Galaxy NGC 4900: A Spiral and a Star in Virgo | Hubble Space Telescope

Galaxy NGC 4900: A Spiral and a Star in Virgo | Hubble Space Telescope

This NASA/European Space Agency Hubble Space Telescope picture features a sparkling spiral galaxy paired with a prominent star, both in the constellation Virgo. While the galaxy and the star appear to be close to one another, even overlapping, they are actually a great distance apart. The star, marked with four long diffraction spikes, is in our own galaxy. It is just 7,109 light-years away from Earth. The galaxy, named NGC 4900, lies about 45 million light-years from Earth.

This image combines data from two of Hubble’s instruments: the Advanced Camera for Surveys, installed in 2002 and is still in operation today, and the older Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2—in use from 1993 to 2009. The data used here were taken more than 20 years apart for two different observing programs—a real testament to Hubble’s long scientific lifetime.

Both programs aimed to understand the demise of massive stars. In one, researchers studied the sites of past supernovae, aiming to estimate the masses of the stars that exploded and investigate how supernovae interact with their surroundings. NGC 4900 was selected for study because it hosted a supernova named SN 1999br.

In the other program, researchers laid the groundwork for studying future supernovae by collecting images of more than 150 nearby galaxies. After a supernova is detected in one of these galaxies, researchers can examine these images, searching for a star at the location of the supernova. Identifying a supernova progenitor star in pre-explosion images gives valuable information about how, when and why supernovae occur.

Image Description: A spiral galaxy seen face-on. Broken spiral arms made of blue patches of stars and thin strands of dark dust swirl around the galaxy’s center, forming a broad, circular disc. An extended circular halo surrounds the disc. The center is a brightly-glowing, stubby bar-shaped area in a pale yellow color. A bright star in our own galaxy, with long cross-shaped diffraction spikes, is visible atop the distant galaxy.

NASA astronaut and Crew-10 commander, Anne McClain

A Special Message from Crew-10 Commander Anne McClain: "Departure Day" from Houston to Florida. When people think about spaceflight, they usually think most about launch day, and how it must be the day when we think most deeply about the magnitude of what we are doing. It is, of course, the day with the biggest bang—its not super normal to wake up in the morning and yeet yourself off the planet.

But before launch day, there are a series of other significant departures. The last day of training. The last time you see friends. When you leave the regular world and enter quarantine. When you get out of your own bed for the last time, and realize the adventure you will have before you are back again. When you leave home and see it in the rearview mirror. Hugging your loved ones for the last time.

Today was one of those poignant days. Today, Crew-10 left our homes (and temporary homes, for our international crewmembers) in Houston to travel to Kennedy Space Center. For us, it was a transition in the very definition of "home" and "family." We have transitioned to NASA housing, and soon our crew will rely most heavily on one another—we are as close as a family.

You have seen astronauts float through the hatches, giving hugs and high fives. But before each joyous arrival day, there are departure days.

"If you are going to go fast, go alone. If you are going to go far, go together." 50 years after Apollo-Soyuz redefined international space cooperation, Crew-10 is going together.

Go Crew-10!🚀

Shenzhou-19 Crew Conducts Science Experiments | China Space Station

Shenzhou-19 Crew Conducts Science Experiments | China Space Station

The Shenzhou-19 crew members aboard China's Tiangong Space Station carried out a range of scientific experiments and tests, and completed environmental monitoring, station management and other key tasks last week, according to the China Manned Space Agency (CMSA).

For example, the astronauts used electroencephalogram (EEG) equipment to carry out tests for a number of experiments. Data collected will help ground-based researchers explore areas, such as the impact of gravity on visual motion processing and the effects of brainwave music intervention on regulating inhibitory control functions during long-duration space flights.

The crew also finished tests for several experiments, like fine motor control and visual motion gravity representation, as planned, with the use of fine motor measurement instruments, eye trackers and other equipment, as well as related experimental software.

