NASA’s nuclear Dragonfly copter to search for signs of life on Titan: ‘A lot’s riding on it’

Trump Has All the Cards to Shatter Iran from the Inside

Fifty kilometres above Venus, pressure and temperature become surprisingly Earth-like and ordinary breathable air could keep a habitat afloat, but living there would mean building a sealed world inside sulphuric-acid clouds

Would Putin Attack NATO? The Incursion Everyone Fears Is the One Move That Costs Moscow Most

NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, launching on a Falcon Heavy on 30 August 2026, carries a mirror the size of Hubble's but sees a patch of sky about a hundred times wider, built mainly to map dark energy and hunt for planets

Titan has four seasons much like Earth's, but there is one very strange catch to them: because Saturn takes about 29 years to circle the Sun, a single season on Titan drags on for roughly seven Earth years

Later this decade NASA plans to launch Dragonfly, a car-sized nuclear-powered drone that will fly from site to site across Saturn's moon Titan - the only world besides Earth with rivers, lakes and rain, though there the rain is liquid methane

Iran Just Pulled Off a Strategic Master Stroke in the Strait of Hormuz and Now in the Red Sea

Iran has closed the Strait of Hormuz and the Bab al-Mandeb, sparking international tension and threats of conflict in the Red Sea and Caspian Sea.

In 1977, NASA launched two probes designed to last five years. Voyager 1 and 2 are now the only human-made objects in interstellar space, still operating, still transmitting, funded by a team of engineers some of whom have worked on the mission for nearly

Launched in 1977 for a five-year mission, NASA's Voyager 1 and 2 remain the only human-made objects in interstellar space and are still transmitting data.

NASA's Psyche spacecraft, on its way to a metal-rich asteroid, used Mars as a gravitational slingshot in May 2026, skimming just 2,800 miles above the planet to gain the speed it needed

NASA's Psyche spacecraft has completed a high-speed Mars flyby to accelerate toward a metal-rich asteroid potentially worth quadrillions of dollars.

NASA is keeping Voyager 1 alive by switching off instruments and heaters one by one—but it cannot let the spacecraft become so cold that its fuel lines freeze. If those lines fail, Voyager could lose the thrusters that keep its antenna aimed at Earth, per

NASA is managing a critical power decline for Voyager 1 as it approaches a historic distance milestone from Earth.

NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, due to launch in August 2026, is expected to discover around 100,000 exoplanets in a single mission — more than every telescope in the history of astronomy combined

NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope set to launch in August 2026

The Voyager 1 probe, launched in 1977, is now so far from Earth that a radio signal travelling at the speed of light takes over 22 hours to reach it, and it is still sending data back from interstellar space on a power source the size of a car battery

Voyager 1 launched in 1977 on a four-year mission, and in November 2026, nearly half a century later, it will become the first object ever to reach one light-day from Earth — so distant that a signal now takes a full 24 hours to cross the emptiness back h

Soviet spacecraft built to land on Venus in 1972 spent 53 years orbiting Earth and finally returned witho

The Soviet Union launched nearly 30 spacecraft at Venus and became the only nation ever to land on its surface and send back pictures — color photographs of a scorched volcanic plain under a yellow-green sky, shot in the few dozen minutes before the heat

A Claim to Lead, a Hesitation to Act: Germany’s New Military Strategy

Germany unveils new military strategy amid rising tensions with Russia

Target Moscow: The Ukraine War Has Come Right to Putin’s Doorstep

A spacecraft no larger than a small car, launched the year Star Wars came out, is still moving outward at 38,000 miles per hour far beyond the orbit of Pluto — and the radio signals it sends home, traveling at the speed of light, now take more than 23 hou
