A robotic lunar lander built by Texas-based company Firefly has successfully landed on the moon making it only the second private-sector company ever to achieve a soft lunar landing. Former NASA astronaut Leroy Chiao explains why these landings are so rare.

Lunar Trailblazer, an orbiter that shared a launch on Wednesday with the commercial Athena lander, will help scientists understand where the moon’s water is, and what form it takes.

The Lunar Trailblazer Mission, a collaboration between various research institutions including Northern Arizona University, launched to investigate the presence and origin of lunar water. Scientists hope to determine how water is stored on the moon,

The next set of NASA science and technology demonstrations is on its way to the lunar surface, where they will gather data about Earth's nearest neighbor and help pave the way for American astronauts to explore the Moon and beyond,

The rock tour has officially been canceled. After two months of observations, NASA scientists have officially declared Earth safe from “city killer” asteroid 2024 YR4. On Tuesday, the space agency recently placed space rock’s impact probability at just 0.

NASA has all but ruled out asteroid 2024 YR4 as a danger to Earth, reducing its impact probability to just 0.004% in 2032. However, a small risk remains for the Moon. Scientists are seizing the moment to study the asteroid further,

March has great opportunities to spy fast-moving Mercury, stay up late to enjoy a total eclipse of the Moon, and learn about the dark side of the Moon!

Lunar Trailblazer flight controllers are using NASA's Deep Space Network, along with ground-based observatories, to better understand the spacecraft’s orientation in space. But

When astronauts walk on the moon, they'll serve as the eyes, hands, and boots-on-the-ground interpreters supporting the broader teams of scientists on Earth. NASA is leveraging virtual reality to provide high-fidelity,
