The UK Space Agency Accelerator is continually demonstrating the importance of investment, innovation, and commercial growth across the UK space sector. This is further supported by strong results from the 2025 Explore and Leo accelerator cohorts.
A new study warns that space exploration faces an urgent reproductive health crisis. Experts call for immediate international standards to address the biological risks of radiation and microgravity as humans transition to long-term extraterrestrial living.
A new facility designed to support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the UK space sector has officially opened at Airbus Defence and Space’s Stevenage site.
Scientists are using earthquake sensors to track space debris falling to Earth. By detecting sonic booms from re-entering debris, researchers can precisely locate where objects break apart, improving safety as satellite re-entries become more frequent.
New Hubble Space Telescope data confirms that "blue straggler" stars maintain their youthful glow by siphoning fuel from binary companions. This process occurs most frequently in quiet, low-density cosmic neighbourhoods where stellar pairs survive.
Astronomers have identified one of the oldest “dead” galaxies ever observed and discovered new evidence that supermassive black holes can quietly choke off star formation over time, rather than destroying galaxies in sudden, violent events.
NASA has awarded a contract to ARES Technical Services Corporation of McLean, Virginia, to support launch range operations at the agency’s Wallops Flight Facility on Virginia’s Eastern Shore.
An international research project led by the University of Surrey has been awarded £215,100 to explore some of the rarest and most unstable forms of matter in the universe.
For decades, astronomers have believed they understood how giant stars scatter the chemical building blocks of life across the galaxy
However, a new study of...
