red Planet’s lost climate and its transformation into the dry world we see today.

Bad Weather Delays Blue Origin’s New Glenn Launch of NASA’s Mars Mission
Blue Origin’s New Glenn launch was postponed on November 9, 2025, because of heavy clouds at Cape Canaveral. The rocket was carrying NASA’s twin ESCAPADE orbiters to study Mars’s atmosphere. The delay came a day before the FAA’s new daytime launch ban during a federal shutdown. The next attempt is scheduled for November 12.

Scientists Just Solved the Mystery of the Moon’s Lopsided Dust Halo
Scientists have solved why the Moon’s dust cloud is uneven: heat. Using computer models, researchers found that meteor impacts on the Moon’s sunlit surface fling 6–8% more dust into space than on the cold night side, creating a lopsided halo. NASA warns this dust could threaten future landers and astronauts.

China’s Tianwen-1 Captures Rare Interstellar Comet From Orbit Around Mars
China’s Tianwen-1 Mars mission achieved a new milestone by photographing interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, the third such object ever recorded. This breakthrough highlights China’s growing strength in planetary science, deep-space imaging, and interstellar observation, offering scientists an unprecedented look at materials beyond our solar syste

China and NASA Coordinate to Avoid Satellite Collision for the First Time
China’s CNSA made history by alerting NASA to a possible satellite collision—marking the first instance of Beijing warning Washington in orbit. With Earth’s orbits growing crowded from megaconstellations like Starlink and Guowang, the event signals a new phase of cooperation in global space traffic control and shared responsibility for orbita...

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope Telescope Challenges Old Theories on Mini-Neptune Worlds
New models suggest mini-Neptunes—planets smaller than Neptune with thick gas envelopes—may have solid rocky surfaces instead of molten magma. Data from NASA’s JWST revealed high-pressure atmospheres capable of compressing molten rock into solid crusts. This discovery challenges earlier assumptions and offers key insights into exoplanet compos...
