Ongoing missions to Mars and even retired ones, like InSight, continue to enhance our understanding of the planet. Despite InSight's official end in December 2022 due to power constraints, its data analysis has unveiled surprising findings, such as Mars' increasing rotation speed each year.

India’s Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft has captured stunning views of the moon before its planned landing near the south pole. The mission aims to be the fourth nation to achieve a controlled lunar landing, after a failed attempt in 2019. The success of Chandrayaan-3 would boost India’s space ambitions and inspire future explorers. #MoonMission #Chandrayaan3 #SpaceNews https://mashable.com/article/moon-mission-india-chandrayaan-3?utm_source=flipboard&utm_content=TrueDatter%2Fmagazine%2FBright+Now

India’s latest space mission entered the moon’s orbit on Saturday, aiming for the south pole. This is the country’s second attempt at a lunar landing after a failed one in 2019. The mission could reveal new insights into the moon’s geology and atmosphere and India’s space ambitions. #Chandrayaan #MoonLanding #SpaceNews https://phys.org/news/2023-08-indian-lunar-mission-moon-orbit.html?utm_source=flipboard&utm_content=HariTulsidas%2Fmagazine%2FMind+and+Matter

Looks like China's space program is going to the cats! Venezuela is joining the International Lunar Research Station project with China and Russia. I wonder how they're going to fit all those litter boxes up there... 😹🚀 #catpun #spacenews

New pictures of Jupiter and Uranus from Hubble reveal complex weather activities on these remote gas giant planets. The forecast for Jupiter is blustery winds, while the outlook for Uranus is smoggy as northern summer approaches: https://bit.ly/42tgg0U

NASA punched the sky ... and it worked.
Two independent measurements show that NASA's DART mission to deflect the trajectory of an asteroid succeeded.
Incredibly, DART's amazingly accurate long-shot punch to an asteroid's face was made even stronger than the impact alone by the force of the blast ejecting material from impact site. A real one-two punch that might *** save the planet *** someday.

Insider: A mysterious Russian satellite with a shady mission has broken apart in Earth's orbit, creating a hazardous cloud of debris zipping around the planet and menacing other satellites, US Space Force announced.
The 18th Space Defense Squadron said on Twitter Monday that it had confirmed a satellite called Kosmos 2499 had broken apart into 85 pieces.
