The Hubble Space Telescope has been sending home images of the universe for more than thirty years, but none of its work would have been possible without the many servicing missions that kept it up to date.

Our lives depend on a world we can't see: the satellite infrastructure we use every day for information, entertainment, communication and so much more. But earth orbit isn't a limitless resource, and the problem of space debris will get...

In 1984, ice was accumulating on the side of the Space Shuttle Discovery, spelling possible disaster, luckily it was the first mission of Dr. Judith Resnik, and the Canadarm.

Why don't we have robots taking care of our every need by now? A little history of the field of robotics might help you understand how hard it is to get machines to perform tasks, and how far we've come in just a few decades.
