Could there be technosignatures created by a civilization on another planet that can be seen from Earth? And, could these technosignatures be even easier to identify than biosignatures? This image made available by NASA shows an illustration of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). (...
To say this mission constitutes a considerable technical challenge would be an understatement. Not only has humanity never flown a rocket on another planet, but we’ve never evenattemptedit. No matter what the outcome, once the MAV points its nose to the sky and lights its engines, history i...

It's not too often that you see an accident report for a vehicle on another planet, but such is the case with NASA providing some preliminary details from "the first aircraft accident investigation on another world." The first by NASA, anyway, as who knows if some intelligent beings on a...

There are several planets that will be easy to spot over the coming month. Saturn, for example, will be viewable in the evenings toward the south, and if you’re looking from the Americas, the planet will appear to have a close meetup withthe moonon November 10. “Check the sky again...
But even as InSight experienced a drop in power, it still collected new, unprecedented observations. In early May the robot detected a "monster" magnitude 5 marsquake, by far the strongest quake detected on Mars, and thestrongest temblor ever observed on another planet. ...
From NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, these four high resolution images show Earth and the major habitation sights of humans glowing from light pollution, showing where the cities and population centers are on the planet. The images focus on several regions but here we are focusing on four...
The cobalt blue of the Planet cut through the shards floating in Neptune's atmosphere and burst into a thousand lights. It'd be absolutely chill if it wasn't so cold. We were a lot more cautious this time, and snuck as close as we could before pouncing on the golden object. ...
The vast majority were detected via the transit method, in which a fleeting dip in starlight, repeated at regular intervals, indicates an orbiting planet. Telescopes in space and also on the ground are on the hunt for even more, especially planets ...
