NASA’s Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore will wait until 2025 to return to Earth aboard their newly assigned spacecraft, SpaceX’s Crew-9. Here’s what they’ll be up to in the meantime.

Four astronauts were unexpectedly transferred to a medical facility after their return from space Friday morning. Three were released, while one astronaut remained hospitalized Friday afternoon.

In an interview with CNN, the four civilian crew members behind SpaceX’s history-making Polaris Dawn mission reported different symptoms and ailments during their five-day journey last month.

The world’s most powerful rocket launched on another daring test flight from the SpaceX Starbase facility in Boca Chica, Texas Sunday.

SpaceX completes its most ambitious Starship test flight yet, catching the Super Heavy rocket booster in massive metal “chopsticks.”

The FAA gave Elon Musk’s SpaceX a license to move forward with a test flight that will try to catch a rocket booster between two metal pincers known as “chopsticks.”

The plasma experiment had been gathering limited data. NASA expects the Voyager 2 spacecraft will continue operating with other experiments into the 2030s.

After their weeklong journey turned into a monthslong stay on the International Space Station, two Boeing Starliner astronauts are now within reach of the spacecraft that will eventually bring them home.

A mission destined to return the Starliner astronauts stuck in space months longer than expected is set to launch from Florida.

The Polaris Dawn crew wraps a mission to low-Earth orbit that included the world’s first commercial spacewalk by splashing down off Florida’s coast.

The SpaceX Polaris Dawn mission may wind down this weekend. Here are all the ways its crew of four citizen astronauts has made history so far.

NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore, who served on Boeing’s Starliner crewed test flight, reflects on the decision to send Starliner home empty and leave them in space.

The SpaceX Polaris Dawn mission already reached record altitudes. The entire spacecraft was exposed to the vacuum of space and two citizen astronauts completed spacewalks.

The SpaceX Polaris Dawn crew of four civilian astronauts successfully completed the first-ever commercial spacewalk.

The Polaris Dawn mission took off Tuesday morning. The civilian crew launched aboard a SpaceX capsule into Earth’s orbit to attempt an unprecedented spacewalk.

SpaceX’s Polaris Dawn mission kicked off early Tuesday, launching a four-person crew of civilian astronauts into orbit. And hours later they have already made history: reaching the highest orbit around Earth and surpassing a record set during NASA’s earliest days.

A four-person crew of civilians is once again poised to take off on a risky — and potentially historic — mission into Earth’s radiation belts.

Boeing’s Starliner capsule returned from the International Space Station early Saturday — concluding a nearly three-month stay in space. But it flew home empty.

After about 13 weeks in space, Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft finally returned home from the International Space Station. See how the mission unfolded here.
