Scientists using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have made an exciting discovery about the early universe. They found dozens of small galaxies that played a huge role in transforming
LUNAA Journeys (St. LUcia National Astronomy Association) is looking to address an all too common problem in the global astronomical community. Too often, participation in astronomy is seen as cost
Half of the universe’s ordinary matter was missing — until now. Astronomers have used mysterious but powerful explosions of energy called fast radio bursts (FRBs) to detect the universe’s missing

When astronauts finally reach Mars, they’ll face a unique challenge: walking and working in gravity that’s only 37% as strong as Earth’s. After spending months in the weightlessness of space,
Shortly after astronomers detected asteroid 2024 YR4 on December 27th, 2024, they realized it posed no threat to Earth. But it still might impact the Moon in 2032. The impact
A cosmic particle detector has spotted a burst of strange radio signals from the ice of Antarctica that currently defy explanation. The results could hint at the existence of new
China is advancing the development of the technology it needs to try to beat NASA back to the moon. The China Manned Space Engineering Office (CMSEO) completed a pad abort
