In the 1990s, however, NASA's Galileo spacecraft captured magnetic measurements near Callisto that suggested that its ice shell surface—much like that of Europa, another moon of Jupiter—may ...

The second-ever commercial landing on the moon comes amid a flurry of lunar exploration activity that will see around a dozen ...

Using data collected by NASA's Juno spacecraft as it flew past Jupiter's highly volcanic moon Io in late 2023 and again in ...

Space missions have set out to search for alien life in the hidden oceans across our solar system - and now, researchers might have a new one to investigate. A new study has strengthened the ...

Observations acquired from the Galileo spacecraft indicate that Callisto (left) reacts inductively to Jupiter’s (right) time-varying magnetic field. New research suggests that this reaction ...

NASA's Galileo spacecraft took this image of the Moon on December 7, 1992, showing the bright Tycho crater at the bottom. This image, captured by Lunar Orbiter 2, shows Copernicus crater on the Moon ...

NASA’s Galileo spacecraft, which was designed to study the large, gaseous planet Jupiter, as well as its moons, discovered something peculiar about Callisto. It appeared to react to Jupiter’s changing ...

NASA's Galileo mission, which launched into space in 1989, was designed to study Jupiter, its moons, and its surrounding invisible magnetic bubble, called the magnetosphere. The spacecraft had 35 ...

Earlier this week, Saturn gained a whopping 128 new official moons, as the International Astronomical Union recognised ...
