space Rocket Lab Launched NASA's Capstone Mission to the Moon It is expected that CAPSTONE will reach its destination by entering the lunar orbit in four months and stay there for at least six months.
space NASA's Perseverance Rover Has a Traveling Companion in the Form of a Pet Rock The Perseverance rover has shared an image of its traveling companion – a pet rock that managed to find its way into the front left wheel of the rover in early February and has traveled more than eight and a half kilometers (5.3 miles) with it since then.
space James Webb Space Telescope Gets Hit by a Micrometeoroid Since its launch in December 2021, the telescope has already been hit by at least four different micrometeoroids. However, the latest one was significantly larger than NASA engineers predicted during ground tests.
space NASA Will Create a Research Team to Study UFOs According to NASA, the study will begin in early fall and is expected to last nine months. It will focus on identifying available UAP data, how best to collect future UAP data, and how NASA can use it to move the scientific understanding of UAPs forward.
