A new dataset from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory maps one million cis-lunar orbits, highlighting orbital stability challenges, space domain awareness needs, and planning requirements for Moon ...

Humans have long imagined life on Mars, but what if the red planet actually delivered life to Earth in the first place?

AI accelerates aerospace engineering by cutting design cycles and improving performance through data-driven optimization.AI ...

Tiny bits of Earth’s atmosphere have been drifting to the moon for billions of years, guided by Earth’s magnetic field.

It's been 150 days since the Moon has been on a collision course, headed right toward Earth. As the Moon gets closer, ocean ...

The moon's surface may be more than just a dusty, barren landscape. Over billions of years, tiny particles from Earth's atmosphere have landed in the lunar soil, creating a possible source of ...

Where was all that angular momentum now? The prevailing theory eventually came to be that a Mars-sized body, nicknamed "Theia," struck the proto-Earth. This collision drove material from Earth and ...

During its initial molten phase, the Moon experienced tidal bulges on its near and far sides due to Earth's immense gravitational pull. The Moon's rotation initially carried these gravitationally ...

Around 4.5 billion years ago a giant object around the size of Mars crashed into the proto-planet Earth, called Theia. This essentially redid the planet and created the Moon, but new research suggests ...

The CRASH Clock is a new metric for measuring the risks of satellite congestion in low-Earth orbit. Its calculations are disturbing. Reading time 2 minutes Last week, a Chinese spacecraft passed ...
