The Expedition 74 crew spent the majority of their time maintaining science hardware and life support systems on Wednesday. The orbital residents aboard the International Space Station also pursued cardiovascular research, conducted a vision test, and performed other experiments throughout the day. NASA’s Spot the Station website finally got an upgrade! You can find International […]
Health monitoring, spacesuit checks, and preparations for an upcoming cargo mission kept the Expedition 74 crew busy on Tuesday. The International Space Station residents rounded out the day with a variety of maintenance on science hardware and life support equipment.
The Near-Earth Object (NEO) Surveyor — NASA’s first infrared space telescope purposely designed to discover potentially hazardous asteroids and comets — is undergoing integration and testing. With launch set for no earlier than September 2027, teams across the United States are hard at work building the spacecraft’s components, planning the kind of survey and science […]
The Expedition 74 crew kicked off the week setting up advanced radio frequency technology, configuring quantum physics hardware, and conducting ultrasound vein scans aboard the International Space Station.

NASA-funded research is helping turn golden eagle journeys across mountains, grasslands, and borders into data for wildlife managers.
After reviewing the International Space Station flight schedule, NASA and its partners are adjusting launch opportunities for several upcoming missions. This update to the schedule better aligns mission planning, logistics, and timing for upcoming flights to support space station operations.
Scientists from NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have turned to one of NASA’s high-altitude research planes to characterize a population of tiny particles in Earth’s lower stratosphere. Despite their small size, the study shows, the particles appear to play an outsized role in atmospheric chemistry. The findings, published April 23 in […]
As part of NASA’s SpaceX Crew-13 mission, four crew members from three space agencies will launch no earlier than mid-September to the International Space Station for a long-duration science expedition. NASA astronauts Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney will serve as spacecraft commander and pilot, respectively. They will be joined by CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Joshua Kutryk and Roscosmos […]
With the Artemis II release of Eyes on the Solar System, we have added a long-requested new feature: a view showing the complete mission trajectory from a certain frame of reference. For the initial release, we added Artemis I and II, and also Voyager 1 and 2. Many more will be added soon. To use […]
