A telescope similar to James Webb was launched in the orbit by NASA in 2025 to look for phenomena that the most powerful tool ...

This is essential for SPHEREx to keep its telescope shielded from the sun’s light and heat, which would inhibit its observations, and for PUNCH to have a clear view in all directions around ...

The two missions, called SphereX and Punch, were launched at the same time so NASA could use its resources more efficiently. Stormtracker 16 Meteorologist Jeremy Lewan interviewed NASA scientist ...

Space launches have already made headlines this year. Here's a look at upcoming launches you can watch from the comfort of home.

One of those missions centers on a new space telescope called SPHEREx—no relation to SpaceX ... Tagging along on the same flight was NASA’s PUNCH, short for Polarimeter to Unify the Corona ...

Perched atop that rocket were two new NASA missions — one to study the origins of the solar wind, named PUNCH, and another to help unlock the very secrets of the cosmos, called SPHEREx. The ...

Philosophically, these questions are existential. SPHEREx will try to punch above its weight. Built by BAE Systems, SPHEREx is about the size of a subcompact car, and it lacks the power and ...

NASA’s SPHEREx (Spectro-Photometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization and Ices Explorer) observatory and PUNCH (Polarimeter to Unify the Corona and Heliosphere) satellites ...

Riding with SPHEREx aboard the Falcon 9 were four small satellites that make up the agency's PUNCH (Polarimeter to Unify the Corona and Heliosphere) mission, which will study how the Sun's outer ...

NASA’s newest space telescope, SPHEREx — designed to seek out the key ingredients for life in the Milky Way — and a sun-focused mission called PUNCH are on their way to space. Both missions ...

Days after SpaceX blew up one of its big Starship spacecrafts, the company helped launch two rather important science missions namely SPHEREx and PUNCH for NASA. Our focus today is on SPHEREx but ...
