Blue Origin's New Glenn Rocket Success: Blue Origin celebrated a significant milestone with the successful launch of its New Glenn rocket, deploying a NASA science mission destined for Mars. The highlight was the first successful landing of the rocket's first stage on an autonomous drone ship, showcasing advanced engineering and precision technology crucial for future missions.
Chinese Astronauts' Safe Return: Three astronauts aboard the Tiangong Space Station faced a tense situation when cracks were discovered in their Shenzhou 20 spacecraft's window due to micrometeoroid impacts. Fortunately, they were able to transfer to the newly arrived Shenzhou 21 spacecraft for a safe return to Earth, turning a potential disaster into a valuable research opportunity.
Comet C 2025 K1 Atlas Breaks Apart: Comet C 2025 K1, also known as Atlas, put on a spectacular show as it fragmented after a close encounter with the sun. Astronomers captured footage of the comet breaking into at least three pieces, providing a rare chance to study its pristine material and gain insights into the early solar system.
Discovery of the Jinlin Crater: Geologists in southern China have discovered the Jinlin Crater, a nearly one-kilometer-wide impact site formed within the last 11,700 years. This finding is significant as it is the largest crater from this time period and enhances our understanding of asteroid impacts on Earth, aiding in planetary defense efforts.
