11 bit studios' sci-fi adventure makes you team leader and asks you to balance base-building, survival, branching narratives, and keeping your team motivated.

On Episode 165 of This Week In Space, Rod Pyle and Tariq Malik talk with NASA astronaut Nick Hague, the first U.S. Space Force Guardian to launch to the International Space Station in that role.

Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin has revealed the six people who will fly on the company's 13th space tourism mission, though a launch date has not yet been announced.

Celebrities William Shatner and Neil deGrasse Tyson lead the “Universe is Absurd” show, which is hosted by Future of Space.

With this week's expected arrival of a visiting crew delayed, science and maintenance work on board the International Space Station was lighter than usual for the Expedition 73 crew.

The James Webb Space Telescope has notched another milestone, capturing a direct image of one of the coldest and oldest known exoplanets.

The coverage offered by the Fliti Galaxy Projector is incredible, but it doesn’t have the best build quality.

The lagoon nebulas were observed under the near-pristine dark skies of northern Arizona.

On the Mars rover's mission Sol 46 or Earth date April 6, 2021,

During the latter part of June, Mars will put on a couple of eye-catching shows, teaming up first with a bright star and then, late this month, with the moon.

As astronomers found more and more exoplanets in recent years, they've discovered an unusual gap in the population. It's called the Neptunian Desert, a curious scarcity of Neptune-sized exoplanets orbiting close to their stars. Researchers just discovered an exoplanet in the Neptunian Desert around a Sun-like star. Can it help explain the Desert?

Now I know this sounds like a low-budget knockoff of Five Nights at Freddy's, but it's the real deal

The Earth's atmosphere is protected by a magnetosphere, but Mars lacks this protective shield and lost its atmosphere to space long ago through interactions with the solar wind. In a new paper, scientists report that they have directly observed this process of "atmospheric sputtering," watching how incoming ions from the solar wind directly cause neutral atmospheric particles to escape. They found the process is stronger than anticipated, especially in solar storms.
