It is the kind of thing we see in sci-fi movies, an asteroid hurtling towards the earth and scientists coming together to save the planet from destruction.

The planet is pictured to have whitish rings that seemed shimmering and opalescent against the dark sky.

A processed picture of the Einstein Ring from the distant galaxy, J0418, made rounds in the Reddit Astronomy community.

There is a 5% chance that the flare may trigger a powerful geomagnetic storm in the Earth's atmosphere

The moon's bright light will overpower the meteors' shine and stargazers should expect to see 10-20 meteors per hour at best, unlike last year.

Asteroid 2022 OE2 is part of the Apollo group of asteroids and is classified as a Near-Earth Asteroid (NEA).

Ceres is now being considered a chemical factory and a bona fide target for astrobiologists hunting for life beyond Earth.

The asteroid is predicted to come Thursday within around 3.2 million miles of Earth in its own orbit around the sun.

A massive ozone hole which is at least seven times larger than the Antarctic ozone hole has been found over the tropical region.

It has been more than a month since astrophysicists have been predicting that a rocket is on a collision course with the moon. Earlier, it was thought be SpaceX's Falcon 9 booster, but recent reports have claimed that it may not be some other rocket.

Shatner's idea of polluting the rest of the space as well with our industries has not gone down well with Twitter users.

Those who support a manned mission to Mars say that the risks will not outweigh the perceived benefits it will offer mankind.

It slammed into the jovian atmosphere at a height of around 140 miles, high above the clouds of Jupiter.

The space agency received a huge amount of data as the rover sent back thousands of images of a different world.

The space agency will provide the public with live coverage of the historic landing and a "first photo" will be shared after landing.

The entry, descent, and landing may only take seven minutes but it is by far, considered as the most dangerous part of the whole mission.

Participants in the competition must produce food that can help fill food gaps for a three-year round-trip mission with no resupply.

The single-trip using SpaceX's Heavy Falcon cost NASA $332 million and will launch the PPE and the HALO elements of Lunar Gateway.

"The animals were suffering the ethological deprivations and frustrations inherent in laboratory life," animal ethics expert John Gluck said.

Astronomers revealed they was not able to detect the asteroid until 15 hours after its closest approach

When the DSS34 was taken offline for maintenance, NASA confirmed that Voyager 2 regularly sent back data, but operators could not transmit commands.

16 Psyche is believed to be one of the largest asteroids in the main asteroid belt and NASA will arrive at it in 2026.

According to investigations, the culprit is a red lacquer used by personnel to coat certain sections of the rocket during cleaning.

Given all unfortunate events in 2020, many of its followers speculated that it might have been bad news.

NASA's spacecraft observed water molecules on the surface of the moon believed to be trapped in soil and distributed widely on the surface.
