Second Space Resources Challenge: from concept to reality at LUNA
Friday, 24 October 2025 11:26
Last year, ESA invited innovators across Europe to join the second Space Resources Challenge, a competition designed to accelerate technologies that will help humankind live and work sustainably on the Moon.
Last week, that challenge culminated in a field test lasting several days at the ESA-DLR LUNA facility in Cologne, Germany, where eight teams demonstrated robotic systems capable of collecting and processing lunar soil, known as regolith. The participating teams came from six countries—Canada, Denmark, Germany, Luxembourg, Poland and the United Kingdom—highlighting the global collaboration driving forward lunar exploration.

Glass beads found on Moons far side reveal ancient meteor impact diversity
Friday, 24 October 2025 01:08
Researchers have examined over 400 glass particles collected from the far side of the Moon during the Change-6 mission, identifying 178 impact glass beads to analyze their microstructures and composition. These beads, formed from meteor impacts and subsequent regolith gardening, preserve physical and chemical details of the lunar surface's evolution.

Astronomers at the University of California, Irvine have discovered an exoplanet positioned in the habitable zone of its host star, where conditions may allow liquid water to exist on the surface.
This newly identified exoplanet is a super-Earth, several times more massive than our own planet, and potentially rocky. The planet, named GJ 251 c, orbits an M-dwarf star only about 18 light-yea Newly found rocky super-Earth could become key focus in search for life
