ISRO's Chandrayaan-3 soft landed on the lunar surface on August 23 this year, making India the fourth country to land on the Moon. PM Modi named the landing point of Vikram lander as Shiv Shakti Point.
At the Cancun Planetarium, young visitors built box projectors to indirectly and safely view the ring of fire. The ancient Maya may have used dark volcanic glass to protect their eyes, said archeologist Arturo Montero of Tepeyac University in Mexico City.
NASA Psyche mission: NASA expects the test to yield more than 10 times the amount of data, enough to transmit videos from the moon or Mars one day. The spacecraft should have soared a year ago, but was held up by delays in flight software testing attributed to poor management and other issues.
The precise measurement of the gathered samples, initially estimated at around 250 grams or approximately a cupful, will be established when the primary sample container is unsealed, expected to transpire within the coming fortnight.
According to scientists, the chances of Bennu colliding with the Earth are only 0.037 percent and when this happens 1200 megatons of energy will be released that can be 24 times more harmful than a nuclear blast.
NASA estimates that more than 10,000 satellites have been launched into space since 1957, with over half of them now defunct. There are over 25,000 pieces of space debris measuring over 10cm long, posing risks to operational satellites and even human activities such as spacewalks.
The distinctive shape of Pan, resembling a dumpling, is attributed to the ridge around its equator, which is similar to another of Saturn's moons, Atlas.
Scientists estimate the capsule holds at least a cup of rubble from the carbon-rich asteroid known as Bennu, but won't know for sure until the container is opened.
Aditya L1 update: The US Space Agency launched the Parker Solar Probe in 2018 to study the Sun's outer corona. America's Parker Solar Probe was somehow successful in avoiding this solar storm.
The latest mission is a joint US-Russia venture in space despite hostilities between the countries reaching an all-time high over the ongoing Ukraine conflict.
NASA said there are so few high-quality observations that no scientific conclusions can be drawn. The government refers to unexplained sightings as UAPs versus UFOs.
Sharing the image on social media platform X, the space agency wrote, "LRO spacecraft recently imaged the Chandrayaan-3 lander on the Moon's surface."
According to NASA, the satellite and its two instruments will observe the universe’s hottest regions, largest structures and objects with the strongest gravity.
Unlike Chandrayaan-3, Japan's SLIM lander will enter the Moon's orbit about three to four months after launch, orbit the moon for a month, and descent after four to six months.
The astronauts will reach the orbiting lab in their SpaceX capsule on Sunday, replacing four astronauts living up there since March.
Chandrayaan-3 successfully performed a soft landing on the moon on August 23, at the same time, a video is going viral on Facebook claiming that it was captured by Chandrayaan-3. When we fact-checked this video, it turned out to be deceptive and misleading.
"What a way to demonstrate new technologies AND achieve India’s first soft landing on another celestial body. Well done, I am thoroughly impressed," said Josef Aschbacher, Director-General of European Space Agency.
Nelson is the Ranking Member on the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee and is known as the leading space program advocate in the US Congress.

Since flight controllers accidentally sent the wrong command more than a week ago that tilted Voyager 2's antenna away from Earth, the spacecraft has been drifting further and further into interstellar space.
