The gun that shoots the tiny, space-like bullets towards the shield material comprises two phases, the first of which launches a projectile using regular gunpowder.

In the infinite vastness of space, there is an immeasurable amount of potential for harm. Even a small mistake while exploring space could result in a catastrophic collision. Representatives of several companies working on commercial space stations recently said that the lack of clarity from the federal government on who...
The gamma-ray burst (GRB), the most potent class of explosions in the cosmos, which is responsible for the emission, is one of the brightest events ever recorded.
While the majority of theories about how the moon formed claim that it formed from the accumulation of debris over time, resulting in an enormous mass that collided with the Earth, a new study with supercomputer suggests a different perspective that the moon was created in hours, not in days.
The most recent image of two interacting galaxies, floating side by side, from the Hubble Space Telescope illustrates that even in its older years, the telescope is still capable of taking us into deep space.
At least every other week, NASA says the space agency will release a new image depicting a galaxy pair or spectrum from the James Webb Space Telescope on the mission’s blog.
The James Webb Space Telescope and the Hubble Space Telescope, two of NASA’s Great Observatories, have captured images of a special NASA experiment designed to deliberately smash a spacecraft into a small asteroid in the first-ever in-space test for planetary defense.
While two of the Milky Way’s largest satellite galaxies, the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds, have spent billions of years orbiting one another as they are pulled in toward our home galaxy, a study, just published in Nature, has puzzled astronomers as to why these dwarf galaxies remain intact, with ongoing vigorous star formation.
Why on earth is it necessary that the extraterrestrial beings should have senses like the earthians? Since the Earth’s discovery, many people have believed that there are other life forms in outer space. In order to survive, any creature needs a sense of hearing, sight or smell, or touch, at...
NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART), which is the agency’s first attempt to move an asteroid in space, successfully impacted its asteroid target on Monday.
For the first time in the whole human history, humans are intentionally going to crash a spacecraft with, Dimorphos, a small asteroid, roaming on its path nearly 7 million miles away from earth.
Deepening the mystery of the sources of these deep space phenomena, astronomers say they have detected a mysterious fast radio burst (FRB) signal from a binary system.
The world’s first planetary defense test mission, NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART), has captured a brilliant spectacle of Jupiter and its four largest moons.
Neptune does not appear blue to Webb because its Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) only sees objects in the near-infrared spectrum between 0.6 and 5 microns.
NASA’s InSight lander has heard its first seismic waves from four meteoroid impacts, which took place on Mars in 2020 and 2021.
