Russian space chief Dmitry Rogozin has apparently threatened Elon Musk, but the SpaceX founder and CEO doesn't seem too bothered. "If I die under mysterious circumstances, it's been nice knowin ya," Musk said this weekend on Twitter.
On the night of May 15-16, the attention of millions of people will be drawn skyward, where a mottled, coppery globe - the moon - will be completely immersed in the long, tapering cone of shadow cast into space by our planet. Here's why it's the must-see event of May, if not the year!
The Large Magellanic Cloud is sharper than ever in the infrared eyes of the James Webb Space Telescope. As the $10 billion observatory enters the "homestretch" of its commissioning work, according to officials, Webb's latest image showed off the telescope's literally stellar performance using its coldest instrument, the Mid-Infrared Instrument.

Space coast residents got a treat early Friday when SpaceX's the latest Starlink satellite fleet launch spawned an eerie glowing cloud that shined like some medieval fantasy monster in the predawn sky.
That's no shooting star; it's a spacecraft. SpaceX's Crew-3 astronaut mission's return to Earth early Friday was captured in epic photos as the crew wrapped up a half-year on the International Space Station.

Samantha Cristoforetti has taken TikTok to new heights. The European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut posted a video to the social media platform from the International Space Station on Thursday (May 5), becoming the first-ever TikToker in the final frontier. "Follow me to boldly go where no TikToker has gone before," the European Space Agency astronaut said.
Our story begins with a galaxy known as 1ES 1927+654, which briefly ceased X-ray emissions for a few months, then resumed and increased. So far, the potential black hole observations represent a unique situation visible from 236 million light-years away.
The Earth is apparently trying to tell us something. A surprising new photo from the GOES East satellite has revealed what appears to be the word "Go" written in the clouds as seen from space. The Earth view was spotted on Friday by GOES East, which is operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Scientists used the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at the LHC at CERN (the French acronym for the European Organization for Nuclear Research) near Geneva, Switzerland for a new experimental test investigating the mass of neutrinos.
North Korea launched a new ballistic missile test from a submarine off the country's east coast Saturday (May 7), according to military officials in South Korea. The South Korean military detected the submarine-launched ballistic missile test off the coast of the North Korean city of Sinpo at 2:07 p.m. local time, according to the Yonhap News Agency.
A startup that wants to provide satellite service directly to your cell phone just took a big step toward achieving that goal. AST SpaceMobile received an experimental license from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) allowing for U.S.-based testing of the BlueWalker 3 satellite, the Texas-based company announced on May 2.
The Earth 2.0 Telescope would spend four years orbiting sun-Earth Lagrange point 2, about 930,000 miles (1.5 million kilometers) from Earth. There, it would fixed its seven telescopes on a portion of the sky toward the galactic center and watch for signs of dimming as planets transit, or pass in front of, a star as they orbit.
As the search for life in the universe continues, scientists already know it's not enough to find rocky planets in a star's habitable zone, the region where a planet can host liquid water, a requirement for life as we know it. A planet's age may actually matter a lot, scientists say.
The first lunar eclipse of 2022 will take place on May 15 and 16, 2022 depending on your time zone. Here is everything you need to know to gear up and prepare for the event.
