NASA is set to launch four astronauts on Artemis II, a 10-day crewed mission around the moon marking humanity's farthest spaceflight in 54 years and a critical step toward lunar surface landing before China.
Researchers have identified genes (FGF2 and BMP2) that activate mammalian tissue regeneration and override scarring, suggesting humans possess latent healing capabilities similar to limb-regenerating animals.
Household formation has declined for the third consecutive year in 2025, exacerbating America's housing affordability crisis. Fewer new households are forming, which could further drive up housing costs despite construction efforts.

Burnt animal bones discovered in South Africa's Wonderwerk Cave may represent the oldest evidence of human fire use, dating back 1.8 million years and pushing back the timeline by hundreds of thousands of years.
La astronauta estadounidense Christina Koch recibe el Premio Princesa de Asturias de la Concordia 2026 por ser la primera mujer en orbitar la Luna en la misión Artemis II y su mensaje de unidad global.
La astronauta Christina Koch, primera mujer en viajar a la cara oculta de la Luna en la misión Artemis II, ha sido galardonada con el Premio Princesa de Asturias de la Concordia 2026 por su contribución a extender las fronteras de la humanidad.
NASA has retired MAVEN, its Mars atmospheric orbiter, after 11 years of operation. The mission produced 800 scientific papers and mapped 18% of Mars' surface, earning praise from scientists as one of the most successful Mars missions.
Samsung rolls out One UI 9 Beta 3 to Galaxy S26 devices in select markets with a 1.7GB patch focused on bug fixes including video streaming crashes and camera issues.
Japan's SORA-Q, a baseball-sized transforming rover built with Takara-TOMY toy technology, successfully explored the moon autonomously in January 2024, proving miniature robots can conduct meaningful science in hard-to-reach lunar areas.
A crescent moon will align with Venus, Jupiter, and other planets in a rare celestial conjunction visible across western regions this week, creating a stunning sunset display for skywatchers.
The moon will pass in front of Venus on June 17, creating a rare daytime occultation visible across 48 U.S. states. This astronomical event allows observers to see Venus disappear in broad daylight.
UC San Diego researchers discovered that senescent cells, traditionally linked to aging, play crucial roles in developing the brain's protective barriers during embryonic development.
Rice University scientists developed an RNA-based barcoding system that identifies previously unknown relationships between bacteriophages and bacterial hosts, enabling scalable microbiome engineering and potential antibiotic alternatives.
NASA will discuss an ambitious mission to boost the orbit of its Swift space telescope using a private robotic spacecraft, marking the first time a private craft will service a U.S. government satellite.
Samsung reveló accidentalmente las especificaciones completas del Galaxy A27 en su sitio web oficial para República Checa antes de eliminarlo rápidamente. El teléfono de gama media incluye pantalla AMOLED de 6,7 pulgadas, triple cámara y procesador Snapdragon 6 Gen3.
Researchers using Type Ia supernovae data confirm the universe continues expanding at an accelerated rate, rebutting 2025 findings that suggested dark energy's weakening.
Osaka researchers developed a method to reconstruct and experimentally produce ancestral rhodopsin proteins, revealing how ancient light-sensing proteins functioned and evolved.
New research suggests completely eliminating sugar from low-fat diets may disrupt gut bacteria, increase inflammation, and harm metabolic health, challenging the assumption that zero sugar is always beneficial.
A whole-genome sequencing study of 110 Italian children identified genetic variants responsible for neurodevelopmental disorders in 29 families, advancing diagnostic capabilities and revealing previously unknown disease-associated genes.
A 24-researcher study across 18 countries found that loneliness—not mere social isolation—significantly increases cognitive impairment and mortality risk in adults over 50, with a 10% increase in loneliness reports linked to 8-9% higher severe cognitive impairment risk.
Australian research shows introducing eggs in infants' first year reduced egg allergy rates by 17%, with even greater benefits for babies with eczema, validating 2016 feeding guidelines.
In 1979, NASA's Voyager 1 captured the first active volcano beyond Earth on Jupiter's moon Io, discovered by navigation engineer Linda Morabito in a routine positioning image, confirming theoretical predictions about tidal heating.
Research identifies 219 lipid types in Indian millet varieties, including bioactive compounds with potential anti-diabetic and anti-inflammatory benefits, positioning the crop as both sustainable and therapeutically valuable.
The Moon enters its Waxing Crescent phase on June 17, 2026, with 14% illumination visible to the naked eye. The next Full Moon is expected on June 29.
