The prototype reached 271.4 meters in altitude and landed with pinpoint accuracy, marking a major step in Honda’s goal for a suborbital launch by 2029.

Did NASA invent memory foam? The truth might surprise you. In this video, we debunk the popular myth that memory foam was created in space or designed exclusively for astronauts.

Think Tang was invented by NASA for astronauts? It’s time to bust that myth. In this video, we reveal the real history behind Tang—who actually created it, why it ended up in space, and how clever marketing turned it into a so-called “space-age” drink.

Did you know that space physics affects your life every single day? 🌍 From the GPS on your phone to accurate weather forecasts and power grid protection, the invisible forces of space shape our modern world.

The ESA-led Solar Orbiter mission has made history by capturing the first-ever images of the Sun’s polar regions—a view never seen before!

Think NASA invented Velcro for astronauts in space? Think again. In this video, we uncover the surprising truth about Velcro’s real origin, bust the popular myth linking it to space exploration, and explain how a Swiss engineer—and a walk with his dog—led to one of the most widely used inventions of the 20th century.

This June, skywatchers across the globe will be treated to a rare and captivating celestial event: the full Strawberry Moon of 2025, set to illuminate the night sky.

Ispace Inc., the Tokyo-based lunar exploration company, has confirmed the unsuccessful conclusion of its second lunar landing mission, known as Mission 2. The RESILIENCE lander, central to the mission

Space physics is a vital subdiscipline of astrophysics and geophysics, focusing on the behavior of plasma in space environments—particularly around the Earth, the Sun, and throughout the solar system. It informs critical research in areas such as space weather, planetary magnetospheres, and solar-terrestrial interactions. Over the past century, pioneering theoretical frameworks and revolutionary satellite missions… Read more: A Historical Perspective on Key Discoveries in Space Physics

From shaping planets to driving the Sun’s activity, plasma is a force both powerful and pervasive.

As the ninth integrated test of the Starship launch system, the mission was designed as a data-rich experiment, combining ambitious objectives with a high tolerance for risk—hallmarks of the program’s iterative approach. Flight 9: Testing the Next Evolution of Starship Vehicle Configuration and Objectives Flight 9 launched using Booster 14-2 (its second and final flight)… Read more: Starship Flight 9: Reaching Space, Losing Control
