To freshen up your Apollo knowledge, here is a good dive into the science and engineering that put people on the moon.

There is a chemical reaction discovered a century ago that could be the key to creating everything from fuel to shelter on Mars!

Good news for fans of Venus - last week, NASA announced two new missions to learn more about our planetary neighbor! And this week, NASA's Juno mission sent back a treasure trove of data about Ganymede - the largest moon in our solar...

Earlier this spring NASA announced a new research model that predicts that ocean worlds are far from rare, and our galaxy might be full of them. And a new study examines evidence that Pluto may have had an underground ocean all along!

The Beresheet lander is on its way to the moon and Jupiter's magnetic field might be affecting Europa's ocean.

Everyone's heard of Martin Luther King Jr. But do you know the woman Dr. King called "the architect of the civil rights movement," Septima Clark? The teacher of some of the generation's most legendary activists -- like Rosa Parks, Diane...

We're going to be building on the Moon this decade -- and next will be Mars, says space architect Melodie Yashar. In a visionary talk, she introduces her work designing off-world shelters with autonomous robots and 3D printers and...

The Apollo program was famous for being risky and expensive. It had a crunched timeline, daring astronauts, and lacked modern tech, and that all kind of makes you wonder… was the Apollo program a bad idea?

For the first time, we are forced to consider the real risk of destabilizing the entire planet, says climate impact scholar Johan Rockström. In a talk backed by vivid animations of the climate crisis, he shows how nine out of the 15 big...

When game designer Jane McGonigal found herself bedridden and suicidal following a severe concussion, she had a fascinating idea for how to get better. She dove into the scientific research and created the healing game, SuperBetter. In...

Can't wait to get into outer space? Well there's a bit you need to know first... Spending time in zero gravity can have some pretty extreme effects on the human body. Still scientists are already making plans for long trips to other...

Project Mercury taught NASA a lot about getting people off the surface of Earth and into orbit, and paved the way for all of their future space missions.

Margaret Hamilton is a pioneer for women in STEM, and her team's software saved Apollo 11's moon landing!

On a cosmic scale, Mercury isn’t very far away, but it's incredibly hard to get there. Getting into orbit around it takes years of flybys in the solar system, but we're going to do it again!

SciShow Space News shares the latest developments from around the universe, including NASA’s plan to build the world’s most powerful rocket, and the fate of Russian geckos sent to have sex in space.

Hank delivers news of the future, with his rundown of the top space missions scheduled for 2014. Learn about upcoming launches to a nearby asteroid, a comet as it approaches the sun, and the first test flight of NASA's new Orion crew...

Hank shares the latest exciting findings from the Mars Science Laboratory, known to its friends as Curiosity. Learn what Curiosity has discovered about the giant Gale Crater, and what those developments mean for the prospects of ancient...

Did you know SciShow has a whole channel dedicated solely to space? Well, we hope you packed warm, cause we’re taking you on a tour through the solar system with these SciShow Space episodes!

Our star continuously throws out streams of charged particles at more than 500 kilometers per second, something we call Solar Wind. And just like regular weather can be unpredictable and dangerous, space weather can be, too. Meanwhile,...
