The Vera Rubin Revolutionary Observatory will collect more astronomical data in its first year of operation than all other telescopes combined.

The idea of flying satellites in "very" low Earth orbit is not new. Back at the dawn of the space age, in the late 1950s, the first American spy satellites under the Corona program orbited at an altitude of 120-160 kilometers above the Earth.

As we have found out, the cosmos is filled with a huge number of completely different worlds, and it is natural to wonder if Earth 2.0 exists, or if they are all really, what we call, "alien".

Asteroid 2024 YR4, with a width of 40 to 100 meters, will pass very close to Earth in December 2032 and may even strike the planet.

Most scientists today believe that our world is 13.797 billion years old. However, in an article published by ScienceAlert, researchers from the University of Ottawa have come up with a bold hypothesis, suggesting that it may actually be twice as old.

The survival of organisms in the vacuum of space may support the theory that life did not originate on Earth, but somewhere in the galaxy.

The Earth-like planet closest to a star among the seven planets in the famous TRAPPIST-1 system may be capable of maintaining a dense atmosphere.

A Japanese spacecraft has made a rendezvous with a discarded rocket in Earth orbit. Astroscale intends to remove the 11-meter-long spent rocket stage.

Five galaxies have been discovered using the James Webb telescope. The galaxies are 200 million years after the Big Bang, making them the earliest galaxies ever discovered.

New images taken by the Hubble telescope prove that the Great Red Spot is more dynamic than previously thought. Some effects are associated with a 90-day cycle.

Изучение космоса - одна из самых захватывающих исследовательских областей, которая привлекает внимание учёных и любителей всего мира. За последние десятилетия мы сделали множество открытий и достигли значительных прорывов в понимании вселенной.

В далёком 2018 году учёные обнаружили нечто особенное, притаившееся на борту Международной космической станции. Этими нежданными гостями оказались пять штаммов бактерии, которые обладали множественной лекарственной устойчивостью, известные под названием Enterobacter bugandensis.
