The four volunteers who lived and worked in a simulated NASA Mars mission for more than a year will exit their habitat on Saturday, Oct. 31, after 378 days of isolation in a facility at the agency’s Johnson Space Center in Houston. Health and performance data collected from the simulation can help NASA develop methods […]
Rover tracks can be seen on the Martian surface, left behind by NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover.
How living underwater can prepare humans for space missions
NASA has officially ended the mission of its Swift Observatory, after a private satellite failed to meet up with the aging spacecraft in orbit.
NASA just gave us our best look yet at its Artemis III moon-lander test flight, which is scheduled to launch to Earth orbit next year. But a firm liftoff date has not yet been announced.

NASA has updated the timeline for its Artemis III mission and mapped out the expected progress for SpaceX and Blue Origin’s respective moon landers.
As NASA works to build the Moon Base, crewed and robotic lunar rovers will play a crucial role during early development through technology demonstrations, astronaut transport, terrain mapping, scientific investigations, and resource prospecting. Data from these early missions will inform future mobility systems and infrastructure needed for astronauts to live and work on the Moon. […]
Japan’s mission to Mars’ moons could answer a decades old question dividing the origins of Phobos and Deimos between two conflicting theories, and make history as the first spacecraft to return to Earth from orbit of the Red Planet.
