Two of the world's largest biomedical research sponsors—the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Wellcome Trust—will likely get new directors this year.
Scientists have sequenced and studied thousands of human and microbial genomes, but the complete deciphering of the DNA of other multicellular organisms has lagged.
Research Informing Deep Space Missions as Dragon Nears Departure – Space Station
Space science and spacesuits dominated the Expedition 68 crew's work day aboard the International Space Station on Thursday. The orbital lab will also see the departure of a U.S. cargo ship early next week.
Sustaining crews farther away from Earth is a key objective as NASA and its international partners plan human missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.
Best of 2022: James Webb space telescope – thousands of galaxies in a grain of sand – podcast | ...
When Nasa unveiled the first images from the long-awaited James Webb space telescope, they revealed our universe in glorious technicolour. The $10bn space science observatory will help scientists answer fundamental questions in astronomy and look back to the dawn of time.
In this episode first broadcast in July 2022, Prof Ray Jayawardhana, who is working with one of the instruments onboard the JWST, speaks to Ian Sample about what these images show us, and what they mean for the very human quest of discovering our place in the cosmos
New mass spectrometer for NASA's Europa Clipper mission
"MASPEX has a mass resolution hundreds of times finer than anything that has flown to space before," said SwRI Senior Vice President Jim Burch, who serves as MASPEX principal investigator.
"SwRI has used internal funding and NASA resources to develop an instrument able to differentiate between molecules with almost identical masses based on the energy binding the atoms. It also differentiates isotopes—atoms with equal numbers of protons but a different number of neutrons.

Historically, there has been a close kinship between Earth science and planetary science stemming from the recognition that habitability is a special characteristic of Earth and should be cherished.
Moon scientists hail Artemis opportunities while still learning from Apollo | Space
It's been half a century since humans last retrieved samples of the moon's surface, and we're finally going back — with better technology, too.
With the successful Artemis 1 test flight in December and 50 years after the final Apollo lunar mission in 1972, astronomers and space enthusiasts alike are buzzing with excitement about humanity's return to the moon .
NASA chief says US 'better watch out' for China's moon goals | Space
NASA Administrator Bill Nelson claims that the U.S. is in a space race with China which could see Beijing attempt to make territorial claims to parts of the moon.
Both China and the United States have lofty goals for lunar exploration and colonization. Both the U.S.

Track NASA's space radiation experiment BioSentinel as it flies around the sun | Space
You can follow NASA's BioSentinel satellite as it flies around the sun with a microorganism-radiation experiment onboard.
Through its " Eyes on the Solar System " visualization tool, NASA invites the public "to virtually ride along with BioSentinel’s deep space journey.
Space technology progress benefits humanity - China.org.cn
China has achieved remarkable results in space exploration, especially in 2022, including the successful launch of the Shenzhou-15 manned spacecraft in November, which wrapped up the last stage of the construction of China's space station, Tiangong, or "Heavenly Palace."
Radio Transmissions Seek to Measure Asteroid
An experiment conducted in Alaska used long-wavelength radio transmissions to hopefully map the mass distribution of a potentially hazardous asteroid.
From the high peaks of the Andes to the deep cold of the Arctic and Antarctic, space science happens in some amazing locales. The dry air, often clear skies, lack of surrounding buildings, and little light pollution help with any number of observations.
