Religions tend to portray God as deeply concerned with humans, yet we seem hugely unimportant in the vast scheme of things.
Simulations in a special chamber suggest how the Mars landscape could have been shaped under certain conditions.
Some philosophers believe space is a giant container, while others think it’s all in our heads.
The gravitational wave itself is the least exciting part of the announcement from LIGO and Virgo. Observing this new source answers many longstanding questions.
The students of class 3E, Ferny Grove State School, want to know if astronauts get space sick when travelling to the International Space Station.
We’ve all seen videos of satellites being blasted off into space - but once they’re locked in orbit around the earth, how do we bring them back down?
Our fascination with space shows no signs of slowing down, 60 years after the Soviet Union launched the world’s first satellite, Sputnik.
Musk’s audacious plan to blast people to Mars by 2024 glosses over some important social and political challenges that SpaceX will need to successfully navigate to get off the ground.
Space inspires, and the establishment of a Space Agency in Australia is well positioned to drive engagement in STEM.
Planetary protection protocols try to make sure we don’t seed places like Mars with life from our planet. An astrobiologist argues they’re misguided – especially with human astronauts on the horizon.
