What a difference a year makes! Today Hera’s asteroid mission for planetary defence is cruising through deep space on the far side of the Sun, headed to its final destination: the Didymos binary asteroid system. But a year ago, on 7 October 2024, it was unsure if the mission was ever going to take off at all.
Its launcher was grounded due to a launch anomaly and Hurricane Milton was closing on Cape Canaveral! The mission needed to lift off then and there because it had to perform a flyby of Mars to speed it on its

Space Force awards launch missions to SpaceX, ULA
Tuesday, 07 October 2025 07:55
The U.S. Space Force announced winning bids for missions, and SpaceX is the clear favorite.
Space Systems Command awarded seven National Security Space Launch contracts last week. Five of the missions were awarded to SpaceX for $714 million. United Launch Alliance got the other two, worth $428 million. Blue Origin didn't qualify because its New Glenn rocket still needs certification for na Shield or Spark? The U.S. Golden Dome and the New Missile Arms Race
Tuesday, 07 October 2025 07:55
The launch of the US 'Golden Dome' missile defence initiative has already set in motion ripple effects across the globe. Rival nations are considering their own layered missile defence architectures, and experts warn this may trigger a new era of competitive missile development. What began as a domestic shield is now fuelling a missile defence arms race, with competitors racing to counter, repli Sharper than ever: New algorithm brings the stars into greater focus

Johns Hopkins applied mathematicians and astronomers have developed a new method to render images from ground-based telescopes as clear as those taken from space, a process that stands to expand the benefits of Earth-based instruments.
Using algorithms that can strip away atmospheric interference, the researchers have made it possible for Earth-bound telescopes to produce some of the deepe We need a solar sail probe to detect space tornadoes earlier, more accurately

Spirals of solar wind can spin off larger solar eruptions and disrupt Earth's magnetic field, yet they are too difficult to detect with our current single-location warning system, according to a new study from the University of Michigan.
But a constellation of spacecraft, including one that sails on sunlight, could help find the tornado-like features in time to protect equipment on Earth a With new analysis, Apollo samples brought to Earth in 1972 reveal exotic sulfur hidden in Moon's mantle
Tuesday, 07 October 2025 07:55
When astronauts returned from NASA's final Apollo Moon mission in 1972, some of the samples they collected were sealed and carefully stored away in the hope that future researchers using advanced equipment might analyze them and make new discoveries.
Now, a research team led by a Brown University professor has done just that. In a study published in JGR: Planets, researchers report a sulfu Chinese astronauts complete fourth spacewalk of Shenzhou XX mission
