There's a very cool experiment attached to a spacecraft on its way to a potentially metal asteroid. Late last year, NASA scientists pressed start on a highly anticipated space mission. Basically ...
A NASA experiment that sent a spacecraft slamming into the side of an asteroid may have sent debris flying into space, possibly into the path of Mars. The asteroid, named Dimorphos, was hit by ...
An asteroid is expected to come extremely close to the Earth on Thursday, skimming past us as it flies off into the cosmos. The asteroid, named 2024 GJ2, will zip past our planet at a distance of ...
NASA's proved in 2022 that humans could redirect 'city killer' asteroids away from Earth - but with unintended consequences that could put our planet in danger. A pair of Italian astronomers found ...
That was the message relieved NASA officials shared after the agency regained full contact with the Voyager 1 space probe, the most distant human-made object in the universe, scientists have ...
NASA is regularly announcing new discoveries and findings. Its research is consistent, and is conducted in space aboard the International Space Station and right here on Earth. Some of NASA’s ...
In September of 2022, NASA’s DART mission smashed into the astroid Dimorphos at 14,000 miles per hour to test the effects of asteroid deflection. Although the mission was a success, scientists ...
NASA's Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) resulted in the asteroid called Dimorphos being shattered and knocked off its original orbit, a groundbreaking mission that proved Earth has the ...
A detailed analysis of the Winchcombe meteorite has found evidence that its parent asteroid was altered by water before being ...
