Astronomers used NASAs Hubble Space Telescope to conduct the first atmospheric study of Earth-sized exoplanets and found evidence to suggest that two could be habitable. The planets have astronomers excited because atmospheric analysis revealed that theyre likely to be rocky worlds, the type of planet necessary to host life as we know it. Freebie Link

From the last gasp of a failed satellite comes a brief glimpse of galaxies far, far away. Before it broke in March, one month after launch, Japans Hitomi X-ray satellite managed to gaze at the Perseus galaxy cluster one of the Universe's most massive objects, 250 million light-years from Earth. And researchers discovered that superheated gas at the cluster's heart flows much more placidly than expected. Freebie Link

NASAs Juno spacecraft has successfully entered Jupiters orbit, bringing it closer to the planet than any probe has come so far. The vehicle reached the gas giants north pole this evening, and NASA received confirmation that the vehicle had turned on its main engine at 11:18PM ET. The engine burned for 35 minutes, helping to slow the spacecraft down enough so that it was captured by Jupiters gravitational pull. NASA confirmed that the burn was successful at around 11:53PM ET and that Juno was in its intended 53-day orbit. Freebie Link

Chemicals found in Martian rocks suggest the Red Planet once had more oxygen in its atmosphere than it does now. Researchers found high levels of manganese oxides by using a laser-firing instrument on Nasa's Curiosity Mars rover. This higher oxygen level can be linked to a time when groundwater was present in the planet's Gale Crater where the rover is based, and it adds to other Curiosity findings such as evidence of ancient lakes revealing how Earth-like neighbouring planet once was.

Pluto probably has a liquid ocean sandwiched between a rocky core and an icy shell. When NASAs New Horizons spacecraft flew by the tiny world in July 2015, it captured the sharpest-ever images of the planets surface.

Understanding how fire spreads in a microgravity environment is critical to the safety of astronauts who live and work in space. And while NASA has conducted studies aboard the space shuttle and International Space Station, risks to the crew have forced these experiments to be limited in size and scope. Fire safety will be a critical element as NASA progresses on the journey to Mars and begins to investigate deep space habitats for long duration missions. The Spacecraft Fire Experiment (Saffire) is a three-part experiment that will be conducted over the course of three flights of Orbital ATKs Cygnus vehicle to investigate large-scale flame spread and material flammability limits in long duration microgravity.

A Russian rocket company has announced that it's working on a space taxi that'll shuttle crews from the ISS down to the moon. The plans were announced at an international conference on space exploration just outside Moscow and reported by Russia Today. The craft, provisionally named Ryvok, would be permanently docked on the ISS -- or its replacement -- transporting cargo and crews to the lunar surface. Each flight would be powered by fuel in an "accelerator block," brought up from Earth on the back of a Russian rocket. The report explains that it's likely to be the Angara A5, a heavy-lift vehicle that's intended to replace the trusty old Soyuz. Freebie Link
