Elon Musk's dream of transporting humans to Mars will become a bigger national priority under the administration of US President-elect Donald Trump, sources said, signaling big changes for NASA's moon program and a boost for Musk's SpaceX.

Pakistan's Punjab banned entry to many public spaces from Friday, including parks and zoos, as it sought to protect people from severe air pollution in parts of the eastern province.

OxygenOS 15 was unveiled globally by OnePlus last month, introducing a redesigned user interface (UI), extensive customisation options, new modes, and enhanced photo editing capabilities. A new report suggests that the OnePlus 13 benefits from more inbuilt storage space for the installation of apps and other activities due to the OS occupying less ...

Meteoroid trails from long-period comets could provide early warnings of potentially dangerous comets near Earth, giving planetary scientists time to prepare. By studying these trails, scientists can track the paths of rarely visible comets that could pose a risk of impact, helping prevent catastrophic events. With the upcoming Vera C. Rubin Observ...

There is space for veteran Cheteshwar Pujara in the Test side during the challenging tour of Australia, reckons former batter Robin Uthappa.

NASA’s X-59 quiet supersonic jet has passed initial engine testing, bringing it closer to its anticipated first flight. Developed at Lockheed Martin’s Skunk Works, the X-59 aims to break the sound barrier without creating disruptive sonic booms, featuring a unique elongated nose and an external vision system. This research will gather public re...

YouTube announced several new and updated features in October. Among them were a new sleep timer, a resizable miniplayer, and some visual improvements. The Alphabet-owned video streaming platform has now reportedly started rolling out a redesigned version of the playback speed box. This is said to allow users to control the playback speed more i...

Russia’s record-breaking launch from the Vostochny spaceport saw 53 satellites sent to orbit, including two Iranian satellites for imaging and communications and a joint satellite with Zimbabwe. A Soyuz-2.1b rocket was used for the mission, which took place on November 4, 2024, at 6:18 p.m. EST. Russia’s Ionosfera-M satellites were part of the ...

Motorola debuted its rollable concept device in 2023 and we’ve seen more development in this space in the past few months with bigger manufacturers getting involved. A new patent from Motorola suggests fresh details about the company's rollable Rizr concept. The Lenovo-owned brand appears to be planning to incorporate multiple fingerprint sensors...

Recent research in Nature Communications suggests that weak magnetic fields above Martian basins may stem from prolonged dynamo reversals, which reduce field strength over time. Through cooling models, scientists revealed that these reversing processes could account for Mars’s unique magnetic history, rather than indicating an early shutdown of t...

SpaceX’s Dragon is set to perform its first reboost of the International Space Station (ISS) on Nov. 8. This mission, conducted in partnership with NASA, is a step towards a future in which a larger Dragon spacecraft will play a crucial role in safely deorbiting the ISS when its mission concludes around 2030. Currently, reboosts are generally man...

The US wants to broaden cooperation and collaboration with India in space technology, particularly as it relates to militarisation of the 'final frontier' to deny common adversaries such as China, Major General Brian W Gibson said.

Amid growing concerns over Sunita Williams' health, NASA recently clarified that all the astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) are in "good health".

Primordial black holes, potentially formed shortly after the Big Bang, may be undergoing explosions across the universe, driven by Hawking radiation. Physicists believe that capturing these rare events could reveal undiscovered particles and fundamental physics. Dr. Marco Calzà and Dr. João G. Rosa from the University of Coimbra have proposed way...

NASA astronaut Sunita Williams, stranded on the ISS since early June due to Boeing’s Starliner malfunction, has sparked health concerns after a recent photo showed visible weight loss. Dr Vinay Gupta, a Seattle-based pulmonologist, highlighted signs of potential caloric deficit and physiological stress caused by prolonged time in space. Williams...
