Mars Sample Return, a new mission promoted by NASA, could lead to the launch of a rocket directly from Mars. Experts work on the project.
The study intends to forge ties between theologians and astrobiology, in the event (prediction?) Of new discoveries of extraterrestrial life.
Travel the cosmos and it will hit the asteroid Didymos (and see if it will work in case of danger): in the meantime, DART sends us star photos.
A NASA project between art and science aims to make the trees sing a song at least two hundred years long, and to transmit it in the cosmos.
In a paper published in Nature, NASA tells us that we should have clear ideas and be prepared for the discovery of life in space.
NASA will attempt to crash a spacecraft into an asteroid to redirect it.
A group of scientists from leading organizations has been meeting since last November to explore antigravity, alternative propulsion and ... unidentified phenomena.
NASA tests eVTOLs, and is about to "write" the laws of flight that will hold true in this century.
An inflatable module docked to the international space station? What madness. I thought. Yet, in 1992 ...
NASA is developing a simulation that will take place in 5 days to assess the response of agencies and governments to the impact of an asteroid with the Earth.
Several space missions in 2020 suffered delays. In 2021 the calendar is full of events: someone will go swimmingly, someone else who knows. Here they are.
