From gravitational waves to weird radio signals, 2016 has been a busy year in the field of astronomy.  With the constant deluge of ongoing news and controversies, it’s easy to lose sight of what’s happening in the world of outer space.  So here are the top 10 stories in astronomical discoveries you should know about. In March, NASA scheduled the launch of InSight, a spacecraft that would sit on the surface of Mars in an effort to measure Mars quakes.  However, they discovered

Yesterday, NASA awarded contracts to Boeing and Elon Musk’s SpaceX to bring astronauts back into space.  This signals the agency’s return to manned space flight after the end of the space shuttle program. Lueders said that both companies will be paid by reaching milestones.  Their most important one is to successfully make manned flights to the International Space Station, where they will have to demonstrate their ability to deliver cargo, dock and then return safely to Earth
