The surprise teaser came just six days before the agency and its partners, the European Space Agency and the Canadian Space Agency, plan toroll out the first batchof real, full-color images on July 12. Despite NASA administrator Bill Nelson's announcement that the cache will include the deepe...
PUNCH will capture continuous, high-resolution images of the solar corona and its transition into the heliosphere, the vast bubble of charged particles that envelops our solar system. This will allow scientists to better understand how solar material moves through space, particularly during coronal ma...

The discovery of the compounds around IRAS 2A is particularly interesting because these protostars, a lot like the sun, would have 4.6 billion years ago in its infancy before the formation of the planets. That means the discovery of these icy compounds may help confirm that the vital ingredient...
We’ve been just enjoying looking through images from space. Courtesy of Nasa.gov–That’s a rocket being launched! How cool! You can find amazing images from outer space, viewing the sky and planets in new ways, along with astronauts, rocket launches, events at NASA, and more. We even...
Asteroid 2024 YR4 no longer poses a real threat to Earth, though it still has a slim chance of hitting the Moon in 2032. NASA is using the event to refine its planetary defense strategies and gather more data with advanced telescopes. Credit: SciTechDaily.com ...
to take pictures of asteroids and comets and planets, and to analyze them by separating the colors reflected from them with a machine called a spectrograph. But to do a real thorough analysis, they need to get pieces of these things back to Earth, to subject them to tests in ...
mission's entry, descent and landing (EDL). Anticipating this problem, a pair of cubesats, called Mars Cube One (or MarCO-A and MarCO-B), launched with InSight to watch over the lander as it entered the Martian atmosphere to beam the EDL telemetry data back to Earth in near real time...
Thevideowas then downloaded and each frame was sent to NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California, where it was played in real time. "Despite transmitting from millions of miles away, it was able to send the video faster than most broadband internet connections," Ryan Rogalin, th...
in real time! The NASA app is still my go-to when first waking up to set the tone for my day by putting life’s challenges in perspective. And I love seeing super high res images of our Earth and majesty of the universe. more Developer Response , We have just released an updated...
