The Psyche mission, on its way to study an asteroid of the same name, approached within 2,864 miles of the red planet on May 15

Not quite halfway through a six-year sojourn through the Solar System, a NASA spacecraft used a close encounter with Mars last week as a dress rehearsal for its arrival at the Solar System’s largest metal asteroid in 2029.

NASA is testing a next-generation space computer chip that could give spacecraft the ability to operate far more independently in deep space. The radiation-hardened processor is showing performance levels hundreds of times beyond current spaceflight computers while surviving punishing tests designed to mimic the harsh conditions of space.

NASA’s Psyche spacecraft has sent back a few of the prettiest pictures of Mars seen in years. On its big trip through wide space, the ship flew very close to the Red Planet and took bright blue pictures,

NASA's Psyche spacecraft will slingshot past Mars on Friday, on its way toward a rare metal-rich asteroid.

NASA’s Psyche spacecraft skimmed past Mars in a precision flyby that helped catapult it deeper into space toward its ultimate target: the bizarre metal-rich asteroid Psyche. During the encounter, it snapped detailed images of heavily cratered Martian terrain,

The probe launched almost 50 years ago and is the farthest human-made object from Earth. Shutting down one of its scientific devices will help it conserve energy and continue traveling toward the edge

NASA's twin Voyager spacecraft are still flying in interstellar space. But their power is dwindling, and it's unclear how much longer they can last.
