NASA's Artemis II rocket punched 3,100-mile-long holes in Earth's atmosphere, disrupted GPS signals: Study
NASA's Artemis II mission created large disturbances in the ionosphere that disrupted GPS signals across the United States. These disturbances were significantly more intense than those from prior rocket launches, causing potential issues for technologies reliant on precise positioning. Researchers noted that even minor positioning errors could impact autonomous vehicles, which rely on GPS data. The mission set new records for human distance from Earth during a lunar flyby.
NASA may make a big announcement on Moon mission today. Here's what we know
NASA is preparing for a press conference to share important updates on the Artemis program. The focus will be on the upcoming Artemis III mission and its objectives.

NASA aims to return astronauts to the Moon by 2028, exploring the lunar south pole for scientific research.
Trump may cancel NASA's powerful SLS Moon rocket
For the first lunar landing mission, called Artemis III, the SLS will launch four astronauts on NASA's Orion crew capsule. Orion will then travel to the Moon. No official announcements have been made. However, such a move could be in line with previous speculation that the Trump administration could gut NASA, forcing it to contract out much of its work to the private companies.
Artemis 1 moon mission: NASA looks to go for launch on Wednesday. Details here
NASA plans to launch its moon mission, Artemis 1, on Wednesday. It had tried previously this year, but the attempts had failed. The officials overseeing the mission met earlier this week to discuss the readiness of the spacecraft and rocket after the hurricane, Nicole, damaged it a little.
