NASA Finds a Crucial Life-Building Chemical on Jupiter’s Moon
Scientists studying archival Galileo spacecraft data have identified ammonia-bearing compounds on Europa for the first time. The ammonia appears along surface cracks, indicating recent transport from the moon’s subsurface ocean. Because ammonia contains nitrogen and degrades quickly under radiation, its presence strengthens Europa’s status as a...

SPHEREx Space Telescope to Map Cosmos in Infrared Light, Launching in February 2025
Set to launch in February 2025, NASA’s SPHEREx mission will provide a comprehensive map of the universe in infrared light. The telescope will examine 450 million galaxies and 100 million stars, shedding light on the universe’s formation, early conditions after the Big Bang, and the presence of water in planetary systems. SPHEREx will survey the...

NASA Rockets Set to Journey Through Flickering, Disappearing Auroras
NASA is set to launch two groundbreaking rocket missions in January 2025 to unravel the mysteries of auroras. The GIRAFF mission will study fast-pulsating and flickering auroras, while the Black and Diffuse Aurora Science Surveyor mission will focus on dark auroral patches or "black auroras." By using advanced instruments to measure electron activi...

NASA to Reportedly Launch an 'Artificial Star' Satellite to Help Astronomers Study the Cosmos
NASA's groundbreaking Landolt Space Mission will revolutionize astronomy by launching an artificial star into Earth's orbit by 2029. This satellite, about the size of a loaf of bread, will enhance the precision of ground-based telescopes, providing astronomers with more accurate measurements of celestial objects. Equipped with eight lasers, the sat...
