SpaceX Plans To Develop 'Marslink' Network To Provide Internet On Mars
SpaceX has introduced a Marslink concept, a satellite-based communication network around Mars, to support interplanetary data exchange for future Mars missions. NASA reviewed this and other proposals, including Blue Origin's Blue Ring orbital tug and Lockheed Martin's MAVEN-based network. The Marslink network would build on SpaceX’s Starlink tech...

NASA Study Suggests Microbial Life May Thrive Beneath Martian Ice
NASA's study explores how Martian ice could harbour life by creating meltwater pockets beneath the surface that allow photosynthesis. Dust within the ice might absorb sunlight, warming it enough to create these pockets. The findings highlight the possibility of microbial life in Mars’ tropical regions, where sunlight may penetrate deep into the i...

NASA and South Korea to Conduct Joint Space Mission to Explore Deep Space
NASA and the newly formed Korea AeroSpace Administration (KASA) have signed an agreement to deepen cooperation in space exploration. Their upcoming mission will focus on exploring Lagrange Point 4, a gravitationally stable region in deep space that remains unexplored. This mission aims to advance our understanding of space radiation and the solar w...

Darkest Regions of the Moon Explored Using Machine Learning Ahead of NASA’s Artemis Mission
A team of researchers have developed a method to help explore the darkest areas of the Moon that never receive sunlight. These are some of the coldest locations on the Earth's only natural satellite, and could contain ice which could be useful for future space missions. Researchers used a deep learning-driven post-processing tool and produced high-...

NASA's Voyager 1 Space Probe Detects 'Persistent Hum' 14 Billion Miles From Earth
NASA's Voyager 1 probe has picked up an uncanny humming sound coming from space. Scientists now say instruments aboard the distant spacecraft have detected a “persistent hum” generated by the constant vibration of small amounts of gas in interstellar space.
