On July 10, 2026, the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) advanced its Dragonfly mission to explore Titan, Saturn's largest moon, as specialists at Johns Hopkins University's Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) completed key structural tests of the future rotorcraft ahead of schedule, moving it to the next assembly stage. Earlier on July 10, NASA's IXPE space telescope directly measured the magnetic fields surrounding the Lighthouse Pulsar for the first time, confirming high-energy particles escape the pulsar by traveling along the Milky Way's magnetic field lines. Also on July 10, NASA began recruiting research participants for its next simulated mission, seeking volunteers to live and work for a year in a Mars-like habitat, simulating deep space missions and isolated environments expected during future missions to the Moon and Mars.
