Hubble Space Telescope clicks a mysterious solitary dwarf galaxy
The Hubble Space Telescope has uncovered a mysterious solitary dwarf galaxy - a type that is smaller and messier than its cosmic cousins, lacking the majestic swirl of a spiral or the coherence of an elliptical
NASA’s Juno probe inches closer to Jupiter
Giant Jupiter lies in the harshest radiation environment known, and Juno has been specially designed to safely navigate the brand new territory.
NASA takes 23,000-foot view of the world’s coral reefs
NASA and top scientists from around the world are launching a three-year campaign Thursday to gather new data on coral reefs like never before.
NASA takes 23,000-foot view of the world’s coral reefs
Coral reefs have almost always been studied up close, by scientists in the water looking at small portions of larger reefs to gather data and knowledge about the larger ecosystems. But NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory is taki
Sounds of oldest stars in Milky Way captured
Scientists have captured the sounds of some of the oldest stars in the Milky Way that will help to determine their the mass and age and may unveil the very early history of our galaxy.
Astronauts get first look inside space station’s new inflatable module
Astronauts aboard the International Space Station on Monday floated inside an experimental inflatable module that will test a less expensive and potentially safer option for housing crews during long stays in space, NASA said
Arctic getting greener due to climate change: NASA
Using 29 years of data from satellite imageries, NASA scientists have found extensive greening in the Arctic region, thanks to rising temperatures.
NASA astronaut to enter expandable space habitat
A NASA astronaut will enter the first human-rated expandable module deployed in space to investigate the potential challenges...
NASA spots giant coronal hole on Sun
Coronal holes are low-density regions of the Sun's atmosphere, known as the corona. They contain little solar material and have lower temperatures, thus appearing much darker than their surroundings, researchers said.
New Horizons click Pluto’s surface like never before
The mosaic strip - extending across the hemisphere that faced the New Horizons spacecraft as it flew past Pluto on July 14, 2015 - now includes all of the highest-resolution images taken by the NASA probe.
Ice age on Mars occurred 400,000 years ago: Scientists
During summertime in the planet's north, the remaining northern polar cap is all water ice; the southern cap is water ice as well, but remains covered by a relatively thin layer of carbon dioxide ice even in southern summerti
Jupiter-like planet orbits very young star
A team of astronomers has discovered a planet that is at least eight times larger than Jupiter, CI Tau b, orbiting 2 million-year-old about 450 light years from Earth star in constellation Taurus.
NASA hits snag while inflating new room at space station
NASA hit a snag while releasing air into an experimental inflatable room at the International Space Station on Thursday and put everything on hold for at least a day. Mission Control ordered astronaut Jeffrey Williams to call
Solar storms may have been key to life on Earth: NASA
Scientists are able to piece together the history of the Sun by searching for similar stars in our galaxy. By placing these Sun-like stars in order according to their age, the stars appear as a functional timeline of how our
NASA super pressure balloon begins around-the-world journey
NASA has successfully launched a super pressure balloon on a potentially record-breaking, around-the-world test flight aimed at providing inexpensive access to the near-space environment for science and technology research.
Jupiter’s moon Europa may be more Earth-like than we thought
It may be lacking volcanic hydrothermal activity, but Jupiter's moon Europa’s ocean may have an Earth-like chemical balance that could sustain life, suggests a new study.
Europa’s ocean may harbour life: NASA
The ocean on Jupiter's icy moon Europa may have the Earth-like balance of chemical energy necessary for life, even if the moon lacks volcanic hydrothermal activity, a new NASA study suggests.
NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft spots first-ever object beyond our solar system in Kuiper Belt
After making a historic Pluto flyby last July and now in deep space, NASA's New Horizons spacecraft has twice observed a first object in Kuiper Belt - a region of the solar system beyond the orbit of Neptune.
NASA launches near-space monitoring balloon from New Zealand
NASA successfully launched a super pressure balloon from New Zealand's South Island Wanaka Airport Tuesday to conduct near-space scientific investigations.
International Space Station makes 100,000th orbit of Earth
One-hundred-thousand laps around Earth, and the International Space Station is still sailing right along.
