NASA progresses LISA mission telescope development with new engineering test unit

NASA is advancing its contributions to the LISA gravitational wave mission by developing a new all-glass telescope. The agency has commissioned L3Harris Technologies to design, assemble, and integrate this telescope as an Engineering Test Unit. LISA, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna, is a planned space observatory designed to detect gravitational waves, which are ripples in space-time. This telescope development marks a significant step forward in preparing the mission's technology.

NASA's Curiosity rover captures view from Gale Crater after elevation milestone

NASA's Curiosity Mars rover looked back across the floor of Gale Crater on September 5, 2026. This view, captured on the mission's 5,006th Martian day, shows the crater's distant rim. The observation followed a significant elevation milestone reached nine days earlier, on August 26. On that date, the rover's journey surpassed an altitude of one kilometer above its original landing site.

Lunar Grounding Challenge

As an astronaut traverses the lunar South Pole, tribocharging from walking on the lunar surface and plasma charging from the ambient plasma generate electric charge on the spacesuit. This problem is severely compounded when entering lunar shadows and Permanently Shadowed Regions (PSRs). In these dark zones, the spacesuit can buildup a substantial negative potential due […]

Astronomers Solve Cosmic Cold Case with NASA Hubble Data

Diligent sleuthing by astronomers uncovered a surprising chemical clue that indicates the white dwarf star HS 0209+0832 may host a second-generation planet. This artist’s concept released on Oct. 5, 2026, depicts that possible explanation. The white dwarf is the “dead” core of a star that burned through all of its nuclear fuel and lost its outer […]
