New research provides a compact but powerful way for Mars rovers to communicate directly with Earth via an array of smaller antenna elements, bypassing the need for an intermediary.

The House proposes slashing funding for earth science from NASA’s budget, yet this science is critical to understanding – and coping with – the dramatic effects of a warming Arctic around the world.
Mining in space is no longer science fiction. But could it end wars over resources, as Neil deGrasse Tyson has suggested?
Space scientists have a busy decade ahead with plans to visit Jupiter, Mars, Mercury and other interplanetary bodies all on the cards.
In the long lead-up to our ultimate flyby of Pluto, space science has reconfigured our notions of what it means to be a solar system, a planet, a world.
Photos from the spacecraft’s close approach are dazzling. They and other data from the mission will fill in some of the blanks about Pluto and provide a snapshot of the infant solar system.
What can the data from New Horizons tell us about the dwarf planet’s five moons?
Lack of impact craters intrigues space experts who say it suggests the dwarf planet may be geologically active.
Pluto is one of the most enigmatic objects in our solar system, and its secrets are soon to be uncovered by the New Horizons probe.
Jupiter’s moon Europa is one of the most enticing objects in our solar system, and a future NASA mission may help reveal whether it is a suitable for life.
NASA has now formally started to pack its bags for the next big discovery mission, this time heading to Jupiter’s icy moon Europa. Last month NASA announced the instruments that will fly on this trip and…
The turbocharged capitalism of private space flight is strangely at odds with the brotherly, generous global consensus that built the legal framework for extra-terrestrial travel.
Giant balloons are a lot cheaper than rockets launchers in getting scientific equipment to the edge of space. But they don’t always fly to plan.
It’s urgent that we turn our attention to a high definition space telescope that will allow us to directly image exoplanets.
After ten years in space NASA probe will get up close and personal with Mercury a final time.
Approaching Ceres, the Dawn spacecraft reveals the dwarf planet in colour for the first time.
Whatever America’s exact strategy in space, it doesn’t seem to involve investing in a new International Space Station
NASA’s latest mission to the International Space Station is going to study muscle wasting, among other things. Here’s what they hope to find out.
The aurora borealis lights up the Arctic night skies. Also called the Northern Lights, the phenomenon is the result of beams of charged particles tracing along the Earth’s magnetic field and entering the…
Like many a scientist before me, I have spent this week trying to grow a crystal. I wasn’t fussy, it didn’t have to be a single crystal – a smush of something would have done – just as long as it had a…
