A mission launched by the European Space Agency (ESA) to study Mars detected an odd greenish glow in the Red Planet’s atmosphere. According to the agency, the discovery marked the first time that the same glow was spotted around a planet other than Earth.

Earth is about to cross a solar region in space known as the heliospheric current sheet. A space weather forecasting site reported that the event could trigger geomagnetic activity on the planet.

The European Space Agency (ESA) recently shared a photo of a monstrous-looking cosmic object captured by the Hubble Space Telescope. The image features a portion of a star-forming pillar that’s part of a massive nebula.

NASA’s automated asteroid tracking system has detected a massive asteroid that’s expected to approach Earth on Tuesday (June 16). Based on the data gathered by the agency, the incoming asteroid is about as big as the wingspan of a Boeing 747 plane.

NASA and the European Space Agency are monitoring an asteroid that has a "non-zero" probability of colliding with Earth later this year. Based on the data collected by the two agencies, the asteroid is not in danger of causing an impact event due to its small size.

A study identified a new factor that could determine the habitability of an exoplanet.

SpaceX has released a new video showing the moment when the nose of the Falcon 9 separated from the rocket shortly after it was launched.

NASA’s automated asteroid tracking system is currently monitoring four near-Earth objects that are expected to fly past the planet this weekend.

A new video posted on YouTube claimed to show a fleet of UFOs flying over a populated area in New Jersey. According to a UFO expert, aliens might be using the vessels to observe humans in the area.

Astronomers observing the comet known as SWAN confirmed that the icy cosmic object is dying. Its deterioration started after it flew close to the Sun last month.

NASA has shared a stunning photo of a globular cluster’s stars that look like cosmic snowflakes. The photo is the latest image captured by the Hubble Space Telescope, which is operated by NASA and the European Space Agency.

NASA’s asteroid tracking system has detected six near-Earth objects that are expected to safely fly past the planet on different days this week. According to the data collected by the agency, the biggest asteroid in the group is almost as big as the Statue of Liberty.

It is only the second time for scientists to detect a pattern in repeating Fast Radio Bursts from space.

A private aerospace company was able to capture a stunning satellite photo of the “Black Lives Matter” message painted on the road leading up to the White House. The message was painted as part of the protests following the murder of George Floyd.

NASA is currently tracking an asteroid that’s expected to fly past Earth on Tuesday (June 9). According to the data collected by the agency, the approaching asteroid follows a wide orbit around the Sun.

A major oil spill that happened in Russia and affected the Arctic Circle was spotted from space by two satellites of the European Space Agency (ESA). Although Russian officials already confirmed that the spill had been stopped, the incident prompted the country’s government to declare a state of emergency.

A physicist presented a bleak theory as to why humans have not yet encountered signs of intelligent alien life in space. For the physicist, his theory serves as a possible solution to the Fermi paradox.

NASA’s automated asteroid tracking system has detected a massive asteroid that’s expected to approach Earth on Monday (June 8). According to the data collected by the agency, the approaching asteroid is about as big as a stadium.

New observations confirmed that the interstellar comet that entered Earth’s neighborhood last year would not break apart completely. In a new study, scientists explained that the comet known as 2I/Borisov would survive its trip across the Solar System.

A team of researchers was able to study how lightning forms within the upper portions of Earth’s atmosphere.

NASA is currently monitoring a massive skyscraper-sized potentially hazardous asteroid that’s expected to fly past Earth on Friday.
