Toward fulfilling the mission to observe the most distant objects in the universe, NASA's James Webb Space Telescope was newly dressed with giant mirrors coated with gold - a spectacularly new technology fit for its grand mission.

An uncommon Saturn-mass planet consisting of half rock and half gas that is located some 200 light years away from Earth with two suns has been discovered by Kepler spacecraft.

A defunct NASA satellite, ready to fall back to Earth, will make its final plunge on Friday, Sept. 23, though there is absolutely no idea as to where exactly it would fall, according to the U.S. space agency.

A defunct NASA satellite is expected to re-enter Earth's atmosphere on Friday, Sept. 23, according to the U.S. space agency.

Astronomers have announced the discovery of an uncommon planet that is located some 200 light years away from Earth with two suns.

Science teacher James Drake compiled 600 images to create a time-elapsed 60 second video of what it feels like to fly around the world from space from the perspective of an astronaut.

Ever wonder what astronauts see when flying over the Earth daily? Thanks to a scientist, now you can see what it feels like to fly over the planet in a newly released video.

The Russian Soyuz capsule carrying the three out of six crew members returning from the International Space Station touched down safely on Friday at the central grasslands of Kazakhstan, but not without a drama.

Thanks to NASA's Kepler telescope, the 30-year-old Star Wars Tatooine fantasy is now a fact as it has discovered a new planet some 200 light years away from Earth, which is claimed to be orbiting two stars.

Kepler-16b was seen orbiting two stars, about 200 light-years from Earth.Scientists say that the discovery of this Saturn-sized, circumbinary planet shows just how much diversity there are among the planets in our galaxy.

Space officials from the U.S. have said that they are expecting a 6.5 -ton dead satellite to fall to Earth in almost a week.

NASA's 6.5-ton Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite would fall to Earth next week after the end of a productive scientific life.

NASA’s Kepler telescope discovered an uncommon planet that is located some 200 light years away from Earth with two suns.

NASA along with the Russian Federal Space Agency, Roscosmos, will launch the first manned Soyuz rocket on Nov. 14 this year. Their last initiative of a similar booster carrying a robotic cargo ship last month was a failure.

The 30-year-old Star Wars fantasy is now a fact. NASA has claimed the existence of a planet, located some 200 light years away from Earth, orbiting two stars.

The galaxies are about 10 billion light-years away. This gives astronomers a view of galaxies as they appeared when the universe was less than a quarter of its current age.

No, it's not from Star Wars, where the fictional double sunset on Tatooine made such a memorable imprint years ago. But astronomers from NASA have discovered a planet 200 light-years from Earth that apparently orbits two suns like Tatooine.

Astronomers have announced discovery of the first circumbinary planet, a rare planet that orbits two stars, as portrayed in the sci-fi movie Star Wars more than 30 years ago.

Called Kepler-16b, the newly found circumbinary planet is likened with the fictional aliens-inhabited planet called Tatooine, which was portrayed to have two sunsets in the Hollywood epic Star Wars series.

What was projected in the iconic movie saga, Star Wars, by American filmmaker George Lucas has been revealed as a scientific fact by NASA's Kepler mission.
