The robotic Chandrayaan 3 mission, which aims pull off India's first-ever moon landing, is scheduled to launch atop an LVM3 rocket from Satish Dhawan Space Centre on Friday at 5:05 a.m. EDT (0905 GMT, or 2:35 p.m. local time). Here's how to watch it live.
You've never seen Earth and the moon like this before. The Mars Express spacecraft recently celebrated 20 years in space by taking a nostalgic look back at Earth and the moon from the Red Planet. The images captured by the European Space Agency (ESA) craft show our planet and its natural satellite as little more than a large white dot crossed by a smaller white dot.
Astrophotographers take note! Prime Day is over, but this anon EOS R6 (body only) is still less than $2000 on Amazon, a $500 saving. And you can save even more with a ring adapter deal.
Skywatchers on Earth won't be the only ones looking over this celestial encounter between the moon and the Pleiades; both Jupiter and the brightest star of Taurus, Aldebaran, will play chaperone and cast their gaze over the proceedings. Here's how to see them!
A methane-fueled rocket just reached Earth orbit for the first time ever.

Canoo Technologies has delivered three specially designed, fully electric crew transportation vehicles to NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The new trio of "astrovans" will enter service as soon as late 2024, when the four astronauts assigned to NASA's Artemis 2 mission launch on the first crewed mission to fly around the moon in more than 50 years.
NASA's Perseverance rover has found a diverse menagerie of organic molecules in a Martian crater, a new study reports. "They are an exciting clue for astrobiologists, since they are often thought of as building blocks of life," study lead author Sunanda Sharma, a planetary scientist at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, told Space.com.
