Study Finds Venus Likely Never Had Oceans, Challenging Past Theories
Recent research published in Nature Astronomy challenges past ideas about Venus, suggesting it never had oceans or conditions for life. Analysis of the planet's volcanic gases and atmospheric composition revealed that Venus’s interior is dry, ruling out the presence of liquid water. This conclusion highlights the stark contrast between Venus and ...

India to Launch European Proba-3 Satellites Today: How to Watch Live and Everything You Need to Know
ESA’s Proba-3 mission, set to launch aboard India’s PSLV rocket on 4th December 2024, will create artificial eclipses in space using two satellites. These eclipses will allow extended observations of the Sun’s corona, advancing solar research and testing innovative formation-flying technology. The mission marks a major step in satellite colla...

Euclid Space Telescope Unveils First Images of Its Cosmic Atlas
The first stunning images from the European Space Agency's Euclid telescope reveal a mosaic of over 14 million galaxies, marking just 1% of its cosmic atlas. Captured over two weeks, this vast collection aims to enhance our understanding of dark matter and dark energy, contributing to the largest and most accurate map of the universe yet. The teles...

Gaia Telescope Reportedly Discovers Hidden Moons Orbiting 350 Asteroids
Gaia’s recent data release reveals that over 350 asteroids, once believed to be solitary, have hidden moons. This discovery nearly doubles the known binary asteroid systems, highlighting Gaia’s ability to find new asteroid-moon pairs. The detailed observations from Gaia’s DR3 release offer a glimpse into the early solar system and asteroid fo...

Japan Postpones ‘Moon Sniper’ Rocket Launch Carrying NASA, ESA-Made Satellite, for Third Time
Japan's space agency on Monday postponed for the third time the launch of its "Moon Sniper" lunar mission due to poor weather. The H2-A rocket due to blast off from the southern island of Tanegashima was also carrying a research satellite developed with NASA and the European Space Agency.

Researchers Estimate Size of Largest Known Star Through Sharpest Optical Image Ever Captured
R136a1, a massive star with a mass around 150 or 200 times the Sun, has been observed in great detail, along with other stars in the cluster. The images from Gemini South's Zorro instrument have provided scientists with the clearest images of the star so far, which suggest it may not be as massive as previously thought.

Expedition 67 Crew Conducts Experiments Aboard ISS That Could Benefit Astronauts, Humans on Earth
Astronauts aboard the International Space Station are conducting biology experiments aimed at studying how skin heals in space. The study could benefit both astronauts in space, and human life on Earth. The US space agency's Expedition 67 mission began in March this year and is aimed at conducting research and investigations that will facilitate h...

Scientists Calculate the Risk of Someone Being Killed by Space Junk
Space debris has been known to cause injury and damage to property, even though no one is known to have died from an accident involving “space junk”. However, with the increasing number of satellites, rockets and probes being launched into space, researchers have investigated the risk of someone being killed by space debris. Here’s what they ...

NASA’s DART Asteroid Mission Could Severely Deform Target Asteroid, New Study Reveals
NASA's DART mission could completely deform the target asteroid upon impact, according to a new study. Based on direct evidence from space missions like the Japanese space agency's Hayabusa2 probe that shows an asteroid can have a very loose internal structure, researchers have performed new simulations on the ambitious mission to collide with an a...
