AI continues to prove successful as an important tool for fire weather forecasters, both with thunderstorm prediction and increasing situational awareness for active fires caused by lightning.

Walking robots might populate Mars one day, but first they need some practice on Earth. Dog-like robot Bert explored an alien-like terrain with an ISS astronaut at the controls.

The aircraft can cruise at 120 mph at an altitude of up to 1,500 feet — and it's much quieter than a helicopter.

As the Mars Ingenuity helicopter continues to soar, an early-stage Red Planet craft is in the works. The first fixed-wing plane on Mars would seek water — and perhaps life.

Venus Aerospace partners with NASA to advance hypersonic engine reliability and efficiency through a revolutionary new rotating detonation rocket engine.

Through its NIAC program, NASA has awarded funding to 13 innovative space technology concepts that could shape future missions to Venus, Mars and worlds beyond our solar system.

DARPA and Aurora Flight Sciences have begun building the first full-scale X-65 aircraft to demonstrate a new method of flight control that uses no external moving parts.

To combat increasing global temperatures, scientists have developed a new cooling glass paint which effectively uses space as a heat sink.

Batteries could charge up by relying on a quantum effect known as indefinite causal order, whereby the laws of cause and effect are scrambled and power can move through the system quicker.
