Scientists have produced the most detailed three-dimensional map yet of stellar nurseries within our galaxy, using data from the European Space Agency's Gaia mission. The new model reveals how massive young stars interact with interstellar clouds, transforming our understanding of star-forming environments. Studying stellar birthplaces has always been challenging, since thick gas and dust

Interstellar objects such as 3I/ATLAS, when captured in the planet-forming discs of young stars, may serve as the building blocks of giant planets, offering a solution to a long-standing problem in planet formation theory. These wandering asteroid- and comet-like bodies are ejected from their home systems and drift through interstellar space, occasionally crossing into other star systems.

The second launch of Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket, carrying a NASA smallsat mission to Mars, is now expected in late October or early November.

SAN FRANCISCO – British startup Space Forge and U.S.-based United Semiconductors announced an agreement Sept.

The NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope has revealed a colourful array of massive stars and glowing cosmic dust in the Sagittarius B2 (Sgr B2) molecular cloud, the most massive and active star-forming region in our Milky Way galaxy.

A Falcon 9 launched a “cosmic carpool” of spacecraft for NASA and NOAA Sept.

Gathering datasets about our soil, from the ground, the air and from space, is part of the robust preparation for these two new European satellites set to extend the capabilities of the Copernicus family of Sentinel missions.
