Hera space probe photographs Mars during flyby

The ESA mission is on its way to the Didymos asteroid system:

On 12 March 2025, the European Space Agency (ESA) Hera space probe conducted a flyby of Mars. This event marks a significant milestone on Hera's journey to the Didymos asteroid system, where researchers aim to gain…

Mars’ northern ice cap is young

Geophysical investigations reveal surprising results:

To understand the properties of the rocky mantle beneath Earth's continents, researchers use a little geophysical trick: they measure how fast large areas of land, once covered by kilometres of ice during the last ice…

Berlin instrument flies to the Moon with IM-2 mission

New lunar mission to demonstrate search for water ice at Moon's south pole:

In the early hours of 27 February 2025, at 00:30 Central European Time, the IM-2 mission launches, carrying the Athena lander from the US New Space company Intuitive Machines on its second mission to the Moon. On…

How heat and cold affect Mercury

Recent research findings from the smallest planet in the Solar System:

Mercury is the smallest of the eight planets in the Solar System, the closest to the Sun, and unusually, it has no atmosphere. Together, these factors make it a unique case in planetary research. The German Aerospace…

BepiColombo's first images of Mercury in thermal infrared
11.12.2024

Planet Mercury seen ‘in a different light’ for first time

Fifth flyby of Mercury by BepiColombo space probe:

Mercury is the innermost and smallest of the eight planets. Outwardly, it bears a strong resemblance to Earth's Moon, but the planet differs considerably from it in terms of its structure and composition. Planetary…

Explanation found for encrusting of the Martian soil

Temperature measurements of the HP³ Mars mole have provided new insights:

Mole, the Martian mole: for four years it had a small but highly regarded 'career' in planetary research. The experiment, unprecedented in the field, was named after the recognisable tunnel-digging mammal, but its…

The space probe JUICE's trajectory
15.08.2024

JUICE space probe to fly by the Moon and Earth

With the close flybys the space probe's trajectory will be changed, setting it on the ideal course to Venus:

The highly anticipated space manoeuvre has been named LEGA, for 'Lunar-Earth Gravity Assist' – which roughly means Moon-Earth gravity deflection. For the first time, the orbit of a space probe will be altered by the…

DLR laser clock achieves world-class accuracy

Laser clocks are set to improve satellite navigation and deliver a precise global time signal:

A new laser clock from the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) has achieved a record level of accuracy for optical clocks with gas cells: in 30 million years, it would be off by…

How Earth got its water

Distant asteroids thought to have brought large amounts of water to Earth:

Although water is essential for the existence of life on Earth, its presence on our planet was by no means a foregone conclusion. Millions of asteroid fragments from regions of the Solar System far from the Sun are…

“Lucy” discovers a double moon around asteroid Dinkinesh

DLR scientists made a surprising observation when analysing the image data from the NASA space probe:

First a small surprise and then a big one: when NASA's Lucy space probe transmitted the first images to Earth after its flyby of the small asteroid Dinkinesh on 1 November 2023, it revealed a moon behind the 720-metre…
