Mars' dried up oceans and water sources are a productive place to start in the search for life on the red planet. 

A team of researchers from the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev has been selected to be performed in Space-IL's "Beresheet 2" spacecraft expedition.

The test showed that standard satellite parts supplied by the company's partners will work with the launch environment.

NASA's website explains that "this celebration provides opportunities to learn about lunar science and exploration, observe celestial bodies, and honor ... connections to the Moon."

The first-of-its-kind mission - called the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) Mission - will see a spacecraft crash into an asteroid to see if it is possible to change its trajectory.

Artemis III will be the first in a series of missions to bring astronauts to the Moon, including the first woman and the first person of color to be on the Moon.

The technology used to create this replica will also be used to simulate and predict conditions and optimize the spacecraft throughout the duration of its lifespan.

A “potentially hazardous” asteroid the size of a blue whale was set to fly past Earth on Friday.

The 23-ton laboratory is the second module of the station to be built on Earth and shot off into space, the first having blasted off in late April 2021.

China began constructing the space station in April 2021 with the launch of the Tianhe module, the main living quarters, in the first of 11 crewed and uncrewed missions in the undertaking.
