The research could help scientists better understand how rivers shape Earth — and how ancient landscapes formed on Mars and Saturn’s largest moon, Titan.

Supporting NASA’s proposed Habitable Worlds Observatory, UCF researchers aim to help overcome one of the greatest challenges in modern astronomy: directly imaging Earth-like planets orbiting stars.

Findings from College of Medicine Professor Michal Masternak and his team suggest spaceflight stressors may accelerate aging in the liver. This discovery could inform future medical research to understand aging on Earth and protect space travelers.

Alain Berinstain, who joined Å®ÆÍAV in January as director of the Florida Space Institute, now leads the eight-university initiative that aims to accelerate space‑related research, innovation and workforce development.

Applications for the new degree, which is a fully online, part-time graduate business program spanning 24 months, are open now until Dec. 1.

The four recipients are bridging the gap between cutting-edge lab research and real-world impact in engineering, medicine and science to solve global challenges.

As NASA continues to advance the Artemis program, UCF researchers and space experts are collaborating to ensure future travelers to the moon, Mars stay safe and healthy.

UCF’s Big 12 Conference home matchups will feature TCU, Baylor, BYU, Arizona State and Iowa State.

As astronauts travel closer to the moon than any human has in more than 50 years, physicians and scientists will learn more about how space travel affects physical and mental health.
