Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon and commander of Apollo 11, said the United States risks squandering 5 decades of space research, work, and accomplishments, if the nation does not find ways to restore hope and confidence in NASA, as part of a unified sense of purpose on space exploration.
It Will Rain by Bruno Mars will be the first song from the upcoming soundtrack for The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1, the film's studio Summit Entertainment said on Thursday.
Astronauts in space are exposed to a newly identified medical condition, something that NASA should consider seriously. It is the blurring vision of some of the astronauts who have spent months in space that has made NASA think about possible impacts it may have on long-term space trips.
In a preparation for future space exploration, a group of NASA's diving crew will live in Aquarius underwater research laboratory located near Key Largo, Florida during October.
A new rock called Chester Lake identified by NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity is the new object of speculation that might provide more evidence about the presence of water on the red planet.
NASA has announced plans for the world's largest and most powerful rocket that would be capable of launching astronauts to asteroids and eventually to Mars.
NASA is all set to come up with a $30 billion rocket that will eventually carry astronauts to the Mars, said the agency on Wednesday.
While on its mission to study rocks on Mars to get clues to an early wet environment, NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity is examining second rock since its landing on the new site, the Endeavour crater, in August.
NASA is working on a 320-feet multi-billion-dollar Space Launch System (SLS), which is also the world's largest rocket, aiming to explore nearby asteroid around 2025 and then on to Mars in the 2030s.
The rovers Spirit and Opportunity contain shields emblazoned with American flags that NASA said was constructed as a memorial to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
There might not be a concrete known plan or date as to when the human beings can finally go to mars and come, but its certain that getting there and getting back is going to take years. And that would obviously require some food along the way.
After seven years of roaming the Red Planet, the indestructible Mars Rover Opportunity has begun exploring the rim of a huge Martian crater and found rocks that hint of ancient hot water and chemicals that haven't been seen in such quantity.
Mars Rover Opportunity got a second wind and has discovered a rock that is different from any rock ever seen on Mars, said Steve Squyres, principal investigator for Opportunity at Cornell University.
Researchers with the European Space Agency has announced that after about seven years orbiting Mars, its Mars Express satellite has stumbled on a rare find — an ancient Martian lake.
Scientists announced on Friday that a satellite orbiting Mars has discovered that a huge crater on the red planet was once a water-filled lake.
The European Space Agency's Mars Express satellite has been orbiting Mars since around 2003, but it has just stumbled on a rare find that scientists believe is a glimpse into wetter days on the Red Planet. The satellite found evidence that a huge crater on Mars was once a water-filled lake, and ESA said the rare find was revealed by the presence of a delta, which is an ancient fan-shaped deposit of dark sediments, laid down in water.
A satellite orbiting Mars has found evidence that a huge crater on the Red Planet was once a water-filled lake and striking new images of the surface has been released. The new images were captured by the European Space Agency's Mars Express satellite, which have been orbiting Mars since 2003.
Opportunity, the resilient Mars rover that has been exploring the planet for seven years now, recently arrived at the massive Endeavour crater and discovered rocks that hint at an ancient water source and a once warmer plant.
NASA's Mars Exploration Robotic Rover Opportunity has reached the Red Planet's Endeavour crater, and the first rock it examined itself is creating waves among astronomers.
A Global Exploration Roadmap that will introduce a 25-year scenario for visits beyond Earth orbit is being drawn up by Nasa and their counterparts around the world. The destination?
Pre-packaged food rations may not be adequate to sustain the first manned mission to mars, scientists claim. Experts believe that kitchen Vegetable gardens will give the crew a healthier diet and produce more oxygen onboard.
Nuclear energy could find a second life on the moon and Mars.
