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

Imagine flying from New York to Los Angeles in just a few hours. That's the dream that Boom Supersonic is chasing. On February 10, their experimental jet, the XB-1, zoomed through the sky faster than the speed of sound. This wasn't just any flight; it was a big deal because it showed that supersonic
