NASA’s automated asteroid tracking system has spotted a total of six near-Earth objects that are expected to fly past the planet this week. One of the approaching asteroids is almost as big as the Great Pyramid of Giza.

NASA is currently looking into the idea of exploring the icy moons of Jupiter and Saturn using steam-powered robots. According to the agency, the unique design of the robots will enable them to explore the moons without affecting its environmental conditions.

A satellite orbiting the Moon captured the amazing moment when a total solar eclipse occurred. The photos taken by the satellite show the cosmic phenomenon from the Moon’s perspective.

An annual cosmic phenomenon known as the Summer Triangle has once again appeared in the sky as the summer season rolls in. This is a cosmic pattern that’s formed by three stars from different constellations.

An experiment proposed about 50 years ago has finally able to prove that energy can be extracted from a black hole.

NASA’s automated asteroid tracker is currently monitoring five near-Earth objects that are expected to fly past the planet this weekend.

Eyewitnesses from different parts of the U.S. were able to capture videos of a fireball streaking across the sky and exploding mid-air.

A team of scientists explained how Jupiter’s icy moon Europa might have produced its interior layers and subsurface oceans.

NASA has spotted two small asteroids that are expected to fly past Earth soon.

The smaller object’s mass places it in the so-called “mass gap,” which is between the heaviest known neutron stars and the lightest known black holes.

NASA has unveiled the name of the asteroid that will be the focus of its upcoming planetary defense mission. The asteroid’s name was selected in preparation for a potentially Earth-saving mission.

Meteorologists have confirmed that a massive dust cloud nicknamed Godzilla is currently headed for the U.S. According to experts, the dust cloud came from the Sahara desert and is the largest ever recorded in 50 years.

NASA recently shared a beautiful image of a rich star-forming region located in a distant constellation. According to the agency, the image can be considered as a teaser for the types of photos that will be captured by the James Webb Space Telescope.

Videos taken during SpaceX’s latest Starship test revealed the powerful explosion of the prototype spacecraft’s fuel tank. The component was deliberately destroyed by the company in order to test its limits.

NASA’s automated asteroid tracking system has spotted two near-Earth objects that are currently approaching the planet. According to the data collected by the agency, one of the asteroids will approach Earth from a distance that’s almost equivalent to that between the Earth and the Moon.

Days before the world celebrates Asteroid Day, the European Space Agency (ESA) unveiled the various programs it is currently working on that are focused on protecting the planet from an impact event caused by a near-Earth object.

SpaceX has opened the registration for the beta testing of its space-based Internet service via the company’s Starlink satellites. The company is most likely rolling out the service’s beta test in preparation for a possible commercial launch soon.

NASA’s automated asteroid tracking system has detected three massive asteroids that are expected to approach Earth this week. One of the approaching asteroids is classified as potentially hazardous.

An organization based in England hosted a live streaming event from the iconic Stonehenge to show the sunrise and sunset of the recent summer solstice. The event was live-streamed due to the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic.

NASA detected an asteroid as big as a building that’s about to fly past Earth. According to the data collected by the agency, the incoming asteroid is expected to intersect the planet’s orbit during its upcoming visit.

A massive asteroid almost as big as the Eiffel Tower in Paris is expected to fly past Earth within the next couple of days, according to the data collected by NASA. Due to the asteroid’s size and orbit, it has been labeled as potentially hazardous.
