The SPHEREx telescope will create the most colorful map of the cosmos, while the four satellites of the PUNCH mission track the evolution of the solar wind in three dimensions.

The $488 million Spherex mission aims to explain how galaxies formed and evolved over billions of years, and how the universe expanded so fast in its first moments.

NASA’s newest space telescope rocketed into orbit Tuesday to map the entire sky like never before — a sweeping look at hundreds of millions of galaxies and their shared cosmic glow since the beginning of time.

NASA astronauts Barry "Butch" Wilmore and Sunita "Suni" Williams are closer to getting home, nine months after arriving on Boeing’s Starliner. A capsule is set to arrive at the space station Thursday.

NASA and SpaceX successfully launched their SPHEREx and PUNCH missions into orbit Tuesday night from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, to "collect" data on the sun and millions of galaxies.

There was a glimmer in the air tonight at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, and it wasn't only because a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket took to the skies carrying precious NASA cargo.
