LINK will rescue Swift from a premature atmospheric re-entry, allowing it to continue operations.

Since NASA's Artemis II crew members safely splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on April 10 after their record-setting mission around the moon, science teams have been busy collecting more data and combing through observations collected on the test flight.

Nasa has defended its decision not to select any women for the Artemis III mission, hinting that they were being readied for a Moon landing.

NASA pushed its Deep Space Network beyond its limits during the Artemis I mission nearly four years ago. The global array of deep space communications antennas couldn’t keep up with the routine demands of 40 robotic science missions and the extraordinary surge required by NASA’s Orion space capsule as it flew around the Moon.

NASA announced the four astronauts that will join the next Artemis mission — a test flight vital to putting astronauts back on the surface of the moon.

Commander Randy Bresnik and three others will attempt to dock with two different lunar landers in Earth orbit, paving the way for a future moon landing.

The Artemis III mission, originally aimed at landing on the moon, has evolved into an essential two-week trial in low-Earth orbit. This test will assess the docking systems of spacecraft and landers from industry leaders SpaceX and Blue Origin,

After six months of silence and a failed recovery effort, NASA has officially ended the MAVEN mission. The fragmented telemetry that sealed its fate revealed a spacecraft spinning out of control.
