Japan launches spacecraft to Mars's moons for an impossible mission!!

What makes this so revolutionary and impossible? Read about it HERE: douglassciencecenter.org/blog, or get a snippet below:

Japan just launched a spacecraft towards Mars last Tuesday to bring back samples of its moons! This is important because NO ONE has brought back samples from Mars or its moons yet, even though we've landed on Mars many, many times.

FIVE of the world's space agencies were able to work together for this five-year mission that does two things. 1) It puts a rover on Phobos, one of Mars's moons, and two) it extracts samples and brings them back to Earth. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency launched this plan into space on Tanegashima Island, with a declared success an hour later as the spacecraft separated from the rocket's upper stage. This was a momentous occasion as the flight controllers burst into applause and embraced

Every year TIME announces the best inventions of 2026... and this year, NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope was featured!

What makes this telescope so powerful? Read it HERE: douglassciencecenter.org/blog, or get a snippet below:

In case you don’t believe that the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is an incredible and astounding invention, argue with the TIMES magazine: they just ranked this telescope as one of the best inventions of 2026!! View the article here
In case you’re not familiar with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope or what makes it so special, let me give you a quick recap of this incredible feat.
This absolute monster of a telescope has been in the headlines of many news articles recently. Why? What makes this telescope so impressive and revolutionary? Well, although both the Roman and Hubble space telescopes will have similar resolutions, the Roman space telescope will have a field of view at least a hundred times larger than Hubble's. To us, this definitely sounds impressive, but not life-changing, so let me explain why it will truly change astronomy for us forever.
