The largest solar flare in several years has disrupted some communications, though it was not in the right position to create auroral displays visible from lower latitudes.

A video made by compiling several images from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory shows the powerful flares that erupted earlier this week.

The strongest solar flares seen in several years are sending a mass of charged particles towards the Earth, which could cause radio interference and auroral displays.

Three items totaling about $2.4 trillion combine for nearly two thirds of President Barack Obama's proposed $3.7 trillion 2012 fiscal year budget.

On Valentine's Day, as the world was celebrating the message of love, a NASA spacecraft reached the point of closest contact with a comet calculated to be half the size of Manhattan.

While NASA's spacecraft Stardust is due for a special Valentine day rendezvous with comet Tempel 1, a report from NASA states that procreation in space may not be possible due to radiation.

This year Valentine's Day is so special as NASA's Stardust spacecraft is preparing for final date with comet Tempel 1 on its second exploration. The world will be beginning to look at images when the spacecraft is on its closest approach to fly by comet Tempel 1 at about 11:37 pm EST on Monday, with confirmation likely to be received on Earth at about 11:56 pm EST.

NASA is having a busy schedule for February.

Researchers at NASA have drawn up a plan to make the greatest adventure in the history of the human race possible - sending a human mission to the red planet and, hold your breath, colonize it! And the daring act of selling and carving up the red planet will be made possible with the help of corporate bigwigs who will paint the space ships in their logo colors.

NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope has captured an image revealing the different stages of development of stars, right from dusty little tots to young adults.

A NASA team has identified about 2,100 young star candidates in a region called the North American Nebula. The nebula is named after its resemblance to the North American continent in visible light.
