Perseverance rover completes landmark AI guided trek across Jezero rim
Thursday, 05 February 2026 13:01
NASA's Perseverance Mars rover has completed the first AI planned drives ever carried out on another planet, using a vision capable generative AI system to map out safe routes across the rim of Jezero Crater without human route planners intervening in the usual way.
The demonstration, run on Dec 8 and Dec 10, 2025, used generative AI to create waypoints for the six wheeled rover, taking ov Artemis II teams step through full-scale launch rehearsal at Kennedy

Species that are not native to an area can displace the species that already live there, and the Intergovernmental Panel on Nature has identified invasive alien organisms as one of the greatest threats to global biodiversity. Researchers from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology and the University of Liverpool have now produced a systematic scan of which alien vascular plants could Ancient lungfish fossils refine early vertebrate story

New research from Australian and Chinese scientists is filling key gaps in the evolutionary story of some of the oldest fishes on Earth, including early lungfishes closely related to land vertebrates.
In two separate studies, researchers have re-examined fossil material from the Late Devonian Gogo Formation in Western Australia and described a new lungfish species from 410 million-year-old FCC clears Logos to deploy more than 4,000 broadband satellites

Three ways R&D has shaped Galileo Second Generation
Thursday, 05 February 2026 07:31
Dedicated research and development, funded by European Union (EU) and European Space Agency (ESA) programmes over the years, has played a key role in Galileo Second Generation.
Among the innovations that will benefit the new satellites are the development of new atomic clocks, links that allow the satellites to ‘talk’ to one another in orbit and a prototype ground station that can precisely pinpoint satellites in the sky. These advanced technologies will ensure Galileo continues to provide world‑class positioning, navigation and timing to users worldwide.

NASA Moon mission launch srubbed to March after test
Wednesday, 04 February 2026 15:09
NASA said Tuesday it's delaying until March the launch of its first crewed flyby mission to the Moon in more than 50 years, after encountering leaks during final tests.
The mishaps during a run-through that the US space agency calls a "wet dress rehearsal" dashed hopes that the mission around the Moon could launch as soon as Sunday. The next possible launch window now opens March 6.
