Axiom 4 Mission Crew Settles Down at ISS, Begins Conducting Biomedical Research
Crews aboard the ISS carried out crucial biomedical research focused on immunity and muscle function in space. JAXA’s Takuya Onishi and the Ax-4 astronauts contributed to ongoing health studies, while engineers completed maintenance tasks and offloaded cargo from Progress 92. These activities mark another step forward in preparing humans for long...

New Interstellar Object 3I/ATLAS Could Reveal Secrets of Distant Worlds
Astronomers have confirmed the arrival of 3I/ATLAS, only the third interstellar object ever spotted in our solar system. First seen on July 1, 2025, by the ATLAS survey team in Chile, it was quickly identified by its unusual hyperbolic orbit and comet-like tail. Larger and brighter than either 1I/ʻOumuamua or 2I/Borisov, 3I/ATLAS is estimated to b...

Captain 'Shux', Halfway Through His Space Journey, Has Travelled 5 Million km
After week in space, Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla finally got some down time and he managed to have a chat with his family in Lucknow and also held an interaction with students at his alma mater the City Montessori School.

Mars Dust Devils May Spark Lightning, Might Pose Risks to Rovers: Study
A new computer-modeling study reveals that dust devils on Mars—swirling columns of dust and air—may become electrically charged enough to spark lightning-like discharges. Led by researcher Varun Sheel, the study simulates how dry Martian conditions and frictional collisions between dust grains can generate strong electric fields inside these vo...

NASA's Perseverance Grinds Into ‘Weird’ Martian Rock to Uncover Signs of Ancient Habitability
NASA’s Perseverance rover is grinding into a strange Martian rock called Kenmore to study its inner makeup and potential for preserving signs of ancient life. The rock yielded clay and feldspar and, for the first time, manganese hydroxide, all key indicators of water-related processes and possible habitability on early Mars.

New Study Suggests Two Meteorites May Be from Mercury, Offering Rare Scientific Insight
A new study raises the possibility that two meteorites may have originated from Mercury, a first if proven true. Ksar Ghilane 022 and NWA 15915 share notable traits with Mercury’s surface minerals, yet also present differences that complicate a clear link.

Dead NASA Satellite Relay 2 May Have Caused Mysterious 2024 Radio Burst
In June 2024, a mysterious 30-nanosecond radio burst baffled scientists — until they traced it back to a surprising source: Relay 2, a NASA satellite offline since 1967. Researchers believe the signal could have been triggered either by a micrometeorite impact or an electrostatic discharge. The discovery, detailed in a new preprint study, highlig...

Global Warming Clouds Changes Are Making Earth More Even Hotter: Study
At any given time, about two-thirds of Earth's surface is covered by clouds. Overall, they make the planet much cooler than it would be without them.

'City-Killer' Asteroid May Hit Moon, Hurl Deadly Debris Toward Earth
Asteroid 2024 YR4 might collide with the Moon in 2031, with a 4.3% chance of impact, according to NASA's updated calculations.

NASA Study Reveals Correlation Between Earth’s Magnetic Field and Atmospheric Oxygen
According to NASA, changes in Earth’s magnetic field 540 million years ago corresponded with atmospheric oxygen shifts. This finding suggests that Earth’s deep interior may impact surface habitability. Scientists plan further research to trace these connections and their role in life’s origin.

NASA Chandra Spots Distant X-Ray Jet; Telescope Faces Major Budget Cuts
NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory has detected a massive X-ray jet from quasar J1610+1811, 11.6 billion light-years away. The jet travels at nearly the speed of light, illuminating black hole behavior during the universe’s early era. However, Chandra now faces potential defunding under NASA’s proposed budget. Astronomers warn that cutting Chan...

NASA Launching Rockets To Probe 'Mysterious' Clouds In Ionosphere
Scientists are hoping to understand the Sporadic-E layers that form in the lower portions of ionosphere, causing radio signals to reflect to Earth.

NASA Study Confirms Solar Storms Prematurely Ended Starlink Satellite's Lifespan
A recent study, backed by NASA, reveals that solar storms are causing Starlink satellites to reenter Earth's atmosphere much faster than anticipated. Analysing data from hundreds of Starlink deorbit events between 2020 and 2024, researchers found that heightened geomagnetic activity drastically increases atmospheric drag, leading to quicker orbital...

Perseverance Rover Studies Ancient Martian Rocks at Fallbreen and Forlandet Quadrangle
NASA's Perseverance rover reached new ground on June 7, 2025, exploring ancient Martian terrain at Fallbreen and moving into the Forlandet quadrangle near Jezero Crater. This region may contain Mars' oldest rocks, offering key insights into the planet’s early geology. The mission also honors Earth's own exploration history by naming Martian sites...
