The Plan to Rear Fish on the Moon

Ultimately, Cyrille Przybyla, an aquaculture researcher at the French Research Institute for Exploitation of the Sea who led the research, dreams of designing a lunar fish farm that uses water already on the moon to help feed residents of the future Moon Village set to be established by the European Space Agency (ESA). The Lunar Hatch project is just one of around 300 ideas currently under evaluation by the ESA, and may or may not be selected for the final mission. Przybyla’… See More.

‘Space hurricane’ spotted above Earth for the first time ever

A first-ever “space hurricane” was spotted whirling above the Earth, scientists said.

The 600-mile-wide mass of plasma occurred several hundreds of miles above the North Pole, according to a study in the journal Nature Communications.

“Until now, it was uncertain that space plasma hurricanes even existed, so to prove this with such a striking observation is incredible,” said Mike Lockwood, a space scientist at the University of Reading and co-author of the study, in a statement.

Astronauts Explore Caves on Earth, Learning the Skills They’ll Need for the Moon and Mars

A unique training program has teams of astronauts spending time inside caves doing experiments and learning to work together in a challenging environment.

One way astronauts are preparing for those challenges is by exploring the extreme environment inside caves.
