Nasa Human Mission

SpaceX has introduced detailed mock-ups of crew cabins, sleeping quarters, and research labs as part of its Human Landing System (HLS) Starship, designed for the Artemis III Moon landing in 2026. Located within the HLS nosecone at SpaceX's Starbase facility in Texas, these designs aim to maximise comfort and functionality for astronauts, supporting...

NASA’s upcoming Lunar Trailblazer mission aims to explore and map water on the Moon. Set for launch next year, this satellite will utilise advanced instruments to identify and measure water in various forms. It will investigate permanently shadowed craters and surface features to gather insights about lunar water's origins and its potential for f...

NASA has identified nine candidate landing regions for the Artemis III mission, which marks humanity’s return to the Moon after fifty years. The selected regions are near the lunar South Pole, rich in scientific opportunities. These areas will be assessed for geological features and resource potential, especially water. Future missions will also ...

NASA’s Perseverance rover has made a bizarre discovery on Mars: a rock that strikingly resembles a human head. Captured on 27 September 2024, the image showcases the rock's peculiar shape and orientation, which play tricks on our brains, a phenomenon known as pareidolia. This occurrence leads us to see familiar patterns, like faces, in random obj...

Astronauts walking on the moon as part of NASA's first human mission to the lunar South Pole will be wearing Prada, as part of a new venture unveiled.

SpaceX’s Crew-9 mission successfully arrived at the International Space Station on September 29, 2024, after a one-day orbital journey. The Crew Dragon capsule, named Freedom, carried NASA astronaut Nick Hague and Russian cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov. This mission is significant, not only for being the first human spaceflight launched from Space ...

In May 2024, Earth experienced a magnificent geomagnetic storm, leading to dazzling auroras across the skies. During this event, NASA’s BioSentinel spacecraft collected essential data on solar radiation while orbiting the Sun over 30 million miles away. This research is vital for understanding the effects of radiation in deep space, especially as...

ISRO’s Gaganyaan mission, India’s first human space mission, is set for launch by the end of this year. However, ISRO Chairman S Somanath emphasised a cautious approach, reflecting on NASA's recent Boeing Starliner incident where technical issues delayed astronauts' return to Earth. Astronauts Sunitha Williams and Butch Wilmore are now expected...

The Polaris Dawn mission, led by Jared Isaacman, has set a new altitude record in low Earth orbit, surpassing NASA's 1966 Gemini 11 mission. This mission is part of a larger initiative focused on advancing space exploration and conducting research on human health in space.

NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore, currently aboard the International Space Station (ISS), are experiencing an extended mission due to technical difficulties with Boeing's Starliner spacecraft. Initially scheduled for an eight-day mission, the astronauts are now facing an uncertain return timeline. Problems with Starliner's thruster...

NASA's DART mission Double Asteroid Redirection Test was humanitys first real-world planetary defence mission.

Anca Selariu, Ross Brockwell, Nathan Jones, and Kelly Haston have spent the past 378 days sealed inside the "Martian" habitat in Houston, Texas, part of NASA's research into what it will take to put humans on the Red Planet.

Developing housing on the Moon is an emerging focus for space agencies across the world. US space agency NASA has developed the Artemis programme, with an aim that humans will inhabit lunar residences by 2040.

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has captured a mysterious hole on Mars. This pit on the flank of an ancient volcano is a few meters across and was originally discovered on August 15 2022, reported Space.com.

Retired astronaut William Anders, one of the first three humans to orbit the moon, who captured the "Earthrise" photo during NASA's Apollo 8 mission, died on Friday when the small plane he was piloting crashed in Washington state.
