There’s no end in sight for a space ‘nuclear renaissance’

A widespread demand for nuclear power has led some to call this period a “nuclear renaissance,” one that will continue to build momentum in 2026. This growing need is being driven by two primary use cases: small modular nuclear reactors for cloud infrastructure and terrestrial data center needs, and nuclear electric reactors for lunar surface […] The post There’s no end in sight for a space ‘nuclear renaissance’ appeared first on SpaceNews.

Tiny Mars' big impact on Earth's climate

Riverside, CA (SPX) Jan 12, 2026 At half the size of Earth and one-tenth its mass, Mars is a featherweight as far as planets go. And yet, new research reveals the extent to which Mars is quietly tugging on Earth's orbit and shaping the cycles that drive long-term climate patterns here, including ice ages. Stephen Kane, a professor of planetary astrophysics at UC Riverside, began this project with doubts about recent studi

Iron rich asteroids show surprising resilience in impact simulation study

London, UK (SPX) Jan 08, 2026 Physicists at the University of Oxford have contributed to a new experimental study that shows iron rich asteroids can withstand far more energy than previously estimated before breaking apart. The work provides direct insight into how metallic asteroid material behaves under impact like conditions and could help refine planetary defense strategies. Recent demonstration missions such as NA

Ancient impact may explain moons contrasting sides

Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Jan 13, 2026 For decades scientists have puzzled over why the moons two hemispheres look so different despite sharing a common origin in the early solar system. The near side that always faces Earth is dominated by dark flat volcanic plains called maria that create the familiar man in the moon pattern seen with the naked eye. In contrast the far side has a much thicker crust and appears as a rugged hea

Ancient deltas reveal vast Martian ocean across northern hemisphere

Berlin, Germany (SPX) Jan 13, 2026 Using high resolution images from several Mars orbiters, an international team led by the University of Bern has identified a system of fan deltas in southeast Coprates Chasma that record the highest stand of an ancient ocean in Mars Valles Marineris. The geomorphologic structures, preserved today as scarp fronted deposits near the lower end of the canyon system, closely resemble classic river d

Bright supernova offers new view of black hole birth

Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Jan 13, 2026 What astronomers know about the birth of a black hole has long mirrored the objects themselves, tending to be dark, difficult to observe, and seemingly quiet despite their immense gravitational influence. Stellar mass black holes form in the final gravitational collapse of massive stars with several tens of the mass of the Sun, and these heavyweights were thought not to produce bright supernova

Mixed crystal phase of superionic water mapped inside giant planets

Berlin, Germany (SPX) Jan 13, 2026 Temperatures of several thousand degrees Celsius and pressures of millions of atmospheres drive water into a superionic state in which hydrogen ions move freely through a solid lattice of oxygen atoms. In this exotic phase, which forms only under extreme conditions, water behaves like a hybrid of solid and liquid and shows very high electrical conductivity. Because this phase can efficient

Feed documentation

REFERENCE

Where does this space news come from?

Every story on the EveryLaunch news feed is written by an outside outlet, like SpaceNews, NASASpaceflight, Space.com, ESA or Ars Technica. It comes in through the Spaceflight News API. EveryLaunch shows the outlet's own headline and summary and links to their site. The art on each card is drawn here from the outlet's name. EveryLaunch doesn't host, rewrite or republish article text.

How often is the spaceflight news feed updated?

EveryLaunch fetches the feed again every 30 minutes, and it's always newest first. Each card shows how long ago the story was filed. Hover over the time to see the exact publication time in UTC.

Can I filter space news by outlet or search for a topic?

Yes. The source buttons above the feed show one outlet at a time, and the search box matches words in headlines and summaries. Both go into the URL, like /news?source=SpaceNews or /news?q=starship, so you can bookmark or share a filtered feed.

Do these articles open on EveryLaunch or on the publisher's site?

Every headline opens the outlet's own page in a new tab. The reporting and its images belong to the outlet that wrote the story, so you read it there.

Where do I find launch dates rather than news?

On the launch pages. Each launch on the schedule has its own page with the pad, the rocket and the mission, and a live countdown once a day is set.
