According to scientists, all of the key elements of our DNA have now been discovered on meteorites. What exactly does this mean? Simply put, life on Earth might have originated in space. Over the previous century, space rocks that crashed on our …
If we send a crewed spaceship to Mars right now and it lands in a large canyon and starts exploring, they'll find a massive deposit of water. The ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) mission discovered "large volumes of water" in the red plan…
Five friends in Arizona planned to send a GoPro, a camcorder, and a phone up in a weather balloon to record some footage of space. Bryan Chan, Ved Chirayath, Ashish Goel, Paul Tarantino, and Tyler Reid, all college students, built their gadget, calcul…
NASA have just announced that Jupiter’s Moon IO has started to send the Juno probe messages. Today, we take a look at Jupiter’s Moon IO and how it’s suddenly started sending messages to the Juno probe. Scientists are making exciting discoveries at an…
The human brain is capable of creating structures in up to 11 dimensions, according to scientists. According to a study published in Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, the Human brain can deal and create in up to 11 dimensions. According to…
This week, NASA presented the first full-color photographs captured by its James Webb space telescope, and the results are astonishing. While it is easy to be captivated by the clarity of the photos that the newly activated James Webb telescope is ca…
Just imagine that future humans may be able to travel to distant planets and discover... more humans. According to one astrobiologist at the University of Cambridge, that possibility may be more realistic than you think. In a new interview with the BB…

Ground-based telescopes delivered the first real-time view of a red supergiant star's death throes. While they are neither the brightest nor most massive stars, they are the biggest in terms of volume. An artist’s rendition of a red supergiant sta…
Consider this the next time you pick up a "fresh" glass of water: some of the molecules in that water are billions of years old - much older than the solar system itself. This seems impossible at first: how could water on Earth predate the s…
The celestial body most similar to Earth in the solar system was visited by the Huygens probe after a journey of more than 7 years. What did it find when it landed there? Artist's impression of methane rich lakes on the Farthest World where a huma…
Over 200 million Americans saw the August 2017 total solar eclipse, but none had a finer vantage point than photographer Jon Carmichael. He spent years devising a unique method of capturing the entire eclipse, finally merging his interests in photogra…

China made history by landing its Change-4 spacecraft on the moon's far side. The mission was also the first to experiment with growing plants on the moon, and it transported a mini-biosphere dubbed the Lunar Micro Ecosystem to the lunar surface (…
Scientists may have discovered a method for people to breathe on Mars in the future. Space travel is difficult for a variety of reasons, but one of the most significant is the absence of oxygen in space. Bacteria might be the solution to all of our …
It's official. There is water on the Moon. We assumed there was for almost a decade, based on detections announced in 2009, but the wavelengths used left space for interpretation. Scientists announce the first unambiguous discovery using a disti…
