“Things worked exactly the way we expected them to work," Demo-2 astronaut Doug Hurley said. " It’s a pretty awe-inspiring trip so far, pretty humbling,”

“I’m very confident that we’ll continue to fund NASA and fund NASA aggressively,” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said shortly after SpaceX's Demo-2 mission successfully docked with the International Space Station.

SpaceX's first Dragon capsule to carry astronauts will remain docked for up to four months at the space station.

The 3:22 p.m. liftoff marked SpaceX’s first launch with people aboard and the first U.S. human orbital launch since the final STS-135 shuttle mission in July 2011.

The Coronavirus Relief Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) legislation includes $60 million for NASA to “prevent, prepare for and respond to coronavirus, domestically or internationally.”

The agency anticipates spending a total of $7 billion over 15 years—shared among multiple companies—to carry cargo to the Gateway as part of its Artemis lunar exploration program.

A SpaceX Dragon 2 test article was destroyed on March 24 during what was to be one of the final tests of the craft’s parachute system ahead of a

The mission will mark the first flight of astronauts aboard a U.S. orbital spaceship since space shuttle Atlantis rolled to a stop at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on July 21, 2011

The 156-1/2-ft.-long core stage launched commercial re-supply missions to the International Space Station in June and December of 2017.

Ongoing problems with NASA’s Space Launch System may delay efforts to return to the Moon with human explorers by late 2024, according to the NASA inspector general.

After December's troubled flight test, Boeing says it will adopt a more thorough approach as it continues to pursue certification for its Starliner capsule.

A third attempt to lift off is scheduled for Feb. 15 at 3:21 p.m. EST.

Gerstenmaier, 65, left NASA last year after being reassigned by Administrator Jim Bridenstine in July to serve as a special advisor to Deputy Administrator Jim Morhard.

The new astronauts would be eligible for exploratory missions to the surface of the Moon and perhaps Mars as well as to staff the International Space Station or commercial low-Earth-orbit successors.

Two Air Force Boeing C-17 Globemaster airlifters carrying the Mars 2020 rover and various other elements touched down at Kennedy Space Center’s former Shuttle Landing Facility shortly after 3 p.m. EST Feb. 12.

NASA and Boeing will review all 1 million lines of code following errors found during the CST-100 Starliner's troubled uncrewed orbital flight demonstration mission in December.

Astronauts on the fourth spacewalk to repair the $2 billion Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer found signs of a leak.

Japan is boosting its space exploration budget.

NASA astronauts Jessica Meir and Christina Koch on Jan. 20 completed the latest spacewalk in a long-running effort to upgrade the space station's solar power generation system.

The test is the last major milestone before a crewed flight test to the International Space Station as early as March.

Collins Aerospace will provide critical subsystems for Orion spacecraft crews assigned to resume human exploration of the lunar surface starting in 2024

Ellen Ochoa will be the 34th recipient of the National Space Trophy, presented each year to a U.S. citizen for major contributions to the U.S. space program.

NASA astronauts Jessica Meir and Christina Koch resumed efforts Jan. 15 to replace aging batteries on the International Space Station.

“I would put us in the red-risk for being ready at the national level for sample analysis of the Osiris-Rex materials,” the mission's principal investigator says.

"These astronauts could one day in fact walk on the Moon as part of the Artemis program," NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine said.
