All systems seem go for Astrobotic's private moonshot on a a ULA Vulcan rocket. The upcoming liftoff of a moon lander — Peregrine Mission One — is a nail-biter for many reasons. As a privately built spacecraft, it represents an undertaking advanced by NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services initiative. Here's what's at stake.
Surprise, surprise: SpaceX plans to set more spaceflight records this year. The company wants to launch nearly 150 missions this year. But can SpaceX, which launched 96 orbital missions and 2 Starship flights in 2023, reach its 144-flight target?
On Monday, April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will come to North America. The first major eclipse of the sun since 2017 will be visible from Mexico, 14 U.S. states and southeastern Canada. Here is everything you need to know to see the event!

The galaxy, known as BRI 1335-0417, is more than 12 billion years old, making it the oldest and farthest known spiral galaxy in our universe. Using the ALMA radio telescope in Chile, researchers captured the formation of a seismic wave in the gas moving around the galaxy, something never seen before in such an early galaxy.
Since the first aircraft were invented, they have been controlled by moving surfaces such as rudders, flaps, elevators and ailerons. DARPA's X-65 CRANE program aims to do away with these entirely and develop an aircraft controlled fully by jets of pressurized air that alter how the surrounding air flows over the aircraft while in flight.
