Spain's Río Tinto features striking red waters and high acidity caused by ancient geology, extremophile microbes, and thousands of years of mining, serving as a key research site for NASA.
NASA's Perseverance rover is set to break the record for distance driven on another world, surpassing Opportunity's 45.16 km mark in just a third of the time, largely due to its advanced autonomous navigation system.
El pueblo despoblado de Villalibado, en Burgos, será la base desde la que la NASA y el Exploratorium de San Francisco retransmitirán en directo el eclipse total de Sol del 12 de agosto a millones de espectadores.
米NASAは8月6日、SpaceXのロケット「Falcon 9」の使用済み上段が5日早朝に月面に衝突したと発表した。意図しない衝突だが、機器への危険はないとしている。
SpaceX'in terk edilmiş Falcon 9 roket parçası Ay yüzeyine çarparak Einstein Krateri'nde yeni bir krater oluşturdu. Olay, uzay çöpleri ve güvenlik tartışmalarını yeniden alevlendirdi.
NASA, 4 milyar dolarlık Nancy Grace Roman Uzay Teleskobu'nu 30 Ağustos'ta SpaceX Falcon Heavy roketiyle fırlatmayı planlıyor. Geniş açılı yeni teleskop, Samanyolu'nu bir ayda tarayacak ve 2 milyar galaksiyi görüntüleyecek.
NASA's Ingenuity helicopter concluded its historic Mars mission in early 2024 after 72 flights and 1,004 sols, far exceeding its initial 30-sol plan. It proved powered flight on another planet, scouting for the Perseverance rover, and paving the way for future aerial planetary exploration.
Los incendios forestales en España este verano han sido de los más devastadores, con el de Ávila arrasando 55.000 hectáreas y siendo visible desde el espacio. Satélites de la NASA monitorearon el fuego, que afectó 77.000 hectáreas, y el riesgo de incendio sigue siendo alto debido a condiciones ambientales previas.
Uma nova pesquisa genética revela que os povos da Idade do Gelo na Eurásia e América do Norte caçavam seletivamente mamutes-lanosos fêmeas, representando 70% dos restos encontrados em sítios arqueológicos. Cientistas sugerem que a previsibilidade dos rebanhos matriarcais e o menor tamanho das fêmeas podem ter facilitado essa caça direcionada.
O rover Curiosity da NASA descobriu uma vasta área em Marte coberta por fraturas poligonais que lembram favos de mel, as maiores já vistas. Cientistas investigam a origem dessas formações, que podem revelar mudanças ambientais no planeta ao longo de bilhões de anos.
Katalyst Space Technologies' Link satellite, on a mission to rescue NASA's Swift observatory, spun out of control last week but engineers have successfully halved its spin rate and are re-establishing control, aiming to continue the mission by late August.
Italian ESA astronaut Luca Parmitano will be the first European to join NASA's Artemis III mission, set to launch in 2027, aiming to return humans to the Moon. He highlights the mission's complexity and the strong EU-US partnership in space exploration.
A Katalyst Space robot launched to raise the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory's orbit has malfunctioned, spinning out of control due to system failures. Engineers are using backup systems to stabilize it before NASA decides if the mission can proceed.
