Our nutrient-packed space food is coming back home! Samples... from the BioNutrients-3 study will depart the International Space Station aboard NASA’s SpaceX CRS-33 mission and will soon be analyzed by the science team NASA Ames. Results from this study will help scientists develop approaches to produce on-demand nutrients needed for astronauts during deep space missions to the Moon and Mars. Learn more:show more

Mars, we're coming for you! 🔴 🛰️ 🛰️ Soon,... our twin Explorer spacecraft built for NASA & Space Sciences Laboratory ESCAPADE mission will begin their journey to the Red Planet to study the history of its climate. The mission will study how the solar wind interacts with Mars’ magnetic environment and how this interaction drives the planet’s atmospheric escape, revealing how Mars changed from warm and wet to the cold, dry world we see today. By flying two spacecraft in different orbits around Mars, ESCAPADE will get a dual viewpoint to solve the mystery of Mars' atmospheric escape. It’s a low-cost mission delivering high-impact science.show more

Today’s #GoogleDoodle celebrates the launch of Artemis II, the... NASA mission that will send astronauts around the moon and back for the first time in over 50 years. During the approximately 10-day voyage, the crew will test the spacecraft’s systems while traveling farther into deep space than any human has gone since the Apollo program. This critical test flight brings us one step closer to a long-term return to the moon and future missions to Mars. Want to learn more? Watch NASA's Artemis II mission live on YouTube 🚀 🌕show more

Artificial embryo samples aboard Tiangong Space Station for life... science research Space "artificial embryo" samples and other life science experiments delivered by the Tianzhou-10 cargo spacecraft have been installed into experiment modules aboard China's Tiangong space station, the Technology and Engineering Center for Space Utilization under the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) said on Wednesday. The "artificial embryos" are stem cell-derived artificial human embryos. The embryos, though not true life forms and unable to develop into human babies, will help simulate the earliest stages of human development. Once the experiments are completed, the artificial embryo samples will be frozen in orbit and then returned to Earth on a future mission for side-by-side analysis with ground-based controls in laboratories on the ground. This effort is part of a broader suite of 41 space science experiments being deployed aboard Tiangong, supporting its latest round of research on the orbiting laboratory.show more

The widely anticipated launch of the SpaceX/NASA Crew-10 mission... from the Kennedy Space Center has been scrubbed in the last minutes before launch due to a hydraulics issue with the ground equipment. The mission was set to finally allow the return of two astronauts, Barry “Butch” Wilmore and Sunita “Suni” Williams. The two astronauts have been in space at the International Space Station (ISS) for more than nine months after Boeing’s Starliner was deemed too unsafe to bring them home due to issues with the thrusters and was returned to Earth uncrewed. The next launch window will likely be tomorrow, with the astronauts returning home Friday hopefully.show more

Earth moves. We watch in awe. 🌍 Captured aboard... the International Space Station, this timelapse shows our planet from 250 miles up. The International Space Station is more than a window seat. In microgravity, researchers study medicine, materials, climate, and life itself in ways we simply can’t on the ground.show more
