A new five year study of 13 NASA astronauts shows that their arteries remain healthy and disease free long after returning from the International Space Station, offering reassuring news for
Next time you’re drinking a frosty iced beverage, think about the structure of the frozen chunks chilling it down. Here on Earth, we generally see it in many forms: cubes
A rocket carrying carbon dioxide- and Earth-observing satellites successfully blasted off from South America late Friday.
It’s almost time for summer’s meteor shower duet.
A new study led by researchers from the Yunnan Observatories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a neural network-based method for large-scale celestial object classification, according to a
Just a short distance inland from the waves crashing against California’s shore, NASA’s Relativistic Electron Atmospheric Loss (REAL) CubeSat mission launched into the sky, taking off at 2:13 p.m. ET
Every time a spacecraft touches down on the moon, it creates a spectacular but dangerous light show of dust and debris that could threaten future lunar bases. Now, after decades
Scientists have created the largest catalogue of exploding stars ever assembled, and it’s telling us something surprising about the mysterious force driving our universe apart. After analyzing over 2,000 stellar
Recreating the environment that most spacecraft experience on their missions is difficult on Earth. Many times it involves large vacuum chambers or wind tunnels that are specially designed for certain
