Spacecraft To Moon

NASA launched a spacecraft from Florida on Monday on a mission to examine whether Jupiter's moon Europa has conditions suitable to support life, with a focus on the large subsurface ocean believed to be lurking beneath its thick outer shell of ice.

NASA's Europa Clipper mission is set to launch soon, aiming to explore the icy moon Europa's potential for life. By examining the ocean beneath its ice shell, the spacecraft will gather data on the moon's surface materials and atmospheric conditions. With advanced instruments, the mission seeks to identify organic compounds, analyze gas and dust pa...

On 14th October 2024, NASA’s Europa Clipper mission will take off aboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket. The launch will be streamed live on NASA’s platforms in both English and Spanish, starting at 11 a.m. EDT. You can join the celebrations, watch events online, or even host your own launch party. Stay updated with all mission details through NA...

NASA is set to launch the Europa Clipper mission to explore Jupiter’s moon Europa in search of signs of life. The spacecraft will conduct a detailed investigation of the icy moon, where scientists suspect a liquid ocean exists beneath its frozen surface. Europa Clipper will analyse the moon’s surface, water plumes, and magnetic field to underst...

In May 2024, Earth experienced a magnificent geomagnetic storm, leading to dazzling auroras across the skies. During this event, NASA’s BioSentinel spacecraft collected essential data on solar radiation while orbiting the Sun over 30 million miles away. This research is vital for understanding the effects of radiation in deep space, especially as...

NASA's Europa Clipper mission is on track for its scheduled October 10 launch, aiming to explore Jupiter's icy moon, Europa. Scientists believe Europa could be one of the most promising places to find the conditions for life beyond Earth. The spacecraft will travel 1.8 billion miles (2.9 billion kilometres) to study whether the moon's icy surface h...

NASA is offering digital content creators the chance to witness the launch of the Europa Clipper spacecraft, a mission aimed at exploring Jupiter's icy moon, Europa. This mission will help scientists determine if the moon has the potential to support life, with research suggesting an ocean beneath its frozen crust. The spacecraft, equipped with nin...

In August last year, India became the first country to soft land a spacecraft near the South Pole of the Moon after a nail-biting 20 minutes of "terror".

The spacecraft is trying a "double-world first"-the first-ever double gravity assists manoeuvre as well as the first-ever lunar-Earth flyby.

A spacecraft launched last year will slingshot back around Earth and the Moon next month in a high-stakes, world-first manoeuvre as it pinballs its way through the Solar System to Jupiter.

This move is seen as an attempt to save a portion of human history in the event that the survival of humans on Earth is ever threatened.

SpaceX plans on Thursday to attempt another launch of Starship, the world's most powerful rocket that is vital to NASA's plans for landing astronauts on the Moon later this decade - and Elon Musk's hopes of eventually colonizing Mars.

The US spacecraft that touched down on the Moon last week and is currently running on solar power will soon be "put to sleep" once lunar night kicks in, mission officials said Wednesday.

Odysseus, the first US spacecraft to land on moon since 1972, neared end of its fifth day on lunar surface still operational, but with its battery in its final hours before the vehicle is expected to go dark, according to flight controllers.

Interest in space startups has spiked after Intuitive Machines became the first private firm to successfully land a spacecraft on the moon, in the first U.S. touchdown on the lunar surface in more than half a century.
