How can winds at Earth's surface influence the orbits of satellites in space? What makes a planet habitable? These are some of the questions two new NASA-funded efforts will tackle at ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ Boulder.
This week, NASA announced that it has given the green light to Libera, a new space mission that will record how much energy leaves our planet’s atmosphere.
The Hubble Space Telescope is helping find new ways to combat gender bias, which could have implications for other business sectors.
Gregory Whiting and his research group are preparing for the thrill of a lifetime: two parabolic flights, each expected to provide around 10 minutes of reduced gravity to test and model how 3D printing of functional materials works in lunar gravity.
Scientists have finally scaled the equivalent of the Rocky Mountain range in space.
Researchers have taken the closest look yet at the Kepler 51 star system, home to the lowest-density planets ever discovered.
A type of Martian aurora first identified by NASA’s MAVEN spacecraft in 2016 is much more common than scientists originally thought.
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe has gotten closer to the sun than any other object designed and developed by humans—and ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ Boulder scientists have been along for the ride.
A new machine learning tool, developed by scientists at CIRES and NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI), can improve space weather forecasts and understanding of solar data.
Paul Sanchez, a scientist in aerospace engineering, is getting an asteroid named after him. And it's actually two asteroids: His namesake is a binary system made up of two rocky bodies orbiting around each other in space.
