Due to launch in the early 2030s, NASA's DAVINCI mission will investigate whether Venus - a sweltering world wrapped in an atmosphere of noxious gases - once had oceans and continents like Earth.
Consisting of a flyby spacecraft and descent probe, DAVINCI will focus on a mountainous region called Alpha Regio, a possible ancient continent. Though a handful of international spacecraft plunge

Recent observations from NASA's IXPE (Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer) mission have provided new insights into the shape of black hole coronae, previously only understood through theoretical models. A corona is a plasma region involved in the matter flow toward a black hole, and the IXPE's findings mark the first time its shape has been directly identified.

Sierra Space has secured a contract from NASA to develop and test its Trash Compaction and Processing System (TCPS) aboard the International Space Station by late-2026.
This new system is designed to play a key role in future space missions by improving waste management, stowage, and water reclamation on long-duration trips, including human missions to the Moon and Mars. The TCPS will help

ESA has signed a euro 63 million contract with OHB Italia SpA to initiate preparatory work for its proposed Ramses mission, which aims to study the asteroid Apophis.
On 13 April 2029, Apophis, a 375-meter-wide asteroid, will pass just 32,000 kilometers from Earth - closer than a tenth of the distance to the Moon. This rare event offers a critical chance for scientific research and advance
