The Blue Ghost lander, a spacecraft from Firefly Aerospace, captured a stunning image of a solar eclipse from the Moon's surface. The photo showcases a unique ring effect, where the Earth almost entirely blocks the Sun. This phenomenon is known as the diamond ring effect, and it's a sight to behold.
NASA has just launched an exciting new mission to keep an eye on the Sun's behavior. This mission, called PUNCH, uses four small satellites working together. These satellites give us a 3D view of the Sun's outer layer, known as the corona. This is a big deal because it helps us understand and predic
The SpaceX Crew-10 mission is all set to blast off from Kennedy Space Center’s Launch Complex 39A at 7:49 PM ET tonight. The weather is looking good. The Dragon spacecraft will be carried into orbit by a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket. It will meet up with the ISS around 6:00 AM ET on March 13th. T
In the realm of skin cancer, basal cell carcinoma (BCC) tops the list as the most frequent malignant tumor in white populations. This type of cancer is driven by the abnormal activation of the Hedgehog signaling pathway. The good news is that this pathway can be blocked, offering a promising target
In the vast expanse of space, Earth is constantly at risk from rogue asteroids. These space rocks have caused massive destruction in the past. The dinosaurs, for instance, were wiped out by a massive asteroid impact around 66 million years ago. This event, known as the Chicxulub impact, caused an "i
Two astronauts, Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore, are spending nearly a year in space due to technical issues. They were originally planned to spend a week in space but have been stuck there for nine months. The human body goes through many changes in space. Gravity is different in space.
NASA's SPHEREx and PUNCH missions faced a launch delay due to poor weather conditions and technical issues. These missions were set to launch together from California's Vandenberg Space Force Base. The launch window had a mere 20% chance of favorable weather, leading to a decision to postpone. This
On Monday night, California's Vandenberg Space Force Base will be buzzing with excitement. This is where two big NASA missions are set to blast off on a single rocket. The main attraction is SPHEREx, a fancy space telescope. It will snap pictures of the entire sky in over a hundred colors that our e
On Mars, the Perseverance rover did something unusual to uncover hidden secrets. Instead of drilling or scraping, it pressed down on a pile of rock fragments, flattening them out. This simple act revealed important clues about the planet's past. The rover's SHERLOC instrument, which analyzes mineral
