344 steps stood between the James Webb Space Telescope and total failure — any one could have ended it — and the telescope that survived them all now runs on less power than a household kettle, a million miles from Earth
More than 8,000 people applied to become NASA astronauts in 2024, and just 10 were chosen — not simply the strongest or the fastest, but people who could master robotics, medicine, foreign languages, survival training, high-performance jets and the one skill space demands most: staying calm when nothing goes to plan.

Titan is the only world besides Earth known to have rivers, lakes, seas, clouds and rain — except its “water” is methane and ethane, flowing across a surface frozen to minus 179 degrees Celsius. And in June 2026, scientists held the first Humans to Titan Summit, beginning to map what a crewed mission to Saturn’s largest moon would actually require.
On 13 April 2029, a 375-metre asteroid called Apophis will sweep past Earth closer than many telecommunications satellites — and, under clear dark skies, around two billion people across Europe, Africa and parts of Asia may be able to watch it move across the night sky with the naked eye.
Asteroid to come zooming past Earth – and it will be visible to stargazers!

Top 5 Career Paths Where Cancer’s Intuition And Sensitivity Shine Above The Rest
We think of astronauts as floating in zero gravity, but the International Space Station is still deep inside Earth’s pull, where gravity is nearly 90% as strong as it is on the ground. What looks like weightlessness is really the station and its crew falling around the planet at about 28,000 kilometres per hour.
Fancy living on the moon? NASA says it's working on making it a reality
Proxima Centauri b is our closest known habitable-zone exoplanet, just over four light-years away, and it may be warm enough for liquid water if it has kept an atmosphere. But that “if” is enormous: its red-dwarf star blasts it with extreme radiation strong enough, in some models, to strip an Earth-like atmosphere away.
Earth’s oldest asteroid impact crater may just have been found
In the weightlessness of orbit, an astronaut’s heart can become more spherical as it no longer works against gravity in the usual way, while their spine stretches enough to make them measurably taller before they return to Earth.