Additionally, the trio used the plantar pressure collection equipment to obtain data under specific flight conditions, helping researchers explore and map relationships between various motion state parameters and plantar pressure.

Experimental projects in the field of microgravity physics science are progressing as planned.

The crew replaced experimental samples in the fluid physics experiment cabinet and the containerless experiment cabinet, and completed a set of associated tasks, including the vacuuming of exhaust gases in the combustion cabinet.

Additionally, the crew, together with China's first space station AI flight robot "Xiao Hang", finalized a number of experiments, along with research on multimodal interaction technology.

Furthermore, the astronauts performed environment monitoring, equipment inspection and maintenance and other tasks inside the space station.

They also conducted work involving medical checks and weightlessness protection exercises.

The Shenzhou-19 crew, including the country's first female space engineer, was sent into space on October 30, 2024, for a six-month mission. Their mission work includes 86 space science research and technology experiments.

The Secrets behind Earth's Multi-colored Airglow | NASA Goddard

The Secrets behind Earth's Multi-colored Airglow | NASA Goddard

What does our planet look like from space? Most are familiar with the beloved images of the blue marble or pale blue dot—Earth from 18,000 and 3.7 billion miles away, respectively. However, closer to home, within the nearest region of space, you might encounter an unfamiliar sight. If you peer down on Earth from just 300 miles above the surface, near the orbit of the International Space Station, you can see vibrant swaths of red and green or purple and yellow light emanating from the upper atmosphere. This is airglow.

Airglow occurs when atoms and molecules in the upper atmosphere, excited by sunlight, emit light in order to shed their excess energy. Or, it can happen when atoms and molecules that have been ionized by sunlight collide with and capture a free electron. In both cases, they eject a particle of light—called a photon—in order to relax again. The phenomenon is similar to auroras, but where auroras are driven by high-energy particles originating from the solar wind, airglow is energized by day-to-day solar radiation.

Thai 'Aurora' and Earth Airglow: Orbital View | International Space Station

Thai 'Aurora' and Earth Airglow: Orbital View | International Space Station

Expedition 72 flight engineer and NASA astronaut Don Pettit: "Known as Thai Aurora, fishing boats off the coast of Thailand use green lights to lure their catch. Striking view from orbit!"

You will also notice orange, green and yellow airglow in this image. Airglow occurs when atoms and molecules in the Earth's upper atmosphere, excited by sunlight, emit light to shed their excess energy. Or, it can happen when atoms and molecules that have been ionized by sunlight collide with and capture a free electron. In both cases, they eject a particle of light—called a photon—in order to relax again. The phenomenon is similar to auroras, but where auroras are driven by high-energy particles originating from the solar wind, airglow is energized by ordinary, day-to-day solar radiation.

Unlike episodic and fleeting auroras, airglow shines constantly throughout Earth’s atmosphere, and the result is a tenuous bubble of light that closely encases our entire planet. (Auroras, on the other hand, are usually constrained to Earth’s poles.) Just a tenth as bright as all the stars in the night sky, airglow is far more subdued than auroras, too dim to observe easily except in orbit or on the ground with clear, dark skies and a sensitive camera.

SpaceX Starship Launch & Booster Catch: Eighth Flight Test | Starbase Texas

SpaceX Starship Launch & Booster Catch: Eighth Flight Test | Starbase Texas

Launch of a SpaceX Starship spacecraft and Super Heavy Booster on the launch pad at Starbase Texas on March 6, 2025, at 5:30 p.m Central Time (CT) for its eighth flight test. Mechazilla successfully caught the 23-story tall Super Heavy Booster for a record third time. Unfortunately, Starship lost attitude control later on and experienced a "rapid unscheduled disassembly."

Watch a replay of the SpaceX flight test with the latest official flight evaluation updates here:

https://www.spacex.com/launches/mission/?missionId=starship-flight-8

SpaceX: "Developmental testing by definition is unpredictable. However, by putting flight hardware in a flight environment as frequently as possible, we’re able to quickly learn and execute design changes as we seek to bring Starship online as a fully and rapidly reusable vehicle."

