SpaceX's second launch attempt of its giant Starship rocket on Saturday once again ended in destruction, though the company declared the test flight a success, with the Starship second stage reaching the edge of space before contact was lost.

SpaceX's giant Starship rocket may fly again as soon as Friday, November 17. According to the company, the final hurdle is being given formal and final regulatory approval by the US FAA before the 397-ft (121-m) spacecraft can lift off.

Radio telescopes are picking up strange signals from an intelligent lifeform – ourselves. A new study has shown that satellite constellations like SpaceX’s Starlink swarm are unintentionally leaking signals that can interfere with vital observations.

ESA's Euclid mission to map the universe and learn more about dark energy and dark matter is on its way. On July 1, 2023 at 5:12 pm CEST the space telescope lifted off from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.

History was made today as a private company leapfrogged ahead of NASA by launching the largest, most powerful rocket ever. At 8:36 am CDT, SpaceX's uncrewed Starship lifted off from the company's Starbase in Texas on an orbital test flight.

When SpaceX launches its lunar mission scheduled for 2026, it’ll be accompanied by Venturi Astrolab’s Flexible Logistics and Exploration (FLEX) rover, making it the largest, most capable rover to ever travel to the Moon.

With its Starlink satellite-based internet now up and running in many corners of the globe and touching all seven continents, SpaceX is introducing a dedicated arm for national security applications called Starshield.

SpaceX has today fired up its mighty Falcon Heavy rocket, the most powerful in operation today, for the first time since 2019 to successfully lift a set of satellites into orbit for the US Space Force.

NASA is now exploring how Hubble can remain operational further into the future with the help of SpaceX’s Dragon capsule, which might be used to dock with the telescope and shift it to a more stable orbit.

SpaceX launched its first Starlink satellite in 2019 with a vision of blanketing the globe in high-speed internet, and it has this week ticked off an important milestone in this grand plan, beaming the service down to scientists in Antarctica.

SpaceX is looking to expand the reach of its Starlink internet service, through a new partnership with T-Mobile that will see the telecommunications giant's wireless network combine with orbiting satellites to fill holes in its current coverage.

It was a case of two steps forward, one step back for SpaceX’s Starship development program today, with a dramatic explosion from a prototype of the company’s Mars-bound rocket during testing on the ground.
