The AI-powered innovation transforming space medicine. Astronauts can now perform expert-level ultrasounds without Earth-based guidance—keeping them healthy on deep-space missions while paving the way for smarter, more accessible healthcare on Earth.
The future of exploration starts here!

Scientists may have found the solution to creating oxygen in space with artificial photosynthesis!
They are creating devices that mimic plant photosynthesis, to turn sunlight and water into oxygen without the need for electricity.
These devices produce oxygen from water and sunlight using semiconductor materials coated with metallic catalysts.
Scientists believe artificial photosynthesis could even work on Mars, where sunlight is weaker, by using simple solar mirrors to concentrate sunlight and boost oxygen production.
These devices could not only help us explore space but could also bring us closer to meeting our green energy and sustainability goals here on Earth. 🌍💚

We’re going back to Mars! Our newest rover is named Perseverance, and will be launching soon for its seven-month journey to the Red Planet to search for signs of ancient life. And it’s bringing along a friend: a little helicopter named Ingenuity! Ingenuity will test the first powered flight on Mars.
