The Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory faces an uncontrolled, fiery re-entry after critical hardware failures crippled the robotic tug sent to save it.

Captured by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, new images reveal a 60-foot-wide depression left by a stranded SpaceX upper stage that struck the Moon at 5,400 mph.

With totality occurring late in the day near sunset, authorities across Spain and infrastructure operators are deploying massive security and monitoring groups to manage crowds and low-horizon viewing risks.

A 10,000-pound upper stage is expected to strike the lunar surface at 5,400 mph. NASA and South Korean orbiters are positioned to capture the impact and its aftermath.

The upcoming celestial event brings daytime darkness to northern Spain for the first time in over a century, arriving alongside a rare planetary alignment and the peak of the Perseid meteor shower.

NASA astronaut Chris Williams and two Russian cosmonauts have safely landed in Kazakhstan after completing a 241-day science mission aboard the International Space Station.

A new study suggests the Roman Space Telescope will track star-shredding events to help researchers determine how supermassive black holes formed in the early universe.

Marking four years of operations, the James Webb Space Telescope has used its infrared capabilities to transform our understanding of the universe.

New research indicates Enceladus possesses a high-energy chemical environment and hydrothermal activity, suggesting its ocean could support biological life.

NASA has launched a search for volunteers to inhabit simulated deep-space environments at the Johnson Space Center. This initiative aims to validate essential hardware and health protocols for future lunar and Martian expeditions.
