A future Moon base is closer to reality than ever before. With missions like Artemis 3 planned for 2026 and a lunar outpost on the horizon, one challenge stands in the way: energy. Getting enough ...

Sunspot region 4114 has unleashed its most powerful solar flare yet — an X1.9 class that erupted late June 19, triggering ...

Melting moon dust, found at the bottom of astronaut's shoes, would save on costly, heavy transport of solar cells in space.

Unlike a total solar eclipse, part of the sun is still visible during a partial solar eclipse, so there is no darkening of the sky or visible solar corona.

Future lunar bases could be powered by solar cells made on-site from melted moon dust. Building items on the moon, using materials that are already there, would be more practical than shipping ...

Sometimes sleep takes priority over cool celestial events. Luckily, you can catch a partial solar eclipse this month and a blood moon again in 2026.

On March 29, a partial solar eclipse will cast a shadow on the sun for people in the Northeast. See when, where and how to look.

Astronauts could build solar panels using the Moon to allow us to live in space, scientists have suggested. The new research would allow future explorers of space to build their own ways of ...

While last night on Earth we got a lunar eclipse, the Blue Ghost lander on the moon saw the opposite - a solar eclipse.

While parts of the Earth saw a total lunar eclipse, the Blue Ghost lunar lander captured stunning imagery of a solar eclipse on Friday. See the rare view here.
