Elon Musk Calls Acting NASA Chief "Dummy" Amid Spat Over Moon Mission
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk lashed out at NASA's acting administrator on Tuesday after the space agency chief invited other companies to enter the race to help get humans back on the Moon.

NASA and ESA Trace Mysterious Lunar Flashes to Meteors and Gas Leaks
Transient Lunar Phenomena are mysterious bursts and glows observed on the Moon, lasting from milliseconds to hours. NASA and ESA research show that these events often result from meteoroid impacts, radon gas outgassing, and dust charged by solar wind, illuminating the Moon’s dynamic surface in surprising ways.

SpaceX May Miss First Crewed Moon Landing as NASA Reopens Artemis Bid
NASA reopened its $2.9 billion Artemis 3 lunar lander contract as SpaceX’s Starship delays threaten to push the crewed Moon landing to 2028. Administrator Sean Duffy expressed concern, while Blue Origin reenters the race, promising to deliver faster progress toward humanity’s next lunar return.

NASA To Open Moon Mission Contract To Bezos's Blue Origin. Musk Denies
NASA acting said that the need for competition and innovation was needed to outpace China in the race to the Moon, while Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk swiftly dismissed the move, asserting that its Starship will dominate the mission.

NASA Experiment Shows Martian Ice Could Preserve Signs of Ancient Life
A NASA study suggests that traces of ancient life could be locked in Martian ice. Lab tests freezing bacteria under Mars-like radiation revealed amino acids can persist for tens of millions of years. Researchers say pure ice offers protection, making Mars’ frozen regions ideal for searching preserved biomolecules.

NASA Confirms Brightening Comet SWAN Could Be Visible With Binoculars: When and Where to See It
Comet SWAN (C/2025 R2), discovered via NASA’s SOHO spacecraft, is rapidly brightening as it nears its October 20–21 Earth flyby. Skywatchers should look to the western horizon after sunset to spot its vivid green coma and tail — possibly visible to the naked eye in dark conditions.

Vast Space to Launch Haven-1, the World’s First Private Space Station in 2026
Vast Space’s Haven-1, a single-module orbital lab, will launch in 2026 via SpaceX’s Falcon 9. Designed for four astronauts on short missions, it features life-support systems tested with NASA and a domed observation window, marking a milestone in private space habitats.

Aliens Got "Bored" So Stopped Trying To Contact Humans, Claims Scientist
The idea is based on the Fermi Paradox, which questions why we haven't yet detected signs of intelligent extraterrestrial life.

Satellites Capture Record-Breaking 20-Metre Waves Crossing Entire Oceans
ESA satellites have recorded the world’s largest ocean swells — nearly 20 meters high — generated by Storm Eddie in the North Pacific. These giant waves carried storm energy over 24,000 kilometers, reaching distant coasts and proving that ocean swells can transport immense power across the globe even when storms stay offshore.

SpaceX Launches 21 Satellites With Second Falcon 9 Launch Of The Year
SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket successfully launched 21 satellites for the U.S. Space Development Agency on Oct. 15 from Vandenberg Space Force Base. These satellites form part of the Tranche 1 Transport Layer, a new orbital network designed to provide secure, rapid global communications for military operations.

NASA Plans To Deorbit The ISS By 2030, to Transition to Private Space Stations
To elevate the commercial spaceflight and enforce innovation, NASA has decided to deorbit the International Space Station (ISS) by the year 2030. A new space station will replace ISS. Significantly, the ISS will be redirected to a remote region in the Pacific Ocean.

SpaceX Eyes V3 Rocket With Raptor 3 Engines After Wrapping Starship V2 Tests
SpaceX’s Starship Flight 11 marked the final mission of the V2 design, achieving flawless launch and recovery. The next-gen V3 Starship will feature new Raptor 3 engines, advanced docking systems, and upgraded booster recovery—critical milestones as SpaceX prepares for its upcoming Mars fleet and NASA’s Artemis III lunar landing.

Astronomers Capture First Image of Two Supermassive Black Holes Orbiting Each Other
Astronomers have captured the first image of two supermassive black holes orbiting in quasar OJ 287. The smaller black hole’s jet spirals due to gravitational forces from the larger one. This discovery validates dual-core theories and opens doors for research on gravitational waves and galaxy evolution.

NASA’s GRACE Satellites Reveal Hidden Deep-Earth Process Behind Gravity Disturbance
Scientists have discovered a mysterious gravity signal detected by satellites nearly 20 years ago, which is linked to deep mantle changes beneath the Earth’s surface. The anomaly, lasting two years, coincided with a magnetic “jerk”, suggesting a rapid mass shift near the planet’s core.
