In a groundbreaking experiment, researchers have successfully grown plants in lunar soil for the first time, paving the way for future lunar and space exploration missions.

New research suggests our closest planet to the sun, Mercury, might hold a surprising secret: a vast diamond reserve beneath its harsh surface. Billions of years of relentless bombardment by meteorites and comets could have transformed a significant portion of Mercury's graphite crust into these precious gemstones.

China plans a groundbreaking mission to Neptune, powered by nuclear propulsion. This ambitious project could revolutionise our understanding of the ice giant. Nuclear propulsion offers increased speed, extended mission duration, and greater payload capacity. This mission could unlock the secrets of our solar system.
