A Powerhouse in Deep Space: Gateway’s Power and Propulsion Element

Since NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft intentionally slammed into the asteroid moonlet Dimorphos on Sept. 26 – altering its orbit by about 33 minutes – the investigation team has been digging into the implications of the effects of this planetary defense technique, should it need to be used in the future.

Since NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft intentionally slammed into the asteroid moonlet Dimorphos on Sept. 26 – altering its orbit by 33 minutes – the investigation team has been digging into the implications of how this planetary defense technique could be used in the future, if such a need should ever arise.

BioSentinel is one million miles away from Earth, orbiting the Sun. NASA invites the public to follow BioSentinel’s journey by virtually riding along with the CubeSat using a real-time 3D simulator.

A team led by researchers at the University of Montreal has found evidence that two exoplanets orbiting a red dwarf star are "water worlds," where water makes up a large fraction of the entire planet.

Scientists taking a “deep dive” into one of Webb’s iconic first images, the Cosmic Cliffs region of the Carina Nebula, have discovered dozens of energetic jets and outflows from young stars previously hidden by dust clouds.

Astronomers have made the most extensive study yet of how magnetically active stars are when they are young. This gives scientists a window into how X-rays from stars like the Sun, but billions of years younger, could partially or completely evaporate the atmospheres of planets orbiting them.

NASA’s Glenn Research Center invited four Cleveland Metropolitan School District FIRST Robotics teams to tour the center and see how robotics concepts apply in the real world.

Against an inky black backdrop, the blue swirls of barred spiral galaxy NGC 6956 stand out radiantly.
