NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Blue Origin’s New Glenn Mission NG-2 launched a second mission from Cape Canaveral Thursday, carrying NASA’s twin ESCAPADE spacecraft to Mars. The spacecraft is expected to reach the Red Planet by 2027. The launch was previously delayed due to extreme solar activity and bad weather. This launch…
Blue Origin has postponed the much-anticipated launch of its New Glenn rocket carrying NASA’s twin ESCAPADE probes to Mars. Originally scheduled for Sunday, 9 November 2025, the launch was called off due to unfavourable weather conditions at Cape Canaveral’s Launch Complex 36. This delay comes just one day before new federal restrictions for commercial spaceflights…
A mysterious image circulating online has renewed worldwide fascination with the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, one of the universe’s rarest celestial visitors. The image, allegedly released by Japan’s space agency, is said to show the most realistic depiction of the comet so far, based on imaging and spectral data. Although its authenticity has not been confirmed…
New satellite observations reveal a subtle but significant change in Earth’s reflectivity, suggesting that the planet is absorbing more solar energy than before. This phenomenon, known as darkening, reflects an imbalance between the northern and southern hemispheres, with the north losing brightness more rapidly. According to a study published in Proceedings of the National Academy…
NASA administrator nominee Jared Isaacman has sparked a renewed debate over the agency’s core mission, arguing that NASA should shift away from developing its own rockets and instead focus on “the near impossible” — breakthroughs that private companies are not currently pursuing. In a recent interview, Isaacman said NASA’s role should be to pioneer technologies…
For decades, scientists believed that gold and other heavy elements were born from the cataclysmic collision of neutron stars. These rare events, observed across the cosmos, seemed to provide the intense conditions required to forge such elements. However, new findings from NASA and the European Space Agency suggest that another, far more frequent process might…
Elon Musk’s SpaceX has responded to growing concerns from NASA about the readiness of its Starship rocket for lunar missions. On 30 October 2025, the company announced that it had submitted a “simplified” mission plan to NASA aimed at sending humans to the Moon safely and efficiently. In a detailed blog post, SpaceX explained that…
NASA has taken a major step toward transforming the future of high-speed travel. In a successful first flight over the Southern California desert, the agency’s experimental X-59 aircraft demonstrated that breaking the sound barrier does not have to come with the signature explosive sonic boom. Instead, the jet is engineered to produce only a soft…
A team of international astronomers have discovered three Earth-sized planets orbiting two stars, in what researchers are calling a laboratory for studying planet formation.The finding, announced Friday in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics, centers around the binary star system TOI-2267, located approximately 190 light-years from Earth. What makes this discovery particularly remarkable is that it…
@vantortech on X (formerly Twitter) A recent post on X by VantorTech has captured global attention after revealing an incredibly detailed image of the NASA-ISRO NISAR satellite. The post, shared on October 16, 2025, featured the satellite’s massive radar antenna deployed in space, accompanied by a caption that described it as “the most powerful radar…
