NASA The Artemis II crew captured this view of Earth setting on April 6, 2026, as they flew around the Moon. As the astronauts flew over the Moon’s far side, the crew photographed and described terrain features including impact craters, ancient lava flows, and surface cracks and ridges formed asContinue Reading
A remarkable fossil discovery in southwest China is rewriting the story of how complex animal life began, showing that many key animal groups appeared millions of years earlier than scientists once believed. Dating back over 540 million years, the fossils reveal a surprisingly diverse and advanced ecosystem from the lateContinue Reading

Astrobiology Overview NASA’s Astrobiology Program investigates life in the Universe on many levels: how it began, how it evolved here on Earth, and where and how it might exist elsewhere. Astrobiology is fundamental to NASA’s space exploration goals and organizes multi-disciplinary efforts to answer the underlying question: “Are we alone?”Continue Reading

A colossal ocean current encircling Antarctica—stronger than all the world’s rivers combined—played a far more complex role in shaping Earth’s climate than scientists once thought. New research shows it didn’t form just because ocean gateways opened, but required shifting continents and powerful winds to align. This shift helped pull carbonContinue Reading
