The mission to return Martian samples back to Earth will use a European 2.5 meter-long robotic arm to pick up tubes filled with precious soil from Mars and transfer them to a rocket for an historic interplanetary delivery.

We use passive gas tracer particles in an Arepo simulation of a dwarf spiral galaxy to relate the Lagrangian evolution of star-forming gas parcels and their H2 molecules to the evolution of their host giant molecular clouds.

NASA has selected nine space technologies for flight testing to advance innovations that address mission needs for both the agency and the commercial space industry.

NASA is planning to test the nuclear-powered rocket by 2027. If successful, It could allow humans to reach Mars in 45 days.

Headlines spun out of control when it came to new research results on the Earth’s core. In other news, narwhals have had it with noisy neighbors.

A galaxy whose light has traveled nearly 13.5 billion years to reach us has just been confirmed as the earliest galaxy found to date.

A quartet of researchers at Pennsylvania State University has assessed differing weathering conditions around the globe in an attempt to better understand the rate-limiting factors for major rock types.

Nature Human Behaviour - Facilitating system-level behavioural climate action using computational social science

Scientists on the hunt for a previously undetected type of gravitational waves believe they are getting close and have refined techniques to use in upcoming observational runs. Researchers from the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration outlined the most sensitive se…

NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter snapped a photo of an unusually mammalian structure on our dusty red neighbor. Definitely looks like a bear.

The failure of the Geotail's final data recorder has forced its mission to end after 31 years in orbit.

The speed of environmental change is very challenging for wild organisms. When exposed to a new environment individual plants and animals can potentially adjust their biology to better cope with new pressures they are exposed to—this is known as phenotypic pl…

The European Space Agency is using a unique robotic arm to bring back Martian samples to Earth collected by the Mars Perseverance rover.

Science News: A comet is streaking back our way after 50,000 years. The dirty snowball last visited during Neanderthal times, according to NASA. It will come within

A circuit running from CamKIIα-positive neurons of the medial preoptic area to the ventral periaqueductal gray induces exploration of a fear-conditioned place and facilitates fear extinction in mice.

A team of researchers from Fudan University and Université de Lorraine has built a model that can predict the wrinkle patterns that will develop on toroidal structures if they expand or contract. In their paper published in the journal Physical Review Letters…

A comet is streaking back our way after 50,000 years.

Since the focus on Martian exploration ramped up in the mid-1990s, most of the familiarity…

Across the board, we’re seeing less big scientific breakthroughs. So what’s going on?

Smart materials are materials that have the ability to change their properties in response to specific external stimuli, such as temperature, humidity, light, or applied stress. One of the most well-known examples of smart materials is shape memory alloy (SMA…

AstroForge is developing mineral refining tech it hopes will allow it to extract precious metals from asteroids and return them to Earth.
