NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory spots record-breaking asteroid in pre-survey observations

Washington DC (SPX) Jan 08, 2026 As part of the NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory First Look event in June 2025, Rubin announced that it had observed thousands of asteroids cruising about our Solar System, about 1900 of which have been confirmed as never-before-seen. Within the flurry, a team of astronomers has discovered 19 super- and ultra-fast-rotating asteroids. One of these is the fastest-spinning asteroid larger than 500

Puffy young exoplanets reveal origin of super Earths

Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Jan 08, 2026 Astronomers have identified a young planetary system that links newborn giant worlds to the compact super Earths and sub Neptunes that dominate the Milky Way. V1298 Tau, a star about 20 million years old, hosts four planets between the sizes of Neptune and Jupiter in close-in orbits, offering a snapshot of planets during a brief and dynamic stage of evolution. Over ten years, researchers c

Milky Way black hole flare leaves X ray echoes in nearby gas cloud

Los Angeles CA (SPX) Jan 07, 2026 Our galaxy's supermassive black hole is among the faintest known, yet new observations indicate it was far more active in the recent past on cosmic timescales. Sagittarius A*, at the Milky Way's center, appears to have produced a powerful X ray flare within the last few hundred to 1,000 years, leaving an observable imprint in surrounding gas.

Jupiter's moon Europa has a seafloor that may be quiet and lifeless

St. Louis MO (SPX) Jan 06, 2026 The giant planet Jupiter has nearly 100 known moons, yet none have captured the interest and imagination of astronomers and space scientists quite like Europa, an ice-shrouded world that is thought to possess a vast ocean of liquid salt water. For decades, scientists have wondered whether that ocean could harbor the right conditions for life, placing Europa near the top of the list of solar syst

Star like early galaxies challenge views of cosmic evolution

Los Angeles CA (SPX) Jan 07, 2026 Scientists at the University of Missouri have identified a small group of unusual objects in the early universe that look like stars in images yet behave like compact galaxies when analyzed in detail. Using NASAs James Webb Space Telescope JWST, Haojing Yan and colleagues at Mizzous College of Arts and Science found that these sources appear as single points of light while carrying the spectral

We have no idea what most of the universe is made of, but scientists are closer than ever to finding out

College Station TX (SPX) Jan 06, 2026 When it comes to understanding the universe, what we know is only a sliver of the whole picture. Dark matter and dark energy make up about 95% of the universe, leaving only 5% "ordinary matter," or what we can see.

NASA's IXPE Measures White Dwarf Star for First Time

Huntsville AL (SPX) Jan 05, 2026 For the first time, scientists have used NASA's IXPE (Imaging X-ray Polarization Explorer) to study a white dwarf star. Using IXPE's unique X-ray polarization capability, astronomers examined a star called the intermediate polar EX Hydrae, unlocking the geometry of energetic binary systems. In 2024, IXPE spent nearly one week focused on EX Hydrae, a white dwarf star system located in the c

SpaceX’s IPO will make space investment far less niche

Spend enough time investing in space and expectations change. The industry does not advance through clean inflection points that resolve uncertainty, and progress rarely aligns with the milestones investors are accustomed to tracking. More often, space infrastructure is absorbed gradually into other systems, registering as essential only after it is already embedded. That dynamic, rather […] The post SpaceX’s IPO will make space investment far less niche appeared first on SpaceNews.

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.
