Chemical reactions that may indicate the existence of life have been discovered in the interior of Enceladus, a moon of Saturn. According to the analysis of data from the Cassini probe, organic compounds that are precursors to life have been found.
NASA's FIRMS satellite monitoring project recorded a number of fires at gas and oil refining facilities in Russia. Among them is a fire in the area of the Lukoil-Korobkovsky gas processing plant and the Yefimovka oil pumping station in the Volgograd region.
Blue Origin is preparing its New Glenn rocket for its first major launch in late October or November. It will deliver NASA's ESCAPADE probes to Mars to study the planet's atmosphere.
The average daily volume of Russian seaborne oil shipments for the four weeks to October 5 was 3. 57 million barrels per day. This comes amid drone attacks on refineries, which are forcing the redirection of supplies to export terminals, straining their capacity.
NASA experts have determined that Venus' clouds are 62% water in the form of hydrates, and not just sulfuric acid. Sulfuric acid accounts for about 22%, and iron compounds have also been detected.
The Full Moon on October 7 in Aries will activate the financial zones of Ukraine's horoscope, which will affect material support and international aid. The astrologer predicts successful operations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the restoration of territories due to the harmonious connection of Mars, Uranus, and Saturn.
Scientists have discovered complex organic molecules in the water geysers of Saturn's moon Enceladus, using data from NASA's Cassini mission. This discovery increases the likelihood that Enceladus is habitable.
SpaceX has announced the flight date for the Starship Flight 11 mega-rocket for October 13 at 7:15 PM ET. The launch will take place from the SpaceX Starbase spaceport in South Texas, with the broadcast starting 30 minutes before launch.
From September 23 to September 30, 2025, 154,000 civil servants left US federal agencies, marking the largest outflow of personnel in almost 80 years. This has led to problems in weather forecasting, food safety, healthcare, and space projects, particularly at NASA.
NASA scientists, using the TESS satellite and the James Webb Space Telescope, have discovered exoplanet WD 1856+534b, which is larger than Jupiter and located in a "forbidden zone" around a dying star. This planet, 5.8 billion years old, is located 82 light-years from Earth and is the coldest exoplanet ever directly observed.
NASA is planning a ten-day crewed lunar expedition around the Moon in February 2026, which will be the first such flight in 50 years. The Artemis II mission will test the rocket and spacecraft systems, flying a record distance beyond the Moon's orbit.
Ukraine plans to form Space Forces by December 31, 2025, as stipulated in the government's action program. By the end of 2025, Ukraine aims to achieve 60% operational readiness of integrated air and missile defense, cyber and space components.
NASA's VIPER rover will search for volatile resources, such as ice, on the Moon's surface, collecting data for future exploration. Blue Origin will deliver VIPER to the Moon in late 2027 using its Blue Moon MK1 lander.