SpaceX’s Starship spacecraft and Super Heavy rocket—collectively referred to as Starship—represent a fully reusable transportation system designed to carry crew and cargo to Earth orbit, the Moon, Mars and beyond. Starship is the world’s most powerful launch vehicle ever developed, capable of carrying up to 150 metric tonnes fully reusable and 250 metric tonnes expendable.

Key Starship Parameters:
Height: 123m/403ft
Diameter: 9m/29.5ft
Payload to LEO: 100–150t (fully reusable)

"Starship is essential to both SpaceX’s plans to deploy its next-generation Starship system as well as for NASA, which will use a lunar lander version of Starship for landing astronauts on the Moon during the Artemis III mission through the Human Landing System (HLS) program."

China's Yutu-2 Moon Rover: New Far Side Image | Operating Since January 2019

China's Yutu-2 Moon Rover: New Far Side Image | Operating Since January 2019

Since its arrival on January 3, 2019, China's Yutu-2 rover has traveled 1,630 meters on the mysterious far side of the Moon as of March 4, 2025. Yutu-2 or Jade Rabbit-2 has sent home this latest image showing diverse features on the lunar surface. China's Yutu-2 lunar rover has been working on the far side of the Moon for over six years as part of the China Lunar Exploration Program (CLEP). Yutu-2 is currently operational as humanity's longest-lived lunar rover and the first lunar rover traversing the far side of the Moon. This is well beyond its original 3-month design lifespan.

Yutu-2 is the robotic lunar rover component of the China National Space Administration's Chang'e 4 Mission to the Moon, launched on December 7, 2018. Chang'e 4 soft landed in the Von Karman Crater in the South Pole-Aitken Basin on the far side of the Moon on January 3, 2019.

Yutu-2 has a radioisotope heater unit to maintain its subsystems during long and cold lunar nights. Electrical power is generated by the rover's solar panels during daylight.

In addition to Yutu-2, the Chang'e-3 probe and Chang'e-4 lander are also operational on the Moon. While certain scientific instruments continue to function and transmit data, researchers are also evaluating their long-term operational capabilities.

"The Moon-based optical telescope onboard [the] Chang'e-3 lander is still operational, performing regular on-off cycles every month, though it is no longer conducting scientific observations. Chang'e-4 is also still active," said Zuo Wei, deputy chief designer of the Chang'e-4 mission.

In addition, the country's Queqiao and Queqiao-2 relay satellites are working in the orbit around the Moon. Queqiao mainly provides Earth-Moon relay communications for Chang'e-4 and Yutu-2. After completing its mission for Chang'e-6, Queqiao-2 is currently conducting scientific observations in orbit while awaiting the arrival of Chang'e-7, scheduled for launch around 2026.

Direct communication with Earth is impossible on the far side of the Moon, since transmissions are blocked by the Moon. Communications must pass through a communications relay satellite, placed at a location that has a clear view of a landing site and the Earth.

Planetary Nebula Abell 7 in Lepus

Planetary Nebula Abell 7 in Lepus

Very faint planetary nebula Abell 7 is about 1,800 light-years distant. It lies just south of Orion in planet Earth's skies toward the constellation Lepus, The Hare. Surrounded by Milky Way stars and near the line-of-sight to distant background galaxies its generally simple spherical shape, about 8 light-years in diameter, is revealed in this deep telescopic image. Within the cosmic cloud are beautiful and complex structures, enhanced by the use of long exposures and narrowband filters that capture emission from hydrogen, sulfur, and oxygen atoms. Otherwise Abell 7 would be much too faint to be appreciated by our eyes.

A planetary nebula represents a very brief final phase in stellar evolution that our own Sun will experience 5 billion years hence, as the nebula's central, once sun-like star shrugs off its outer layers. Abell 7 itself is estimated to be 20,000 years old. However, its central star, seen here as a fading white dwarf, is around 10 billion years old.
