  • The Captain Armband Has Been Passed on ISS
    Sep 25 2024
    Hurricane Helene has delayed the launch of Crew-9. Russia's Soyuz returned home Monday bringing to Earth Oleg Kononenko who now holds the record for most experienced space-flier.

The Perseverance rover captured a strange image on Mars of a striped rock, the first of its kind spotted on Mars. And astronomers have discovered a 23 million light-years long jet blasted from a supermassive black hole 7.5 billion years ago.
