Engineers from McGill University, in Montreal, Canada, say they have developed a laser-thermal propulsion system, where lasers are used to heat hydrogen fuel, to get to Mars in just six weeks.

Astronomers have found a new Earth-like planet in our neighboring solar system, Proxima Centauri. We take a look at this and other discoveries from Earth- and space-based telescopes.

The space-based observatory launched on December 9, 2021 from Cape Canaveral, Florida on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket to low Earth orbit.
