From measuring one's mass to boosting the almost 1 million pounds that comprise the entire orbiting complex, the Expedition 73 crew aboard the International Space Station had a busy week in Earth orbit.

In 2026, a first-of-its-kind spacecraft—launched on a rocket dropped out of a plane—will attempt to save NASA’s Swift observatory from a fiery demise. Yes, really.

A team of researchers has confirmed stars ring loud and clear in a "key" that will harmonize well with the science goals and capabilities of NASA's upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope.

The new study involved taking a fresh look at the "Altamura Man," which is an exceptionally well-preserved Neanderthal skeleton covered in a thick layer of calcite, sometimes called "cave popcorn." The researchers' findings suggest that the size of Neanderthal noses might not have had anything to do with living in cold temperatures.
