Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket failed to place AST SpaceMobile’s BlueBird 7 satellite in its designated low-Earth orbit, rendering it unusable. The Federal Aviation Administration has grounded the rocket and ordered a mishap investigation.

NASA’s Artemis II astronauts safely splashed down in the Pacific after a historic 10-day mission around the Moon, marking humanity’s return to deep space after over 50 years and paving the way for future lunar exploration missions.

NASA’s Artemis II mission is nearing completion after astronauts travelled farther than any humans in history during a lunar flyby. The Orion spacecraft is set to splash down in the Pacific Ocean, marking a milestone in humanity’s return to deep-space exploration.

NASA launched the Artemis II mission from Florida, sending four astronauts on the first crewed flight around the Moon in over 50 years. The mission will test Orion’s deep-space capabilities and pave the way for future lunar landings and eventual human missions to Mars.

NASA’s Artemis II mission is set to launch four astronauts on a 10-day journey around the moon without landing, marking the first human voyage beyond low Earth orbit since Apollo 17 in 1972. The mission will pave the way for a planned moon landing in 2028 under Artemis IV.

NASA successfully completed a second fueling test of its Artemis II Space Launch System rocket at Kennedy Space Center, addressing prior hydrogen leaks, as engineers assess March launch readiness for the first lunar crewed mission since Apollo 17

A rare planetary alignment will grace the skies over Telangana this month, peaking on February 28. Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus, and Jupiter will appear in a single row shortly after sunset, visible even without telescopes.

A SpaceX capsule delivered four astronauts to the International Space Station, restoring full crew strength after a medical evacuation prompted an early return. NASA had paused spacewalks and reduced research during the short-staffed period

NASA’s Perseverance rover has successfully completed its first Mars drives planned entirely by artificial intelligence, marking a major step in autonomous space exploration and showcasing how generative AI can safely navigate complex extraterrestrial terrain.

NASA prepares for Artemis II, a historic crewed lunar flyby on February 6, 2026. Astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen will test Orion spacecraft and life-support systems, orbiting the Moon before returning to Earth
