Out of This World Discoveries: Space Station Research in 2025

As Earth completed its orbit around the Sun to close out 2025, the International Space Station circled our planet more than 5,800 times. Serving as humanity’s unique laboratory in space, the station has hosted thousands of experiments and technology demonstrations, advancing science in ways that cannot be replicated on Earth. In 2025 alone, more than […]

Revolutionising astronaut fitness for deep space missions

As we prepare for missions beyond Earth orbit, one crucial challenge remains: keeping astronauts healthy in microgravity. Without daily exercise, their muscles, bones and cardiovascular systems weaken, which could impact mission success and astronaut safety, especially in destinations such as the Moon or Mars, where crew will have to operate autonomously immediately after landing.

The countdown to clean orbits has begun with ESA’s Zero Debris Charter

Space is rapidly becoming the world’s most congested frontier. What was once a domain of scientific exploration is now a crowded commercial arena, a global infrastructure layer critical to communications, navigation, climate monitoring and defense. Yet this dependence is threatened by a growing, largely invisible hazard: orbital debris. The European Space Agency’s Zero Debris Technical […] The post The countdown to clean orbits has begun with ESA’s Zero Debris Charter appeared first on SpaceNews.

Hubble Observes Ghostly Cloud Alive with Star Formation

While this eerie NASA Hubble Space Telescope image may look ghostly, it’s actually full of new life. Lupus 3 is a star-forming cloud about 500 light-years away in the constellation Scorpius.  White wisps of gas swirl throughout the region, and in the lower-left corner resides a dark dust cloud. Bright T Tauri stars shine at […]

Multiple spacecraft track evolving solar storm to improve space weather forecasts

Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Jan 14, 2026 At times the sun ejects massive clouds of energetic material into space, and these events can disturb satellites, threaten astronauts and even affect power grids on the ground. Researchers are working to understand how these eruptions travel through the solar system so they can develop reliable space weather forecasts that protect critical technology and infrastructure.

Slow orbital wobble patterns drive ancient greenhouse climate swings

Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Jan 13, 2026 When audiences watched the film The Day After Tomorrow, they saw an exaggerated Hollywood depiction of abrupt climate disruption, but the underlying concept that Earth's climate can shift rapidly has a firm scientific basis. During the last Ice Age, Greenland temperatures jumped by as much as 16 degrees Celsius within decades and repeated surges of icebergs disrupted the North Atlantic, events k

Frozen hydrogen cyanide crystals may have helped spark early chemistry for life

Los Angeles CA (SPX) Jan 15, 2026 Hydrogen cyanide is highly poisonous to humans, yet new work suggests it could have played a constructive role in the emergence of life on early Earth and in other cold environments in the solar system and beyond. At very low temperatures this molecule forms solid crystals, and those crystals can host chemistry that would normally be far too slow or even impossible under such frigid conditions.

Early universe dark matter born red hot before cooling

Los Angeles CA (SPX) Jan 14, 2026 Researchers at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities and Universite Paris-Saclay report that dark matter in the early universe may have started out moving at nearly the speed of light, challenging the long held assumption that it had to be born cold and slow. Their work suggests that the universe's dominant unseen matter component could have been incredibly hot at birth yet still cooled suffic

NASA reports record heat but omits reference to climate change

Washington, United States (AFP) Jan 14, 2026 Don't say the c-word. Global temperatures soared in 2025, but a NASA statement published Wednesday alongside its latest benchmark annual report makes no reference to climate change, in line with President Donald Trump's push to deny the reality of planetary heating as a result of human activities. That marks a sharp break from last year's communications, issued under the administration o

So, as humans aim to set foot on Mars in the coming decades, researchers are seeking to learn how flames spark and spread in space - and how best to stamp them out.

Feed documentation

REFERENCE

Where does this space news come from?

Every story on the Delta-V news feed is written and published by an outside outlet — SpaceNews, NASASpaceflight, Space.com, ESA, Ars Technica and dozens more — and reaches the page through the Spaceflight News API. Delta-V displays the publisher's own headline, thumbnail and summary, then links straight to their site. Delta-V does not host, rewrite or republish article text.

How often is the spaceflight news feed updated?

The feed is re-fetched every thirty minutes and always ordered newest first, so a story normally appears on Delta-V within an hour of the publisher posting it. Each card shows how long ago its story was filed, and hovering the timestamp gives the exact publication time in UTC.

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

Yes. The source chips above the feed narrow it to a single outlet, and the search box matches text in headlines and summaries. Both controls write to the URL — /news?source=SpaceNews or /news?q=starship — so a filtered feed can be bookmarked, shared or reopened from browser history.

Do these articles open on Delta-V or on the publisher's site?

Every headline opens the publisher's own page in a new tab. Delta-V is an index, not a mirror: the reporting, the images and the ad revenue belong to the outlet that produced the story.

Where do I find launch dates rather than news?

Launch schedules live on the Delta-V launch pages, which carry a live countdown, pad, vehicle and mission detail for every upcoming orbital flight. The news feed covers reporting about spaceflight; the launch schedule covers the flights themselves.
