An explosion occurred on Saturday, Nov 4, 2017 during a test of a "Block 5" Merlin engine, which will be used in a future generation of the company's Falcon 9 rockets.
In this new space age, we are reaching far beyond the Moon and space travel and considering colonizing other planets. Stephen Hawking has expressed just how dire this need to move away from Earth may be.
The most powerful rocket this generation has ever seen, SpaceX's new Falcon Heavy rocket, launches no earlier than December, 2017 according to the Kennedy Space Center.
Recent analysis of US Air Force budgets show ULA (United Launch Alliance) as charging the US air force $422 million per launch in 2020 versus about $96 million that Spacex is charging the air force.
Einstein-Rosen or "ER" bridges, are equivalent to entangled quantum particles, also known as Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen or "EPR" pairs. The quantum connection between wormholes prevents their collapse without involving exotic matter.
SpaceX successfully launched and landed another Falcon 9 rocket Monday. It launched South Korean communications satellite. This is Spacex's third launch in October and their 16th so far in 2017.
Antimatter is the most energy dense material in the universe. Positron dynamics core innovations is the ability to generate intense beams of cold positrons using an array of moderators.
It was first seen just a month ago. A tiny blip of light was seen to be moving through the sky by the PanSTARRS1 telescope in Hawaii.
The number-crunching which followed was automatic. The results were unusual.
Fully automated mining and factories and advanced robotics on the moon and asteroids could be leveraged for the exponential development of space. Here we review some of the developments of robotics for mining and factories on earth.
If you haven't heard this before, I'm sure it sounds crazy to you. It did to me too. But a serious number of rigorous experiments have established this concept and clarified it quite well: The universe really is flat.
Last September, SpaceX was fueling its Falcon 9 for a routine test fire before launch when a composite liner inside the upper-stage fuel tank failed, letting oxygen seep in.
The prospect of humans one day visiting another planet has never seemed more possible than it has in recent years, but several more obstacles need to be overcome before this can become reality.
A Japanese space probe data confirmed that an enormous cavern stretching for about 50 kilometers exists beneath the moon's surface, offering a possible protected site for future lunar bases, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency said Oct. 18.
Bigelow Aerospace and United Launch Alliance (ULA) are working together to launch a B330 expandable module on ULA's Vulcan launch vehicle. The launch would place a B330 outfitted module in Low Lunar Orbit by the end of 2022 to serve as a lunar depo
There is a lot of talk about a hypersonic weapons arms race to create missiles and then a decade later hypersonic drones and then a decade after that hypersonic spy planes and fighter planes.
Blue Origin's new rocket engine just took its first fiery breath on Thursday, a major step forward in the quest to end U.S. reliance on Russian engines.
A radio frequency (RF) resonant cavity thruster, EmDrive, is a controversial proposed type of propellentless electromagnetic thruster with a microwave cavity, designed to produce thrust from an electromagnetic field inside the cavity.
