Engineers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory have conserved energy supplies on the record-setting Voyager 1 & 2 deep space probes nearly 50 years after their missions launched to extend them further.

This was the first time ULA's Vulcan rocket was eligible to compete for a major NASA contract.

Developing nuclear propulsion for its next generation of warships would eventually give China more power to run advanced systems, such as electromagnetic launchers, radars, and new technology weapons.

For the first time, a group of U.S. researchers has concluded that China has built a land-based prototype nuclear reactor to power future aircraft carriers.

The history of other countries' weapons programs shows that Tehran could complete and deploy a missile-deliverable warhead in a matter of months.

Unfortunately, they were not able to stretch the reserve power as far as anticipated.

Curtis Smith, the KEPCO Professor of the Practice of Nuclear Science and Engineering at MIT, is sharing his expertise in risk analysis and management with future generations of engineers.

NASA has turned off one of Voyager 2's science instruments as power conservation becomes crucial for the interstellar exploring spacecraft located 12.8 billion miles from home.

A dwindling fuel supply.

Governments can control access to the highly specialized chips that are needed to train the world's most advanced AI models.

Chemists accidentally discovered the material in 1938, and since then it has been used for everything from helping to create the first atomic bomb to keeping your eggs from sticking to your frying pan

Molecular compounds with heavy elements, like americium, curium and others can now be synthesized in a streamlined and efficient way thanks to a new technique developed by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) researchers.
