Probe To Mars

India's move to recall reports around the antitrust probe on Apple will prolong a procedure, begun in 2021 and already marred by delays, that centres on Apple's alleged abuse of its dominant position in the apps market to force developers to use its proprietary in-app purchase system, at a fee of up to 30 percent.

Moon Missions: Japan, whose unmanned "sniper" probe will attempt a lunar landing on Saturday, is one of many countries and private companies launching new missions to the Moon.

NASA has formally retired its Mars InSight lander, the first robotic probe specially designed to study the deep interior of a distant world, four years after it arrived on the surface of the red planet, the US space agency announced on Wednesday. Mission controllers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) near Los Angeles determined the mission ...

NASA said farewell on Wednesday to the InSight lander that spent four years probing the interior of Mars.

ISRO, the country's space agency, will team up with the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) for sending a lunar rover to explore the permanent shadow region of the moon, the space agency has announced. The success of the lunar rover on board Chandrayaan-3 was crucial as it would be used again in the mission with JAXA, according to ISRO.

ISRO's Mars orbiter completed eight years in orbit around the Red Planet on Monday, as the space agency's interplanetary mission surpassed the planned lifespan of six months. The Indian space agency has organised a 'National Meet on Eight Years of India's Mars Orbiter Mission' mission at its headquarters on Tuesday, and Space Commission members K R...

NASA plans to deploy its Psyche probe to study the asteroid belt in August, an area between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter where remains of the early solar system circle the Sun. The probe will orbit and analyse Psyche's surface for two years to find clues about how early planetary bodies originated. Months ahead of the upcoming mission, a grou...

NASA to launch a probe to the International Space Station (ISS) on June 10 that will monitor climate change on Earth. Named Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation (EMIT), this probe will study the composition of mineral dust from Earth's arid regions and how the desert dust carried through the atmosphere affects the planet.

NASA's Ingenuity helicopter, the first probe to ever fly on another planet, has captured images of the landing gear that helped it and its companion, the Perseverance rover, land on Mars in February 2021.

NASA's InSight Mars lander captured a stunning view of a sunrise on the Red Planet, giving space enthusiasts an idea of what watching the run rise on Mars could look like. InSight is NASA's first mission to study the interior of Mars — its crust, mantle, and core — in depth and has completed its mission of spending one Martian year on the plane...

European Space Agency(ESA) has announced that it ended cooperation with Russia on three upcoming missions on the Moon due to the invasion of Ukraine. Previously, ESA had also ended cooperation on ExoMars Mars mission.

The Sun is a mysterious place. Its atmosphere gets much hotter the farther one goes from the Sun's blazing surface. In fact, the outermost part of the Sun (corona) burns at a temperature rising to one million degrees Celsius, while just 1,500 kilometres below, the surface simmers at 5,500 degrees Celsius.

Japan revised the schedule of its space exploration plans, aiming to put a Japanese person on the moon by the latter half of the 2020s.

From our Moon to Mars to Jupiter, researchers are baring all guns to find more about the world around us. While the current focus is on the Moon and Mars, there already is a probe orbiting Jupiter. Named Juno, the probe's goal is to understand the origin and evolution of the solar system's largest planet.

The United Arab Emirates will launch a spacecraft to explore a major asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, officials said Tuesday, after a UAE probe reached the red planet early this year.
