India’s first human spaceflight is targeted for early 2027, said PM Modi in a message to the Global Space Exploration Conference. The mission reflects India’s growing ambitions in space. He also revealed long-term goals like an Indian space station by 2035 and a moon mission by 2040. A G20 satellite for the Global South was

India plans to launch 52 spy satellites over the next five years to enhance its space-based defence surveillance. The announcement was made by IN-SPACe chairman Pawan Kumar Goenka during the Global Space Exploration Conference 2025. The initiative will see major private sector involvement alongside ISRO.

A NASA-powered study by Japan’s Toho University reveals Earth’s life will end not due to meteors or climate change but from a gradual oxygen loss. The process, expected to take billions of years, results from changes in the sun’s brightness, which will disrupt the planet’s atmosphere and reduce oxygen levels critical to survival.

New research predicts Earth will lose its oxygen-rich atmosphere in about a billion years due to the Sun’s rising brightness. This change will drastically alter life conditions, making Earth uninhabitable for complex organisms. The study also challenges long-held beliefs about oxygen being a reliable sign of life on other planets. BulletsIn Oxygen levels may crash

NASA scientists at Kennedy Space Center in Florida successfully extracted molecular oxygen from simulated lunar soil in a major step toward long-term Moon habitation. The achievement, done in collaboration with Houston-based Lunar Resources Inc., used molten regolith electrolysis to isolate oxygen and metals from moon-like dust. This marks the first time NASA produced oxygen using

For the first time, researchers at the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA) have accurately estimated helium levels in the Sun’s photosphere. The discovery, announced by the Department of Science and Technology, addresses a long-standing challenge due to the absence of helium spectral lines in visible sunlight. The study was published in the Astrophysical Journal. BulletsIn

An international team using Korea’s KMTNet telescopes has found that super-Earths—rocky planets larger than Earth—are far more common than previously believed. Through rare microlensing events, scientists identified distant planets with orbits similar to Jupiter’s, offering fresh insights into planet formation and the vast diversity of exoplanets.
