Mission control at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) in Laurel, Maryland, announced the successful impact at 7.14 p.m. EDT on Monday.

NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART), a first such mission, was set to impact its target asteroid -- which poses no threat to Earth -- at 7.14 p.m. on Monday (4.44 a.m. on Tuesday IST).

NASA said that during a meeting late on Saturday, "teams decided to stand down on preparing for the Tuesday launch date to allow them to configure systems for rolling back the Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft to the Vehicle Assembly Building".

The blueprint covers four broad areas: science; transportation and habitation; lunar and Martian infrastructure; and operations.

A new paper published in Nature Geoscience details the impacts, which ranged between 85 and 290 kms from InSight's location, a region of Mars called Elysium Planitia.

The telescope provides a unique perspective with its infrared sensitivity on Mars, complementing data being collected by orbiters, rovers, and other telescopes

NASA and Google will develop advanced machine learning-based algorithms that link space data with Google Earth Engine data streams to generate high-resolution air quality maps in near real-time.

Orbital debris consists of human-made objects orbiting Earth that no longer serve a purpose, including mission-related and fragmentation debris, nonfunctional spacecraft, and abandoned rocket stages.

NASA said that it adjusted the targeted dates for a cryogenic demonstration test and the next launch opportunities for Artemis I.

NASA Headquarters plans to house this initial interactive display with goals to expand in person and virtual access over the next five years.

Cape Canaveral: NASA’s new moon rocket sprang another dangerous fuel leak Saturday, forcing launch controllers to call off their second attempt to send a crew capsule into lunar orbit with test dummies. The first attempt earlier in the week was also marred by escaping hydrogen, but those leaks were elsewhere on the 322-foot rocket, the […]

So, what is this trend all about and who started it? Well, the Twitter trend that blew exponentially was started by Amtrak, a passenger railroad service that provides inter-city rail service in the United States and Canada.

A newly-discovered hacking campaign is exploiting an image from the James Webb Telescope to infect targets with malware.

The exoplanet called 'HIP 65426 b' is a gas giant, meaning it has no rocky surface and could not be habitable.

The spaceflight, designated as Axiom Mission 2 (Ax-2), will launch from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida and travel to the space station.

Artemis I will not carry astronauts, nor land on the moon, however, the mission is critical to demonstrating that NASA's monster rocket and deep space capsule can deliver on their promised abilities.

Washington: NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured the first-ever clear evidence for carbon dioxide in the atmosphere of a planet outside the solar system. The finding, to be published in the journal Nature, offers hope that in the future, Webb may be able to detect and measure carbon dioxide in the thinner atmospheres of smaller […]

New Delhi: NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured new stunning images of Jupiter that will give scientists even more clues to the planet’s inner life. With giant storms, powerful winds, auroras, and extreme temperature and pressure conditions, Jupiter has a lot going on. In the standalone view of Jupiter, created from a composite of several […]

Hyderabad: A few thousand years ago, humans were trying to make wheels and spark a fire from stones without any knowledge about what lies beyond a few miles. Today, forget about miles, we are aware of what lies beyond this planet. Recent declarations by NASA suggest that they have picked up sound waves from space. […]

Washington: The US space agency has identified 13 candidate landing regions near the lunar south pole, as it prepares to send humans back to the Moon under the Artemis programme in 2024. Each region contains multiple potential landing sites for Artemis III, which will be the first of the Artemis missions to bring crew to the […]
