NASA has successfully launched a pair of spacecraft, named ESCAPADE, on a mission to unravel how the Sun stripped Mars of its atmosphere, transforming it from a potentially habitable world into a dry desert. The twin probes, launched aboard a Blue Origin New Glenn rocket from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, will journey to Mars to study the planet’s unique magnetic environment.
The primary goal of the ESCAPADE (Escape and Plasma Acceleration and Dynamics Explorers) mission…

Astronomers have achieved a decades-long goal: definitively confirming a coronal mass ejection (CME) from a star beyond our Sun. Using the European Space Agency’s XMM-Newton and the ground-based LOW-Frequency ARray (LOFAR) telescope, scientists witnessed an explosive burst of material ejected from a distant star with enough force to devastate the atmosphere of any nearby planet.
While CMEs are frequent occurrences on our Sun, where they can trigger auroras and…

The fourth European Service Module (ESM-4) is prepared for its transatlantic voyage. In the coming days, it will depart from the Airbus integration facilities in Bremen, Germany, embarking on a journey to the United States. This critical component will serve as the primary power and propulsion source for NASA’s Orion spacecraft on the Artemis IV mission, sustaining astronauts with water, breathable air, electricity, and thermal control throughout their lunar voyage.
Upon its arrival at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, the module will be integrated with…
