NASA teams up with SpaceX for a groundbreaking launch

NASA has selected SpaceX's Starbase in Texas to launch the Pandora satellite mission, which will study at least 20 exoplanets and their host stars. Pandora, equipped with a 17-inch telescope and a near-infrared detector from the James Webb Telescope, will analyze planetary atmospheres and detect water—a key indicator of habitability. The launch is expected in fall 2025.
