NASA has received the green light to proceed with the necessary preparations for the launch of a new space mission in 2021. Dubbed as Lucy, the upcoming mission will focus on studying and visiting the asteroids near Jupiter.
NASA’s asteroid tracking system has spotted three space rocks that are currently hurtling towards Earth. If any of these asteroids collide with the planet, it will most likely create a huge explosion in the sky instead of hitting the ground.
A scientist warned that a major asteroid impact in the Atlantic Ocean would result in very high death tolls. The scientist also described what would happen to the coastal regions if a massive asteroid breaches Earth’s atmosphere and hits the ocean.
A team of astronomers has made a surprising discovery that could explain why some black holes grow into enormous sizes.
U.S. President Donald Trump contacted NASA’s International Space Station (ISS) during the all-female spacewalk of astronauts Christina Koch and Jessica Meir. Aside from stating that he was worried about the procedure, Trump was also corrected by the two astronauts regarding his statement about the history of women in space.
NASA is currently monitoring a group of asteroids that are headed for Earth. One of the approaching asteroids is large enough to wipe out a major city if it hits the planet.
NASA’s asteroid tracking system has detected three space rocks that are currently hurtling towards Earth. One of the incoming space rocks will approach Earth from a very dangerous distance.
The Orionid meteor shower will peak next week. During this time, fireballs are expected to appear in the night sky as the trail of debris from Halley’s Comet hits Earth.
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope was able to snap photos of the interstellar comet that recently entered the Solar System. According to NASA, Hubble’s images of the interstellar object known as 2I/Borisov are the sharpest ones to date.
NASA is currently monitoring a group of asteroids that are headed for Earth. One of the approaching asteroids is big enough to penetrate the atmosphere and cause an impact event if it hits Earth.
A research firm is currently planning missions focused on providing pregnant women with the opportunity to give birth in space. According to the company’s founder, the first childbirth in space could happen within just 12 years.
A former astronaut for NASA revealed the chances of a spaceflight mission suffering total destruction. The ex-astronaut also explained the worst type of scenario that NASA is worried about.
The European Space Agency (ESA) and NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope was able to take a spectacular photo of a spiral galaxy that resembles a massive cosmic portal to another dimension. According to the ESA, the appearance of the galaxy makes the image look like it came from a science fiction movie.
NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) was able to capture a photo of the agency’s InSight lander as its sitting on the Martian surface. According to NASA, the MRO’s latest photo of the lander is the clearest one yet.
NASA’s asteroid tracker has identified a space rock that’s currently hurtling towards Earth. Based on the size of the incoming asteroid, it will most likely create a huge explosion in the atmosphere if it ends up hitting Earth on Thursday.
A UFO expert claimed that one of NASA’s satellites was able to capture a massive mysterious object hovering over the Sun. Based on the photo taken by the satellite, the dark object appears to be as big as Earth.
NASA has released a new video showing how the supernova Cassiopeia A has changed over a decade. According to the agency, the video provides a rare opportunity to watch a cosmic object evolve within a period that humans can relate to.
The European Space Agency (ESA) has launched a volunteer program that allows amateur astronomers to track the trajectories of asteroids using photos taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. The ESA uses the program to detect dangerous asteroids that could collide with Earth.
Astrophysicist Michael Mayor, who won the Nobel Prize for discovering the first exoplanet, said humans will never be able to leave Earth to colonize another planet. According to Mayor, it is simply not possible to travel across space outside the Solar System to migrate to a planet that’s similar to Earth.
NASA is gearing up to conduct an all-female spacewalk on the International Space Station (ISS) this week. Details of the upcoming procedure will be discussed by the agency today through a live stream event.
NASA is currently tracking two massive asteroids that are headed for Earth. According to the agency’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS), one of the approaching asteroids is over three times taller than the Eiffel Tower in France.
