Do you know anyone who has dual nature? Such two-faced zodiac signs are friendly but they gossip about others behind their backs. They can lie to you without batting an eyelid. However, detecting a two-faced person isn’t easy for everyone. They often compliment their friends when they achieve a goal or change their wardrobe. But they will make negative remarks about you to someone else. What other traits do two-faced people have?

It may seem counterintuitive, but bringing down the venerable International Space Station is a bold step toward the future of space exploration. NASA has selected SpaceX to develop the U.S. Deorbit Vehicle for the International Space Station (ISS), making way for future missions. This vehicle will ensure a safe and controlled deorbit of the ISS at the end of its operational life in 2030, protecting populated areas from potential debris.

NASA astronauts' return on Boeing's spaceship has been delayed repeatedly

Did NASA secretly drop a manned space capsule out of a plane in order to stage a hoax return of astronauts from outer space? No, that's not true: The footage that shows a space capsule sliding out of the back of a C-130 cargo plane was not part of a staged hoax. This was one of several drop tests conducted during the early stages of NASA's Project Mercury in October 1958. The splashdown pictured could not have been used to stage a hoax return from space because the capsule was not manned. The test happened years before the first manned flight in 1961.
