The Perseverance rover has arrived at what’s thought to be an ancient shoreline on Mars.

The amount of space junk will increase as we continue to launch objects into space, but there are ways to curb damage on the ground.

Saturn’s moon Enceladus has geysers shooting tiny grains of ice into space. These grains could hold traces of life − but researchers need the right tools to tell.

Where specialized algorithms fail to classify star-borne pulses, human volunteers with just a little training can step in.

Now out in space for more than two years, the James Webb Space Telescope is a stunningly sophisticated instrument.

A type of eclipse is crucial for measuring what’s in the atmospheres of planets orbiting distant stars.

An instrument on the Europa Clipper mission might be able to detect biological cells from space.

Your phone can’t take a perfectly clear picture of a solar eclipse like a professional camera can, but there are lots of other creative directions you can take to capture the rare moment.

Some ancient texts record what were likely dying stars, faintly visible from Earth. If close enough, these events can disturb telescopes and even damage the ozone layer.

Europa Clipper will contain a plaque that celebrates humanity’s relationship with water and a decades-old tradition of searching for life outside Earth.
