NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia is supporting sounding rocket launch operations during a window extending from Dec. 2-9, 2025. The launch window each day will be 7:45 a.m.- 12 p.m. EST. No real-time launch status updates will be available. The launch will not be livestreamed.
The Sun emitted a strong solar flare, peaking at 9:49 p.m. ET on Nov. 30, 2025. NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, which watches the Sun constantly, captured an image of the event. Solar flares are powerful bursts of energy. Flares and solar eruptions can impact radio communications, electric power grids, navigation signals, and pose risks to spacecraft and astronauts. […]

The crewed Soyuz MS-28 spacecraft is safely in orbit and headed for the International Space Station, following a launch at 4:27 a.m. EST (2:27 p.m. Baikonur time) from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, with NASA astronaut Chris Williams and Roscosmos cosmonauts Sergey Kud-Sverchkov and Sergei Mikaev aboard.
NASA’s live launch coverage is underway on NASA+, Amazon Prime, YouTube, and more, as teams prepare for the launch of the Soyuz MS-28 spacecraft to the International Space Station. Launch is scheduled for 4:27 a.m. EST (2:27 p.m. Baikonur time) from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.
A NASA small satellite is set to launch on a commercial rideshare mission to test rapid, low-cost deployment of multiple technology prototypes in low Earth orbit, along with three other NASA funded small-scale satellites. The R5-S7 (Realizing Rapid, Reduced-cost high-Risk Research project Spacecraft 7) CubeSat, developed by NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston, is […]
One NASA astronaut and two Roscosmos cosmonauts are at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan counting down to a lift off on Thanksgiving Day to the International Space Station to begin an eight-month microgravity research mission. The seven-member Expedition 73 crew will expand to ten when the new trio arrives just over three hours after launch.
