NASA Moon mission launch srubbed to March after testWashington, United States (AFP) Feb 3, 2026 NASA said Tuesday it's delaying until March the launch of its first crewed flyby mission to the Moon in more than 50 years, after encountering leaks during final tests. The mishaps during a run-through that the US space agency calls a "wet dress rehearsal" dashed hopes that the mission around the Moon could launch as soon as Sunday. The next possible launch window now opens March 6. The

NISAR radar view maps surface changes in Mississippi DeltaLos Angeles CA (SPX) Feb 02, 2026 A new radar image from the joint NASA-ISRO NISAR satellite shows how the mission can see through cloud cover to reveal surface features across the Mississippi River Delta region in southeastern Louisiana. The scene, acquired on November 29, 2025, with NISAR's L-band synthetic aperture radar instrument, spans the cities of New Orleans and Baton Rouge, the winding Mississippi River between t

Rock microbes reveal hidden groundwater carbon engineBerlin, Germany (SPX) Feb 03, 2026 Deep underground, microbial communities living on rock surfaces are emerging as powerful but largely overlooked drivers of groundwater chemistry and carbon storage. A team from the Cluster of Excellence Balance of the Microverse at Friedrich Schiller University Jena has now shown that these attached microbes follow fundamentally different strategies from free-floating cells in groundwater, with

Lunar soil test chamber paves way for future moon constructionParis, France (SPX) Feb 04, 2026 Before any building rises on the Moon, engineers will need to understand the soil beneath their structures just as they do on Earth. To address this challenge, a recent ESA Discovery project led by the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI) has produced a design for a specialised calibration chamber that will allow cone penetration instruments to be tested under lunar conditions, providing the g

Exploding primordial black hole model may link extreme neutrino and dark matterAmherst MD (SPX) Feb 04, 2026 In 2023, a subatomic particle called a neutrino crashed into Earth with such a high amount of energy that it should have been impossible. In fact, there are no known sources anywhere in the universe capable of producing such energy - 100,000 times more than the highest-energy particle ever produced by the Large Hadron Collider, the world's most powerful particle accelerator. However, a team of p

ESA adjusts Cluster orbits for rare twin reentry campaignParis, France (SPX) Feb 04, 2026 When satellites fall back to Earth, most of their structure burns up in the atmosphere, but engineers still lack detailed data on how real spacecraft actually break apart during reentry and which components survive the plunge. To close this gap, the European Space Agency has retargeted the final orbits of its remaining two Cluster satellites so that both can be observed from an aircraft during t

ESA's sustainability ambitionSpace activities are unlike any others. They interact not just with Earth, but with three interconnected environments: Earth, Earth’s orbit, and the Moon and deep space. On Earth, we aim to reduce the space sector’s environmental impacts while maximising the societal and environmental benefits of our missions. In orbit, we manage space debris and collision risks to maintain safe and secure operations. For the Moon and deep space, we are laying the foundations to minimise the impact of our missions on and around other celestial bodies.

Flight heritage? It isn’t what you thinkIn space procurement, there are few phrases that carry more weight than “flight heritage.” Once a supplier claims it, the rest of the room can relax. The hardware has flown, goes the thinking. It worked. The risk of using such hardware is vanishingly small, even absent. This is understandable. Space is famously unforgiving, and if […] The post Flight heritage? It isn’t what you think appeared first on SpaceNews.
