NASA and Freelancer announced on 15 August the 25 finalists in the “Moon Mascot: Artemis II ZGI Design Challenge.” The toy chosen will float inside Orion once microgravity begins.
Shubhanshu Shukla is the second Indian to travel to space and the first to visit the ISS. He spent 19 days there, conducting scientific experiments crucial to India’s Gaganyaan mission.
NASA has found that almost 70 percent of astronauts on long missions report changes in their eyesight. The issue doesn’t just vanish after landing. Some effects can last for years.
In the short clip, Shukla sits cross-legged and floats gently, trying to stay still. His arms hover, and his body drifts slightly with every movement.
NASA has listed the five largest dangers to humans in space. The difficulties are categorised under the term "RIDGE".
“Joy” was selected to represent the shared values of the astronauts’ home countries and their joint return to human spaceflight.
On 15 May, Musk said Starship could lift off for Mars by the end of 2026. That flight will carry Tesla’s humanoid robot, Optimus. It’s a test before sending humans as early as 2029.
The finding was by a group of researchers from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and in partnership with scientists from across India and Saudi Arabia.
Led by Dr. Keith Siew at UCL’s Department of Renal Medicine, the research studied over 40 past space missions. The team analysed findings from astronauts aboard the ISS and combined them with simulation data from 20 research studies.
Pettit, along with Russian astronauts Alexei Ovchinin and Ivan Vagner, touched down near Zhezkazgan, Kazakhstan.
Blue Origin launched its 11th human spaceflight on Monday morning, sending six women past the edge of space aboard its fully automated New Shepard capsule.
From West Texas, Blue Origin launched its first all-female crew, making it a moment of pride for women across the globe.
A team of four astronauts took the first X-ray of a human hand in space as they floated high above our planet, making medical history.
Four private astronauts aboard SpaceX's Fram2 mission have accomplished a rare achievement, flying around the Earth from pole to pole, and taking stunning photos of Antarctica from space.
NASA astronauts Sunita Williams, Butch Wilmore and Nick Hague recounted their experiences upon returning after an extended nine-month sojourn on the International Space Station due to delays caused by Boeing Starliner. They spoke of challenges, lessons, and hopes for the future of space flights.
NASA astronauts on Crew-9 are poised to discuss their mission. They will discuss their experiences in a post-flight press conference on March 31.
Astronaut Sunita Williams returns to Earth after an unexpected 9-month stay on the International Space Station, and will undergo a 45-day rehabilitation program to readjust to Earth's gravity.
Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore, along with a fellow NASA astronaut and a Russian cosmonaut, returned to Earth aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft. We talked to doctors to understand the health impact the astronauts are likely to face after staying in space for over 9 months.
After months in space, Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore are finally coming home. But what happens to astronauts when they return to Earth? From muscle loss to vision changes, space travel takes a toll on the human body. Watch as we break down the health challenges astronauts face and the science behind their recovery.
Wilmore and Williams have been on the International Space Station (ISS) since June. They were part of Boeing Starliner’s first crewed flight, but technical problems left the spacecraft unable to bring them back.
NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore are finally heading back to Earth after a prolonged 9-month stay at the International Space Station (ISS).
Astronauts rely on complex oxygen supply systems to survive in space, where oxygen is scarce.
NASA astronaut Sunita Williams is finally set to return home after an unplanned nine-month stay in space.
SpaceX cancels Starship test flight due to technical concerns, with Elon Musk citing 'too many question marks' about the launch.
NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore are set to return to Earth in late March after an extended stay on the International Space Station, following technical issues with the Boeing Starliner spacecraft.
