A study published Thursday has found that the lunar astronauts may be more prone to cardiovascular problems because of exposure to deep-space radiation.

NASA is sending astronauts to stay at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean to learn about life in the outer space.

As part of its ambitious plan to establish human colonies on the red planet, SpaceX plans to send its first uncrewed Dragon capsule to Mars as early as 2018.

OSIRIS-Rex, NASA’s first spacecraft designed to travel to a near-Earth asteroid, will be launched in September 2016, the space agency has announced.

The shower will peak this Thursday and Friday.

Here are the peak dates and best practices for watching the Perseid and Delta meteor showers this summer.

The new image, released as part of the Frontier Fields Program, shows the gravity of the galaxy cluster Abell S1063 warping space-time, bringing much distant galaxies into view.

NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover, using the AEGIS software, can select its targets based on specific brightness and size criteria laid out by scientists.

The asteroid, big enough to be classified as a protoplanet, crashed on the lunar surface four billion years ago at an angle of 30 degrees, creating a 750-mile wide crater, a new study said.

The average temperature for every month in 2016, except March, was higher than in any year since reliable record-keeping began, according to NASA.

The space agency said Monday that at least four of the 104 planets located outside our solar system have shown potential similarity to Earth.

SpaceX successfully landed its Falcon 9 rocket early Monday after launching its Dragon capsule filled with supplies for astronauts aboard the International Space Station.

The Mars 2020 rover, which NASA aims to land on the red planet in February 2021, is now ready to enter the final design and construction phase.

NASA says their astronauts don't have access to the popular smartphone app.

The new image taken when the spacecraft was 2.7 million miles from Jupiter shows the famous Great Red Spot and three of the planet’s four largest moons — Io, Europa and Ganymede.

It’s been almost a year since these dark streaks were detected on the surface of the red planet. However, the mechanism behind their formation is still far from clear.

The Expedition 48 crew members will carry out hundreds of experiments in biology, biotechnology, physical science and Earth science, the space agency said.

If it completes the crucial orbit insertion process on July 4, the solar-powered spacecraft will spend 18 months around the gas giant.

The black hole is a few times the mass of our Sun and it is very slowly pulling in material from a companion star.

With NASA and other international space agencies hoping to send humans to live on Mars by the 2030s, a team of scientists has managed to harvest 10 crops in soil mimicking conditions on Mars.

The agreement, signed Sunday, aims to increase collaboration between NASA and the UAE Space Agency on, among other things, exploration of Mars.
