Toxic Gas May Have Sparked Life on Earth Through Icy ‘Cobweb’ Crystals
Researchers at Sweden’s Chalmers University of Technology suggest that frozen hydrogen cyanide may have helped trigger the chemistry that led to life on Earth. Their simulations show HCN forming cobweb-like ice crystals whose reactive surfaces enable unusual chemical reactions even in extreme cold. These processes could generate amino acids, nucl...

NASA May Launch Historic Artemis 2 Moon Mission in Just One Month, Astronauts Ready for Flight
NASA’s Artemis 2 mission could launch astronauts around the moon in February, marking the first human flight to lunar space since Apollo 17. The crew will test Orion’s systems on a free-return trajectory and prepare for future lunar landings, paving the way for Artemis 3 and NASA’s goal of establishing a long-term human presence on the moon.

Earth Has Been Sending Particles From Atmosphere To Moon For Billions Of Years, Study Finds
The process, which existed for billions of years, would eventually turn lunar soil into a long-running archive of Earth's atmosphere.

The Next Space Frontier May Be Just 100 km Above Earth, Not the Moon or Mars
As low Earth orbit becomes crowded, very low Earth orbit satellites are emerging as a promising alternative. Operating closer to Earth, they offer faster communication, sharper imaging, and better weather data. Advances in propulsion are helping overcome atmospheric drag, opening the door to wider use of this challenging but valuable orbital region...

Wolf Moon Supermoon 2026: Rare January Full Moon Near Perihelion Lights Up the Sky
Skywatchers will be treated to a striking celestial event on January 3, 2026, as the Wolf Moon rises as a supermoon near Earth’s perihelion. Appearing larger and brighter than usual, the full Moon will climb the eastern sky at dusk, accompanied by the brilliant planet Jupiter. This rare alignment—last seen more than a century ago—offers a viv...

Celestis to Send Human Ashes Beyond the Moon on Deep-Space Memorial Flight in 2026
Celestis, a Texas-based pioneer of space memorial services, is preparing its next deep-space mission, Infinite Flight, scheduled for late 2026. Launched aboard Stoke Space’s fully reusable Nova rocket from Cape Canaveral, the mission will carry cremated remains and DNA samples beyond the Moon into a permanent solar orbit. Part of Celestis’s Voy...
