If we can learn to grow our own food in space, it’ll make surviving off Earth less challenging. While plants do grow in space, some genetic improvements are in order.

Sometimes a mission can be too successful. When NASA’s DART spacecraft slammed into Dimorphos in 2022 as part of an asteroid redirection test, it altered the asteroids orbit, proving that

When the JWST was being built, some labelled it as the Hubble’s successor. In some ways it is, even though the Hubble is still performing important science observations. When the

An international team of scientists led by the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) proposed a new method for living beyond Earth. Their experiment demonstrated how bioplastic structures

Although dark matter doesn’t seem to interact with regular matter or itself, if it has particle-like properties, it could self-annihilate if packed into a tight space. In a new paper,
