NASA is inviting the public to join the agency's Artemis II test flight as four astronauts venture around the Moon and back to test systems and hardware needed for deep space exploration.

Professor Helen Fricker says the new laser altimetry system will measure two of the earth’s vital signs: the size of its forests and its amount of ice.

A new paper suggests that BARSOOM may have been alive on the planet, and was killed in the Viking experiments.

The first mission to return humans to the lunar neighborhood since Apollo 17 in 1972 is planning spacecraft testing, scientific research, and a glimpse of the dark side of the moon.

The Earth Dynamics Geodetic Explorer (EDGE) team was one of two teams selected out of four finalists for NASA’s Earth System Explorers (ESE) program, which conducts Earth science missions based on key priorities laid out by the scientific community and national needs.
