NASA’s ESCAPADE Mission to Study Space Weather Between Earth and Mars
NASA’s ESCAPADE mission will send two identical orbiters to Mars to study how solar wind and space weather strip away the planet’s atmosphere. Launching in 2025 and arriving in 2027, the twin spacecraft will measure solar wind conditions and Mars’s atmospheric response simultaneously, helping scientists understand how the Red Planet lost its ...

NASA Shares Stunning Image Of Iris Nebula, A Blue And Pink "Flower" In Space
The Iris Nebula holds special significance for scientists because of its unique colours.

Researchers Suggest Saturn's Titan Moon Formed in a Single High-Energy Impact Event
New research suggests Saturn’s largest moon Titan and its iconic rings may share a violent origin. Simulations indicate Titan formed after a massive collision between two moons about 100 to 200 million years ago, resurfacing Titan and altering its orbit. The resulting instability likely shattered smaller moons, sending icy debris inward to create...

NASA’s Hubble Captures Rare Pre-Planetary Transformation as Twin Beams of Light Pierce the Cosmic Dust
A new Hubble image reveals twin beams blasting from a hidden dying star inside the Egg Nebula, a rare pre-planetary phase. The symmetrical arcs and glowing lobes show how Sun-like stars shed dust and gas before forming planetary nebulae, offering scientists a rare glimpse into stellar evolution.

NASA Juno Mission Uncovers Subtle Geometric Shifts That Challenge Existing Models of the Jovian Interior
Scientists have refined Jupiter’s size and shape using modern radio signal observations, finding the giant planet slightly smaller and more flattened than earlier estimates. Though the difference is only a few kilometres, researchers say it greatly improves models of Jupiter’s interior, gravity, and atmospheric structure, offering deeper insigh...

NASA Scientists Observe 'Dramatic' Increase In Brightness Of Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS
SPHEREx detected a mix of molecules streaming off the comet, including water ice, carbon dioxide, and rocky material.

AI Uses NASA Images To Locate Luna 9, Historic Soviet Spacecraft Missing Since 1966
While the findings are promising, they are not yet definitive proof of Luna 9's location.

Scientists Uncover "Rocket Storms" Speeding Up Water Loss on Mars
This finding suggests that Mars has been losing water year-round for billions of years, rather than just during specific seasons.

SPHEREx Captures Dramatic Outburst of Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS
NASA’s SPHEREx telescope captured a dramatic outburst from interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS after its close solar flyby in October 2025. Infrared observations in December revealed water vapor, carbon dioxide, methanol, methane, and cyanide erupting from the comet’s nucleus. Scientists say the chemical makeup suggests formation in a relatively warm e...

Venus May Hide a Vast Underground Tunnel Formed by Ancient Volcanic Eruptions, Scientists Say
Scientists analysing NASA’s Magellan radar data have identified signs of a vast underground lava tunnel on Venus. If confirmed, it would be only the second such structure found on the planet, challenging the belief that Venus is geologically inactive and opening new possibilities for studying its volcanic past.
