Hank gives us the skinny on three plans NASA scientists have come up with to save Earth from an asteroid impact. Hopefully we'll never have to use any of them.

Astrophysicists have discovered an exoplanet that lost its atmosphere, but then, somehow, grew it back! Also, astronomers used satellite data to find a magnetic hurricane above the north pole that we almost missed!

NASA’s Magellan mission gave us unprecedented insight into Venus’s rocky surface, and even now, more than 25 years after the mission ended, it’s still one of our main tools for learning about our mysterious, next-door neighbor.

Did you know Einstein never thought we’d find actual black holes in space? It took decades of research to show black holes are physically possible, and some of the scientists behind that research were honored this year with the Nobel...

We’ve done a surprising amount of exploration on Mars, from its atmosphere, to its surface, and miles deep into its canyons. But mapping its insides has been a quandary that we hadn’t been able to solve until last week!

Considering how massive our universe is, we know the distances to cosmic objects surprisingly well. What tools and clues do scientists use to measure distances that are so enormous they sound like made-up numbers?

Jacqueline Novogratz applauds the world's heightened interest in Africa and poverty, but argues persuasively for a new approach.

Could there be intelligent life on other planets? This question has piqued imagination and curiosity for decades. Explore the answer with the Drake Equation -- a mathematical formula that calculates the possibility of undiscovered life.

The satellite launched in February, but in March, it malfunctioned, spun out of control, and broke into pieces. The mission was declared a failure. But! Before it failed, Hitomi managed a couple days' worth of observations.

SciShow Space explores new theories about the timing of the development of life on Earth, and elsewhere in the universe.

Join Caitlin Hoffmeister in this episode of SciShow Space News as we explore the universe!

How to teleport Schrödinger’s cat: this video presents the full quantum teleportation procedure, in which an arbitrary qubit (spin, etc) is teleported from Alice to Bob by way of a pair of particles entangled...

Solar tornadoes are not tornadoes, and scientists are studying a black hole with a telescope bigger than the earth!

Space technology gets applied in all sorts of ways down here on Earth, making us more comfortable, healthier, and even saving lives!

A trip into space produces physiological effects in human beings, but it can also change a person in a profound, psychological way.

We’ve discovered what appears to be the first known moon outside of the solar system and new models of Europa’s surface predict the presence of ice blades!

During the 2017 Project For Awesome livestream, I promised I'd make a tuatara video if we hit our fundraising goal, and I'm a man of my word! Little did I know I'd get to meet a tuatara and learn things about a 200 million year old...

We’ve been sitting on samples of the lunar surface for decades and, with better technology than when they were taken, we are opening them back up to take another look!

Developing new methods for survival in space is a constant and ever-evolving process, and a well known Earthly organism has the potential for multiple applications within space’s unforgiving environment!

Lots of global problems seem intractable, but there’s a formula for success that we can follow.

Honeybees are dying from parasites, pesticides, and poor nutrition, but we can help them in a number of ways, including by encouraging them to make a homemade antibiotic.

Hank explores the science behind the first kiss -- and all the kisses that come after it -- and also sets you straight about the vernal equinox, what it is, and why this year's is special!

A new report on climate change is pretty grim, but there is still a little hope.

Is there life on Venus? If there is, it would have to be unlike anything we’ve ever seen! New evidence means the possibility of life there is in question, but it could also mean a few other things.
