NASA is moving into a new phase of space exploration, with major progress across human spaceflight, science missions, and advanced technology. In just one year, the agency has launched multiple crewed and science missions,

"The images MAVEN captured truly are incredible," Shannon Curry, MAVEN's principal investigator and research scientist at the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP) at the University of Colorado Boulder, said as quoted by NASA.

MAVEN was built to last in orbit until 2030 — that's not looking likely anymore.

Since it landed on Mars on February 18, 2021, NASA has kept its Perseverance rover busy gathering data and collecting important samples across various regions of the Red Planet. The agency recently released an update on its upcoming plans for the rover ...

NASA reports that its moon mission is accelerating, with plans to return astronauts to the lunar surface by 2028.

3I/ATLAS, an interstellar object identified by NASA as a comet, recently passed its closest point to the sun. Scientists around the world are observing its months-long journey to learn more about the chemistry of objects from elsewhere in the galaxy.

It survived. Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS has flown past the Sun and emerged intact, but it is not done making news. As of 15 November 2025, it is putting on a show: it has grown a spectacular tail, emitted its first-ever detected radio signals, and even ...

NASA has thrown a lifeline to scientists working on a mission to visit an asteroid that will make an unusually close flyby of the Earth in 2029, reversing the Trump administration’s previous plan to shut it down. This mission, named OSIRIS-APEX, was one ...

NASA’s groundbreaking science missions, vital to exploring the cosmos and expanding humanity’s understanding of our place in the universe, are facing unprecedented threats. The White House has proposed deep cuts to NASA’s budget in fiscal year 2026 ...
