The public is invited to virtually attend NASA’s International Observe the Moon Night event on Saturday, September 26.

The contest, open to U.S. students in grades K-12, challenges participants to imagine leading a one-week expedition to the Moon’s South Pole.

While our Moon is airless, research indicates the presence of a form of rust that normally requires oxygen and water.

Chris Culbert and Camille Alleyne explain how NASA will use commercially built and operated landers from American companies to send payloads to the surface of the Moon.

Dozens of times over the last decade, NASA scientists and collaborators have launched laser beams at a reflector the size of a paperback novel orbiting the Moon. Today they announced that they have received a return signal for the first time.

Taking advantage of a total lunar eclipse, astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have detected ozone in Earth's atmosphere.

A microwave oven–sized CubeSat will serve as the first spacecraft to test a unique, elliptical lunar orbit, paving the way for humanity's future on and around the Moon.

Beginning on the near side of the Moon, with the Apollo sites marked, the view quickly moves to the South Pole and zooms in to show the changing illumination conditions there for an entire year.

Preparing to explore the surface of the Moon goes well beyond designing and building safe spacecraft and spacesuits. NASA also has to ensure the surface vehicles and suits have the mobility required to do science, and that astronauts have the tools they need to identify and scoop up rock and soil samples.

What started out as a hunt for ice lurking in polar lunar craters turned into an unexpected finding that could help scientists better understand the Moon’s formation.

Which way the wind blows in space has new importance for astronaut safety at the Moon.

NASA's Lunar Flashlight aims to detect ice at the bottom of craters on the Moon that have never seen sunlight.

NASA has awarded industry partner Astrobotic of Pittsburgh a contract to deliver NASA’s Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover (VIPER) to the Moon’s South Pole.

What is a supermoon? And other frequently asked supermoon questions.

The next full Moon will be on Tuesday night, April 7. It's also a "supermoon," the largest of the full Moons this year.

With the Artemis program, NASA will land the first woman and next man on the Moon

NASA scientists opened an untouched rock and soil sample from the Moon returned to Earth on Apollo 17 for scientific study.

The discovery of ice deposits in craters scattered across the Moon’s south pole has helped to renew interest in exploring the lunar surface, but no one is sure exactly when or how that ice got there. A new study suggests that while a majority of those deposits are likely billions of years old, some may be more recent.

50 years ago, Apollo 12 launched to the Moon!
