A spectacular full moon will grace May Day skies, offering stargazers across North America the perfect excuse to look up at dusk. Even better news: May delivers two full moons this year, making the second one a rare blue moon.
After the successful Artemis II mission, Arizona State University scientists are already preparing for humanity's next giant leap: landing astronauts on the Moon in 2027. From training crews in lunar-like desert craters to guiding missions from Earth, Arizona is helping write the next chapter of space exploration.
China's space agency announced plans to share its lunar research station and space technologies with countries worldwide, marking a new era of collaborative space exploration. The commitment comes as China launches a five-year plan to transform its aerospace sector into an economic driver worth trillions of yuan.
Researchers have successfully grown and harvested chickpeas in fake moon dirt, bringing us closer to feeding astronauts on future lunar missions. This breakthrough could help make long-term space exploration possible.
Researchers from IIT-Kharagpur and PRL have finally explained why the moon's rocks contain up to nine times more titanium than Earth's volcanic rocks. Their breakthrough could help India's 2028 Chandrayaan-4 mission choose the perfect landing site to collect lunar samples.
For the first time ever, scientists are studying soil collected from the moon's mysterious far side. China delivered samples from its historic Chang'e-6 mission to Russian researchers who will unlock secrets about our lunar neighbor.
Ten scientists will help astronauts conduct groundbreaking research during humanity's return to the Moon's South Pole. They'll guide everything from rock collection to instrument deployment as we take our next giant leap toward Mars.
Four astronauts just returned from the first crewed Moon mission in 54 years, and NASA needs help analyzing the groundbreaking health data they collected. The space agency is offering $25,000 to researchers who can crack the challenge of studying how deep space affects the human body.
Chinese researchers used quantum sensors to analyze a single speck of lunar dust, revealing the moon once had its own magnetic field until 2 billion years ago. The breakthrough shows how tiny particles can unlock massive secrets about our cosmic neighbor's past.
Scientists discovered a fresh 222-meter crater on the Moon that formed in spring 2024, offering a rare glimpse of a cosmic impact caught almost in real time. The find lets researchers study what happens to the lunar surface before billions of years of weathering erase the evidence.
Navy researchers at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base need volunteers for a groundbreaking study that could help astronauts safely return to the Moon. The research examines motion sickness and how our bodies adapt to changing gravity, supporting NASA's Artemis program.
Smithsonian researchers discovered over 1,100 new ridges on the moon that reveal where future moonquakes might occur, helping NASA plan safer landing sites for astronauts returning to the lunar surface. The breakthrough could protect crews heading back to the moon as early as 2027.
Leading autism researchers and advocates formed a new independent committee to guide autism research priorities and counter recent federal changes. The group aims to unite the autism community and protect evidence-based research as funding reaches $568 million annually.
Scientists discovered that an ancient impact scattered rocks from deep inside the Moon right where future astronauts plan to land. These rare mantle rocks could reveal secrets about the Moon's earliest history.
NASA just announced three new scientific missions headed to the Moon to study its terrain, radiation, and inner heat. These experiments will help keep future astronauts safe and unlock secrets about how the Moon formed billions of years ago.
University of Alabama scientists developed the crucial navigation software that brought NASA's Artemis II crew safely home from the moon. Their breakthrough tool is now shaping the future of American space exploration.
A scientist who revolutionized protein research is now tackling science's reproducibility crisis with AI. His new approach could help researchers separate reliable studies from questionable ones, speeding up cures for diseases like Alzheimer's.
This Wednesday's full pink moon could mark the start of humanity's return to deep space after 50 years. Four astronauts are preparing to launch during a historic window that opens April 1.
Scientists now have access to an AI tool that filters through 150 years of research data to deliver trustworthy answers in seconds. CAS Newton helps researchers move from question to verified answer without drowning in information overload.
A new AI system from China's Zhejiang University just claimed the top spot on an international test for autonomous scientific research, beating out major competitors. The breakthrough shows how AI is getting better at thinking through complex research problems independently.
