Stoke Space, a company dedicated to developing fully reusable rockets, recently conducted a test of its innovative engine for the second stage of its future Nova rocket. This engine, equipped with 30 thrusters, aims to enable the Nova rocket to be a medium lifter capable of reusable launches. The test, which took place on Feb. […]

Utilizing the powerful instruments of the James Webb Space Telescope, scientists have made groundbreaking discoveries about the oldest galaxies in the universe. These galaxies, believed to have been formed during the first one billion years of the universe, provide valuable insight into the reionization period when hydrogen gas covered the universe before the first stars […]

The year 2024 is set to be an exciting one for space exploration as NASA and SpaceX prepare for the launch of the Crew-8 mission to the International Space Station (ISS). This will be the second time in 2024 that a collection of four humans will fly on a SpaceX rocket and capsule to the […]

SpaceX Reassesses and Prepares for Next Starship Launch After the mishap investigation into the second flight of Starship was officially closed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), SpaceX is now focusing on restacking Booster 10 and Ship 28 onto the Orbital Launch Mount (OLM) for another Wet Dress Rehearsal (WDR) attempt. This WDR attempt will […]

SpaceX continues to make progress in its preparations for Flight 3 of the Starship, despite encountering some setbacks. After two Wet Dress Rehearsal (WDR) aborts, the company decided to destack Ship 28 before removing Booster 10 from the Orbital Launch Mount (OLM). Booster 10 has since been rolled back to the Production Site, while Ship […]

Using data collected by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), an international team of astronomers has discovered evidence of a neutron star in the remnants of a recent supernova. This groundbreaking finding provides valuable insights into the evolution of massive stars and the formation of compact objects in the universe. The supernova, known as SN […]

Astronomers have long been fascinated by the mysterious radio bursts that originate from deep space. These bursts, known as fast radio bursts (FRBs), release an incredibly high amount of energy in just a fraction of a second, comparable to the energy output of the Sun in an entire year. However, the origin of these bursts […]

With the increasing number of launches to meet the demand for satellites, the amount of space debris in orbit is also growing. This has become a concern as it poses risks to functioning satellites and spacecraft. In response to this problem, organizations like Astroscale are focusing on developing commercial on-orbit services for active and defunct […]
