Space Launch System

NASA on Monday successfully crashed into an asteroid in the world's first test of a planetary defense system, as the US space agency continues to work on technology to prevent potential meteorite collisions with Earth, that could threaten life on the planet. The DART spacecraft was launched by a SpaceX rocket in November 2021, and made most of its ...

NASA’s Artemis 1, which faces challenges while earlier liftoffs due to technical snag, might again face a delay for its scheduled launch on Tuesday. The challenge may come as a storm gathering in the Caribbean. The storm has not yet been assigned a name.

NASA said it completed a fuelling test for its Artemis I SLS rocket, ahead of the planned launch date of September 27. The US space agency had aborted the launch of the Artemis I SLS rocket twice in the past, due to technical errors. However, NASA is yet to receive a waiver to avoid retesting the batteries on a system used to destroy the Artemis I ...

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has successfully tested a hybrid motor, potentially paving the way for a new propulsion system for the forthcoming launch vehicles.

An important repair for the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket has been completed by NASA. The leaky seals on the SLS were replaced by engineers last week. One of the fuel lines to the SLS started leaking earlier this month forcing the space agency to halt its attempt to launch Artemis I.

NASA may attempt to launch its Artemis I Moon rocket for the third time on September 23. The US space agency could launch the Artemis I SLS-Orion spacecraft on either September 23 or on September 27, according to a report. It previously halted the launch of the rocket for the second time, due to a fuel leak on September 3.

NASA on Saturday stated that its next Artemis I SLS-Orion spacecraft launch may not take place this month. While the current launch window ends on September 6, the next possible launch window is September 19 to October 4. If NASA is unable to make a third attempt at launching the rocket by then, the next window will be October 17 to October 31.

National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is set to make its second attempt to launch its powerful new Moon rocket this Saturday. The uncrewed mission which is dubbed Artemis 1 will bring the United States closer to returning astronauts to the Moon after five decades.

NASA announced on Monday that the launch of Artemis I has been cancelled, while the US space agency's teams have begun working through an issue with an engine bleed. Both the Orion spacecraft, which is designed to carry astronauts to the Moon in the future, and the advanced Space Launch System (SLS) remained in a safe and stable configuration, acc...

NASA's most powerful rocket yet is set to blast off Monday. The Artemis space program is to get underway with the launch of the uncrewed 322-foot (98-meter) Space Launch System (SLS) rocket

NASA will launch its Artemis ! rocket today, marking the agency's first step towards returning humans to the Moon's surface. The US space agency's lunar mission involves sending its Orion spacecraft along with satellites in order to perform testing on conditions in space, before NASA sends astronauts to the Moon. Here's everything you need to know ...

Artemis I is being readied for launch on August 29, as NASA prepares the for its Space Launch System (SLS) rocket and the Orion spacecraft to blast off from the Kennedy Space Center. The US space agency is readying for the next generation of space travel, as it prepares to send humans to the Moon after its Apollo missions.

The giant Space Launch System (SLS) rocket of NASA arrived at the launchpad on Wednesday and is set to take off for a flight to the moon on August 19. The uncrewed mission, Artemis I, will not carry humans.

NASA's gigantic Space Launch System moon rocket, topped with an uncrewed astronaut capsule, is set to begin an hour-long crawl to its launchpad Tuesday night ahead of the behemoth's debut test flight later this month.

Asteroids from the outer edges of the solar system may have brought water to Earth, claim scientists after analysing rare samples collected on a six-year Japanese space mission Hayabusa-2. The researchers are scrutinising material brought back to earth in 2020 from the asteroid Ryugu.
