The blood moon will not be seen again on Election Day for another 372 years.

The Taurid swarm crosses Earth's orbit once every few years, causing higher numbers of meteors to burn up in Earth's atmosphere.

This strange phenomenon is caused by the refraction of sunlight through ice crystals in the air, similar to a rainbow formation from water droplet refraction.

People in the U.S. were unable to see Tuesday's spectacle but are promised a string of such events in the next few years.

The asteroid is due to pass the Earth on November 1 at around six times the distance between the Earth and the Moon.

The picture was taken from the ISS as it passed over Southeast Asia, shows one blue light over the Gulf of Thailand, and the other near the South China Sea.

Technically, the moon turns full only at a specific moment of one day, but it will appear full to most observers for about three days.

Scientists have found that the composition of lunar rocks is like that of Earth's mantle.

Surface colors and countless craters can be seen in this image of the moon, which is the result of 360 individual photos combined.

The Chang'e-5 mission also discovered a mineral entirely new to science: Changesite-(Y).

Full moons are a lunar phase that occur roughly once every month when our natural satellite is located opposite the sun in space.

In response to a U.S. Department of Defense report, China has said the U.S. "defined space as a war-fighting domain."

The Harvest Moon is special as it refers to the full moon closest to the autumn equinox.

NASA had said there will be 60 percent favorable weather conditions as the agency tried to launch the historic spacecraft again after previous engine problems.

Just because we have been to the moon before does not make the goals of NASA's Artemis program any easier.

Depending on the severity of the issues the SLS rocket is experiencing, a second launch attempt could be days or weeks away.

NASA scrubbed the Artemis I moon launch Monday due to engine troubles.

The historic mission's launch was halted following a fuel leak, but it could take place as early as next week.

The Trump administration had set a moon landing goal of 2024 citing, in part, competition with China.

The full moon in August—often referred to as the "Sturgeon Moon"—will be the fourth and final supermoon of 2022.

Researchers have built the model for an artificial gravity-powered "lunar city" that could make living on the Moon a possibility by the end of the 21st century.

Space scientists are planning to turn lunar dust into the raw material for 3D printers to construct settlements and landing pads on the Moon.
