The last full moon of 2022 will be quite the spectacle not just for its brightness but it has company in the December sky. In a certain part of New York state, you can also see the moon block out one of the planets. It all starts tonight (Wednesday, Dec 7th).

Japan's Aerospace Exploration Agency and Toyota are working to explore the lunar surface, with ambitions to help people live on the moon and eventually on Mars.

If you were wondering, it looks like Mars is actually warmer than Central New York this week.

NASA just announced that water is on the surface of Mars. One would think we would just send either the Curiosity rover or Opportunity rover (both are currently on the surface of Mars) to investigate the area. However, NASA actually cannot. Why?

They haven't found any alien beings or spacecraft but NASA officials say the conditions on planet Mars could have supported life.

An entrepreneur with more money than God has decided that he wants to be one of the first men to complete a mission to mars. And while this space crusader with deep pockets may have the cash flow to pull of such an ambitious undertaking, some believe that he may have spread himself too thin by announcing plans to get his journey underway by 2018.

If you are even remotely interested in science and NASA, the recent Mars Rover landing sent shivers down your spine.

The internet has been having a lot of fun with the Mars Curiosity Rover landing. There were a whole bunch of memes. And, of course, there’s mohawk guy Bobak Ferdowsi, who’s successfully bridged the gap between geek and punk. But the real fun is going to begin when we start to getting hold of more of the photos and videos Curiosity is going to beam back to earth.

The Red Planet has a fairly strong reputation when it comes to solar system dynamics. For us, Mars is the fourth planet from the sun, just a little too cold to sustain life, and according to one famous self-help book, the planet men come from.
