Progress continues to speed along as NASA's Perseverance rover readies for its launch this summer.

Scientists using NASA's Curiosity rover found that some minerals in rocks at Mars' Gale Crater may have formed in an ice-covered lake.

The Perseverance Rover is one of a kind, and the testing required to get it ready for the mean streets of Mars is also unique.

Destined to become the first aircraft to attempt powered flight on another planet, NASA's Mars Helicopter officially has received a new name: Ingenuity.

NASA's Lunar Flashlight, a briefcase-sized satellite, or CubeSat, will detect surface ice believed to be at the bottom of craters on the Moon that have never been exposed to sunlight. This may help provide water for astronauts exploring the Moon during the Artemis program.

Before NASA’s mighty Space Launch System (SLS) rocket can blast off from the agency’s Kennedy Space Center to send the Orion spacecraft into lunar orbit, teams across the country conduct extensive tests. Guiding that effort are NASA test directors, or NTDs.

With a few weeks to go before the launch period of NASA's Mars 2020 Perseverance rover opens, final preparations of the spacecraft continue at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

The team behind NASA's Curiosity Mars rover is dealing with the same challenges of many remote workers, with a twist: They're operating on Mars

As the world observes the 50th anniversary of Earth Day on April 22, NASA is highlighting the agency’s contributions to improving our home planet’s environment.

Fun — and even educational — NASA activities to do at home.

NASA's Curiosity Mars rover recently set a record for the steepest terrain it's ever climbed. And before doing that, the rover took a selfie, capturing the scene.

With the launch period for NASA's Mars Perseverance rover opening in July, the six-wheeler is reaching significant pre-launch milestones almost daily.
