The GRB, called the Brightest Of All Time (or BOAT) may be powered by its strange jet structure, scientists say.

Understanding how and where solar winds originate is critical for forecasting solar storms and space weather.

The space agency has reportedly made outstanding progress on the Psyche project.

The age of darkness is over. The Epoch of Reionization has come.

United Launch Alliance carried out a static-fire test of its Vulcan Centaur rocket June 7, one of the final milestones before the vehicle’s first launch.

Few cosmic explosions have attracted as much attention from space scientists as the one recorded on October 22 last year and aptly named the Brightest of All Time (BOAT). The event, produced by the collapse ...

The above image may look like a piece of colourful, abstract art, but it is, in fact, a glimpse at the very heart of our galaxy. Most of us can’t even begin to imagine what lurks beyond our solar system,…

In the JWST version of the Hubble Deep Field, astronomers are discovering what galactic life was like in the earliest years of the universe.

The United Launch Alliance (ULA) succesfully test fired its Vulcan Centaur rocket at the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

NASA’s solar probe has gotten close enough to the sun’s surface — 13 million miles — to see granular features not visible from afar

Watch live as United Launch Alliance targets 6 p.m. EDT this evening for the first test firing of its new Vulcan Centaur rocket.

New simulations show that dying stars release enormous "cocoons" of gas that may rattle with space-time ripples called gravitational waves.

Massive, dying stars — behemoths tens of times the Sun's mass — should emit gravitational waves that we can hear with LIGO.

Hundreds of aerospace businesses will receive grant funding from NASA to accelerate their tech, with an overall investment of $45 million.

NASA will award funding to more than 200 small business teams to develop new technologies designed to protect the health of astronauts, lower risk of collision damage to spacecraft, and more. The new awards from NASA’s Small Business Innovation Research…

Boeing was sued on Wednesday by a Colorado company that accused the aerospace giant of stealing trade secrets for NASA's Space Launch System rocket, and then building components with "critical" safety flaws that could endanger astronauts.

Boeing has been accused in a bombshell lawsuit of making knock-off versions of patented tools for work on NASA rockets, allegedly leading to the leaks that delayed the historic Artemis I mission.

Kinks in the magnetic fields near the surface of the sun appear to be the cause of fast-moving flows in the solar wind.

The space agency has reportedly made outstanding progress on the Psyche project.

The SpaceX Dragon has docked with the International Space Station, beginning the 28th resupply mission for NASA. It carries an array of experiments, including IROSAs to increase the station's energy production, studies on thunderstorms, plant adaptations, and telomere behavior in…

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope discovered evidence of complex organic molecules in a galaxy 12.3 billion light-years away — the furthest and oldest ever detected.

There is only one way to experience lunar gravity while still on Earth: a parabolic airplane flight.

The Parker Solar Probe is providing NASA researchers with insights into how the sun accelerates particles to a million miles per hour.

The small spacecraft stared straight at the source of solar wind, likely uncovering the process that drives the violent bursts of plasma.

United Launch Alliance's first Vulcan Centaur rocket completed a critical test-firing of its Blue Origin-built BE-4 main engines Wednesday night, clearing one of two remaining technical hurdles before the launcher is cleared for its inaugural flight later this year.

SpaceX's 28th resupply mission to the International Space Station lifted off Monday from the Kennedy Space Center, carrying new solar arrays, fresh food, and experiments to sustain research and upgrade the power system on the orbiting laboratory.

Three Chinese astronauts departed the Tiangong space station Saturday and landed in the remote Gobi Desert of northwestern China, capping a six-month expedition that included four spacewalks and a host of experiments in the microgravity environment of low Earth orbit.

Using the sensitivity of the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have managed to detect a vast plume of water vapor spewing from the southern pole of Saturn’s moon Enceladus, a jet extending nearly 6,000 miles and feeding a previously detected…

Boeing and NASA officials said Thursday the first launch of astronauts on Boeing's delay-prone Starliner crew capsule won't happen in July after engineers recently discovered a problem with the spacecraft's parachute system and identified flammable tape around wiring harnesses inside…

A thick blanket of smoke produced by wildfires in Canada hangs over New York and other major cities in the U.S. Northeast in this image captured by Europe's Sentinel 3 satellite.

A new search for extraterrestrial life has scientists looking inward — toward the center of our galaxy.

Look North as the stars appear in June and July to have a chance of seeing rare noctilucent (or 'night-shining') clouds with the naked eye.

The U.S. Northeast woke up to a "horribly smoky day" on Wednesday (June 7) as a low-pressure system funnels toxic smoke from wildfires in Canada across the Atlantic Coast.

Using data collected by NASA's sun-touching Parker Solar Probe, scientists have tracked the "fast" solar wind back to showerhead-like funnels generated by coronal holes.
