Key Component for NASAs NEO Surveyor Returns to JPL
NASA's Near-Earth Object (NEO) Surveyor mission is on track for a planned launch in late 2027, with a major milestone recently achieved. A critical part of the spacecraft-its instrument enclosure-returned to the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Southern California in early March after completing rigorous environmental testing at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston.
The 12-foot (3.7-me Old Missions, New Discoveries: NASA's Data Archives Accelerate Science
Every NASA mission represents a leap into the unknown, collecting data that pushes the boundaries of human understanding. But the story doesn't end when the mission concludes. The data carefully preserved in NASA's archives often finds new purpose decades later, unlocking discoveries that continue to benefit science, technology, and society.

The initial image from Italy's IRIDE Earth observation mission was unveiled today, depicting a high-detail strip of the Italian peninsula, including Rome, at a resolution of 2.66 meters. This marks a threefold improvement over previous standard satellite data available for the region.
Captured by the Pathfinder Hawk microsatellite on March 5, 2025, the image was taken during a pass over ce York U research sheds light on earliest days of Earth's formation
New research led by a York University professor sheds light on the earliest days of the Earth's formation and potentially calls into question some earlier assumptions in planetary science about the early years of rocky planets. Establishing a direct link between the Earth's interior dynamics occurring within the first 100 million years of its history and its present-day structure, the work is on How survivors spanned the globe after Earth's biggest mass extinction
Scientists don't call it the "Great Dying" for nothing. About 252 million years ago, upward of 80% of all marine species vanished during the end-Permian mass extinction - the most extreme event of its kind in Earth's history.
What followed was a mysterious, multimillion-year span that could be called the "Great Dulling," when marine animal communities looked Skyloom completes OCT hardware deliveries for SDA York mission
