The heliosphere, the magnetic bubble inflated by the solar wind protecting our solar system, holds clues to understanding how life on Earth is possible. Unlocking these mysteries has global implications, making international collaboration both invaluable and essential. NASA’s Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe (IMAP) mission, launching no earlier than September 2025, embraces this global perspective […]
NASA’s live coverage is underway on NASA+, Amazon Prime, and more ahead of hatch closure and undocking preparations for the return of the agency’s SpaceX Crew-10 mission.
A sounding rocket carrying experiments developed by eight student teams is scheduled to launch from NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia on Tuesday, Aug. 12, for the RockSat-X mission. The Terrier-Improved Malemute rocket is expected to reach an altitude of about 100 miles (162 kilometers) before descending by parachute into the Atlantic Ocean to be recovered. […]
NASA and SpaceX are proceeding toward return of the agency’s Crew-10 mission from the International Space Station. Mission teams are targeting undocking no earlier than 6:05 p.m. EDT, Friday, Aug. 8. For this undocking opportunity, splashdown is targeted at approximately 11:33 a.m., Saturday, Aug. 9, off the coast of California.
NASA and SpaceX are standing down from the Thursday undocking opportunity of the Crew-10 mission from the International Space Station due to high winds forecasted for the splashdown locations off the coast of California. Pending weather reviews, NASA and SpaceX now are targeting undocking no earlier than 6:05 p.m. EDT, Friday, Aug. 8. For this […]
Eight of 11 Expedition 73 crew members on the International Space Station enjoyed a light schedule on Wednesday following four busy days of departure and arrival activities for NASA’s SpaceX Crew-10 and Crew-11 missions. The other three orbital residents studied how the human body adapts to weightlessness, photographed crew operations, and maintained lab systems throughout the day.
Several regions around the world are seeing marked declines in water availability, according to a paper published in the journal Science Advances on July 25. The study, partially funded by NASA, found that dry areas are increasing by about twice the size of California each year. Researchers identified the trend using data collected from 2002 […]
Muscle stimulation and blood circulation research topped the 11-member Expedition 73 crew’s schedule on Tuesday helping doctor’s ensure astronauts stay fit and healthy on long-duration missions. The International Space Station residents also swapped commanders as four crewmates prepare for return to Earth.
