The agency celebrated the one year anniversary of Curiosity's landing on Mars with live events from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory -- featuring rover team members.
NASA's next mission to Mars, the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution or MAVEN, will study the Red Planet's upper atmosphere for clues about what existed there before the atmospheric loss occurred.
After four years as NASA's Deputy Administrator, Lori Garver is leaving the agency to become General Manager of the Air Line Pilots Association.
A fireball from a kilonova, a new kind of stellar blast, spotted by the Hubble Space Telescope in a galaxy almost 4 billion light-years from Earth, is the strongest evidence yet that short-duration gamma ray bursts happen when two small, super-dense stellar objects come together.
Six days after launching from the Tanegashima Space Center in Japan, the automated Kounotori4 H-II Transfer Vehicle or HTV-4, met up with The International Space Station, was captured with the station's robotic arm by the Expedition 36 crew aboard the ISS and was installed on the station's Harmony module.
NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden recently toured Orbital Sciences Corporation's Satellite Manufacturing Facility near Phoenix, Arizona to check out The Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 or OCO-2 satellite.
The first completed liquid hydrogen tank barrel segment for the core stage of NASA's Space Launch System heavy-lift rocket has been rolled off the production line at the Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans.
NASA's SOFIA airborne observatory has returned to Palmdale, California from a two-and-a-half week campaign to study celestial objects from a vantage point in the southern hemisphere.
