Tiny rockets are going to be sent into space to study the far universe in the most ambitious space exploration project in history. Scientists including Stephen Hawking and backers such as internet investor Yuri Milner and Mark Zuckerberg will send "nano craft" deep into space to explore the most remote regions that humans have ever seen, by far. The hugely ambitious project could reveal deep secrets of the universe and will allow people to photograph one of the most likely places to hold life on other worlds. The Starshot Project hopes to get the tiny robots out to the Alpha Centauri star system, 25 trillion years away. Getting there through normal means would take 30,000 years – but the new project hopes that using the tiny rockets will allow them to get there in just 20.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- The first stage of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched Friday has returned to the Space Coast. SpaceX confirmed the booster's early morning Tuesday arrival at Port Canaveral on its official Twitter and Instagram accounts around 2:30 a.m. In a photo, the charred first stage of the rocket stands tall on the "Of Course I Still Love You" autonomous ship near the port's 273-foot-tall cranes. A crane will lift the 14-story rocket stage off the boat onto a stand, before it is transported to a hangar at Kennedy Space Center or Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. The operation's exact timeframe is unclear, but the stage probably will be at the port for at least Tuesday before it is moved. If the rocket stage is deemed in good enough condition after inspections and multiple test firings of its nine Merlin 1D engines, CEO Elon Musk said SpaceX could try to launch it again as soon as June.

SpaceX made history on Friday after successfully landing its Falcon 9 rocket on a barge in the Atlantic Ocean. Images of the tall, narrow rocket gliding down onto a droneship sparked applause and screams of joy at SpaceX mission control in Hawthorne, California. It was its fifth attempt at landing the rocket upright - a feat that the company says could pave the way for cheaper space travel. Now, new footage from an onboard camera released by founder Elon Musk shows the near-perfect landing in stunning detail. After four failed bids SpaceX finally stuck the landing Friday in the Atlantic Ocean.

SpaceX has delivered an inflatable bedroom for astronauts to the International Space Station. The soft compartment is the first of its kind to go into space. But it could be far from the last: its makers hope that it will allow for inflatable habits on Mars, revolutionising the way that astronauts live on space. The company that made the small room, Bigelow Aerospace, hopes that within four years it can launch inflatable space stations made with the same technology that can then be leased out to commercial companies. The Bigelow Expandable Activity Module -- BEAM for short -- is able to be packed into much smaller spaces than traditional habitats.

The epic rocket landing SpaceX pulled off today (April 8) is a big step forward in humanity's march out into the cosmos, company founder and CEO Elon Musk said. SpaceX managed to land the first stage of its Falcon 9 rocket on a robotic "drone ship" in the Atlantic Ocean during the successful launch of the company's uncrewed Dragon cargo capsule toward the International Space Station from Florida's Cape Canaveral Air Force Station this afternoon. The first-of-its-kind touchdown is an important milestone in SpaceX's quest to develop completely reusable rockets, which Musk has said could revolutionize spaceflight by reducing launch costs by a factor of 100. "I think it's another step toward the stars," Musk said during a post-launch press briefing today. "In order for us to really open up access to space, we've got to achieve full and rapid reusability. And to be able to do that for the primary rocket booster is going to [have] a huge impact on cost."

SpaceX has arrived at the International Space Station (ISS), delevering the world's first inflatable tent for astronauts. The US aerospace company's unmanned Dragon cargo ship, carrying lettuce seeds, lab mice and an inflatable pop-up room, arrived on Sunday at the space station where six spacecraft are now docked. British astronaut Tim Peake reached out with the station's robotic arm and grappled the Dragon, carrying its nearly 3,175kg of gear, at 7:23am (11:23 GMT). "It looks like we've caught a Dragon," said Peake. Four Russian spaceships - two Progress cargo carriers and two Soyuz capsules which ferry astronauts - are docked at the space station, along with Orbital ATK's Cygnus cargo ship and SpaceX's Dragon. Not since 2011, during the final flight of the space shuttle Discovery, have there been six vehicles parked at the ISS at the same time, NASA said.

They tuned in by the tens of thousands, crowding around their screens the way residents of the Florida Space Coast once jammed the beaches to witness rocket launches at the dawn of the Space Age. But the audience watching SpaceX's live web broadcast of its launch from Cape Canaveral on Friday was treated to a show that until just a few years ago was widely discounted as impossible -- the vertical landing of the Falcon 9 rocket, which used its engine thrust to slow down and touch softly on a boat in the Atlantic Ocean. On Sunday morning, SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft caught up to the International Space Station. Flying at 17,500 mph, the spacecraft pulled up alongside the orbiting laboratory, and at 7:23 a.m., European astronaut Tim Peake grabbed it using a robotic arm. While the main mission was to deliver food and cargo to the station, it was the landing at sea that was hailed as a breakthrough. President Obama, whose administration followed through with controversial plans to retire the space shuttle and contract out missions to the space station, tweeted his congratulations.

SpaceX has finally managed to safely land its re-usable rocket onto a barge, after previous repeated attempts saw the Falcon 9 kit explode. Successfully landing the booster onto the large "drone ship" is a huge step forward for SpaceX and its found Elon Musk, and for private space travel more generally. The company hopes that the re-usable rockets will make space travel much cheaper in future, since they can be re-filled and then sent back into space rather than re-building from scratch. Mr Musk celebrated the successful landing by referencing the T-Pain song "I'm On A Boat". He later deleted the tweet.

A Falcon 9 rocket took off from Cape Canaveral, carrying more supplies to the International Space Station. SpaceX was able to land its rocket on a barge April 8, 2016, about 200 miles off the shore of Cape Canaveral, Fla. (Photo: SpaceX) CAPE CANAVERAL -- SpaceX successfully returned its Dragon spacecraft to flight Friday and landed the first stage of its Falcon 9 rocket almost on target on a barge about 200 miles offshore. Flying for the first time since a launch failure June, the Dragon and its nearly 7,000 pounds of cargo are headed for a Sunday morning rendezvous with the International Space Station. The booster landing -- not exactly in the center of the platform but enough to keep the equipment from getting wet in the Atlantic Ocean -- bolsters SpaceX's confidence that it can regularly recover rockets that could be flown again, lowering launch costs. The experiment was SpaceX's first successful ocean landing.
