Researchers from the University of Oxford have sent human cells into orbit on the International Space Station (ISS) to help unravel the mystery of faster aging in space.

Two Western University experts say a longer stay on the ISS will present some challenges for the astronauts, including how to cope with living in a confined space with a co-worker for a long period of time.​

Boeing’s inaugural astronaut mission came to a close late Friday night as the company’s empty Starliner capsule landed in the New Mexico desert. The two test pilots were left behind at the International Space Station, as NASA deemed their return too risky and booked SpaceX to bring them home. However, their return won’t happen until...

The Boeing Starliner has seen delays, cost overruns and helium leaks — and now, the astronauts stranded aboard the International Space Station (ISS) caught a strange noise coming from the spacecraft in the lead-up to its departure this week. Astronaut Butch Wilmore radioed mission control in Houston on Saturday to report a “strange noise” coming...

The Boeing Starliner capsule, which transported two NASA astronauts, is set to leave the International Space Station (ISS) next week — empty.

Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore, the two astronauts stuck in space, will have to stay on the International Space Station (ISS) until next February. NASA says the pair will return on a SpaceX craft, rather than the Boeing Starliner that took them into space, because of a faulty propulsion system that is just too risky....

NASA is expected to announce on Saturday its decision about whether two stranded astronauts – who rode the glitchy Starliner spacecraft to the International Space Station in June – can safely travel home in the Boeing capsule, or if they will need to use a SpaceX vehicle.

For many, a delayed flight could mean some unwanted expenses, or even a ruined vacation. But for a pair of veteran NASA astronauts, it’s meant a few extra weeks in space. What was supposed to be a week-long trip to the international space station for Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams has quickly stretched into over...

Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, the two NASA astronauts who were the first to fly aboard Boeing’s Starliner in early June spoke Wednesday morning from the International Space Station (ISS) as their brief trip into orbit has stretched into over a month-long stay. “I have a real good feeling in my heart that this spacecraft...

NASA and Boeing will be holding off bringing astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams back from the International Space Station (ISS), a NASA representative said on Tuesday. And as Kyle Benning reports, this is the third time Boeing’s Starliner has seen its return trip delayed.

NASA is once again delaying a return flight from the International Space Station (ISS) for two astronauts testing a Boeing spacecraft. The Starliner has been plagued by issues in the lead up to last week’s launch and has seen several helium leaks since lifting off. Kyle Benning has the latest.

Boeing is going from taking off to lifting off, as the company ventures into space travel with the launch of its Starliner spacecraft to the International Space Station (ISS). Jackson Proskow explains why this is critical to NASA; and speaks with Canadian astronaut Joshua Kutryk, who will be at mission control.

Jeremy Skibicki, who’s charged with murdering four Indigenous women in Winnipeg in 2022, has now admitted to killing them.
