Japan’s Hayabusa Asteroid Probe: Saga to Appear on the Silver Screen
Updated: 2011-07-31 15:47:43
The saga behind the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency’s (JAXA) Hayabusa asteroid probe is headed for another landing, this time on the silver screen. In fact, a trio of movies is on tap focused on the space probe’s seven year journey to asteroid Itokowa and its arduous space trek. Likened to a robotic Apollo 13 mission, [...]

It's been standard procedure for the space shuttle to make a fly-around and take pictures of the International Space Station just as it's pulling away for the homeward journey. But the procedure was changed for this month's very last visit by the space shuttle Atlantis.
Americans disagree with the decision to retire NASA’s space shuttle program and fear the U.

Despite earlier comments indicating the station would be sunk by 2020, a spokesperson says they hope to extend the station's life.
When NASA’s mega-Mars rover, Curiosity, lands in August 2012, its target zone is Gale Crater. The robot will touch down at the foot of a layered mountain inside the crater that spans 96 miles (154 kilometers) in diameter. This geological feature also holds a mountain rising higher from the crater floor than Mount Rainier rises [...]
