The moon passes by a pair of planets. We have one of the closest full moons of the year. Venus gets away from the lion. And learn about the Saturn Nebula, named for the planet it sort of looks like in some views.

Listeners, Mars missions are generating exciting headlines this week. Two spacecraft called ESCAPADE—short for Escape and Plasma Acceleration and Dynamics Explorers—have arrived in Florida, ready for launch aboard Blue Origin’s powerful new Glenn rocket. According to Space.com, Rocket Lab built and delivered the twin probes, named Blue and Gold, to NASA’s Kennedy Space Center on September 22nd. This milestone marks the final phase before launch preparations officially begin. The mission, part of

When the Japanese spacecraft Hayabusa [Hi ya Boo sa] visited the near Earth asteroid Itokawa in 2005 it found this 2000 foot by 800 foot elliptical world to have a variety of surface features. Instead of being a solid object like some asteroids, Itokawa is a rubble pile of boulders and pebbles held together by it's tiny gravity. The total volume of pebbles seems to be comparable to the volume of large rocks and boulders which make up Itokawa , however, the depths of the pebbles or their

Rogue Planet's Dazzling Auroras: The James Webb Space Telescope has made an astonishing discovery of intense auroral displays on the rogue planet SIMP-0136, which drifts through interstellar space without a star. Researchers found that these auroras, likely generated by an unseen moon, contribute to heating the planet's upper atmosphere, with temperatures soaring over 1500 degrees Celsius and clouds composed of silicate grains.Astrosat Celebrates a Decade: India's first dedicated space astronomy
