The South African National Space Agency (Sansa) is providing key support to Nasa’s Artemis Two mission by hosting a communication antenna. The mission, which launched last week, involves four astronauts on a ten-day fly-by around the Moon. Sansa’s role includes tracking the Orion capsule for trajectory and health data.

New research shows that Nasa's Dart spacecraft, which crashed into the asteroid moonlet Dimorphos in 2022, has changed the orbit of the binary asteroid system around the sun. This marks the first time a human-made object has measurably altered a celestial body's path in this way. The findings highlight potential methods for planetary defense against hazardous space objects.
