The first ever sound recording of a dust devil on Mars reminds us that there is a lot to learn about how they sculpt the landscape.
China has completed construction of the Tiangong space station, and science projects are now underway. The station is an important piece of China’s ambitious plans for space activity in coming years.
Spacecraft are just a small part of what it takes for humans to become an interplanetary species. A political science professor explains how there is much more to creating a spacefaring society.
A team of scientists have found a surprising amount of water ice on Mars.
A study has found that microorganisms living on Mars billions of years ago may have left the planet uninhabitable.
Sophisticated equipment on the Perseverance rover is helping answer some of the many questions researchers have about Mars’ geology over time.
Douglas Rushkoff’s Survival of the Richest is less about tech billionaires and their ‘bonkers’ escape plans than it is an entertaining primer on the various ills of late capitalism.
Some scientists are keen to send humans to Venus on a flyby.
Discarded pieces of landing gear, crashed spacecraft and wear and tear have produced a lot of debris that is now scattered around the Martian surface.
