NASA’s Parker Solar Probe achieved a breakthrough on Thursday, completing its 25th flyby and reaching record speed near the Sun. The spacecraft touched 687,000 km/h, fast enough to cover New Delhi–New York in just one minute. Despite losing contact briefly, it regained communication and continues revealing mysteries of the Sun. BulletsIn Parker Solar Probe completes

Seventeen days after launch from India’s Satish Dhawan Space Centre, NASA-ISRO’s NISAR satellite has successfully unfurled its 39-foot radar antenna in low Earth orbit. The antenna will help track Earth’s changes with unprecedented precision. BulletsIn NISAR radar antenna fully deployed on Aug 15, 2025 Largest reflector ever used in a NASA mission, 39 feet wide

NASA engineers successfully revived the Juno spacecraft’s failing camera by heating it from Earth, 595 million km away. The technique, called annealing, aimed to reverse radiation damage without physical repair. Though the fix was temporary, it brought back vital imaging of Jupiter and its moon Io. The mission shows the rising importance of remote repairs

NASA has launched the TRACERS mission to study how solar wind interacts with Earth’s magnetic field. The launch occurred in July 2025 from California. The mission aims to understand how solar activity affects Earth’s space environment and potentially disrupts technology. BulletsIn TRACERS launched by NASA in July 2025 from California.

NASA is studying how space impacts human health as part of its long-term goals to send astronauts to Mars. In the unique environment of space—with no gravity, fresh air, or sunlight—NASA explores how the body and mind respond. This research is critical to the Artemis program, which aims to send astronauts to the Moon and

NASA scientists have finally answered a long-standing question about why the Moon’s near side and far side are so different. Using data from the GRAIL mission, researchers developed a detailed gravity model revealing key differences in internal structure. The study, published in Nature, shows the near side has a hotter, more active mantle, likely due

NASA has released an image of a black hole tearing apart a star in a cosmic explosion. The event occurred 600 million light-years away, and its radiation has just reached Earth. The rare sighting, captured by Hubble, is a Tidal Disruption Event (TDE) and may lead to new black hole discoveries. BulletsIn Black hole devoured

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
