Giant rogue planets could host scaled-down planetary systems
London, UK (SPX) Aug 06, 2025
New findings from the University of St Andrews suggest that giant free-floating planets, unbound to any star, could form their own miniature planetary systems.
Using data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), researchers examined eight isolated planetary-mass objects between five and ten times the mass of Jupiter. Although similar in size to gas giants, these bodies drift alone in sp

What is NASA's Distributed Spacecraft Autonomy?
Greenbelt MD (SPX) Aug 09, 2025
Astronauts living and working on the Moon and Mars will rely on satellites to provide services like navigation, weather, and communications relays. While managing complex missions, automating satellite communications will allow explorers to focus on critical tasks instead of manually operating satellites.
Long duration space missions will require teaming between systems on Earth and other

Unique Martian sulfate points to recent thermal activity and mineral formation
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Aug 09, 2025
New research led by the SETI Institute has identified an unusual iron sulfate on Mars that may represent a previously unknown mineral, offering new insights into the planet's thermal and geochemical history. The study, published in Nature Communications, reveals the presence of ferric hydroxysulfate, a mineral that likely formed through heating and oxidation of more common hydrated sulfates.

Four astronauts home from space station after splashdown
Washington (AFP) Aug 9, 2025
An international crew of four astronauts is back home on Earth Saturday after nearly five months aboard the International Space Station, returning safely in a SpaceX capsule.
The spacecraft carrying US astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, Japan's Takuya Onishi and Russian cosmonaut Kirill Peskov splashed down off California's coast at 8:44 am local time (1534 GMT).

James Webb Space Telescope discovers evidence of a new planet
Washington DC (UPI) Aug 7, 2025
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has discovered evidence of a giant planet orbiting a star in the solar system closest to Earth, the administration announced Thursday.
The Alpha Centauri triple star system, four light-years from Earth, has long been at the center of scientists' search for life on other planets. This discovery was an important step forward in that search, they said.
