NASA astronauts practice 'moonwalking' in the Arizona desert! Moonwalking in the Arizona desert? No, it's not a remake of Michael Jackson's signature move; it's a training exercise for NASA astronauts that will be part of the future Artemis Program of missions to the lunar surface. The week-long expedition across the San Francisco Volcanic Field near Flagstaff, AZ, will give NASA astronauts Kate Rubins and Andre Douglas the opportunity to enact moonwalk scenarios in replica spacesuits on a landscape that's similar to the moon. - https://lnkd.in/giZcvVXZ - - - #Space #spaceze #moonwalking #NASA #spaceship #spacex #spacestation #universe #astronomy #astronaut #stars #spaceshuttle #explore

Jeff Bezos' aerospace company launched its NS-25 mission yesterday (May 19), sending six people — including the United States' first-ever Black astronaut candidate — on a brief trip to suborbital space aboard its New Shepard rocket-capsule combo. It was Blue Origin's first space tourism launch since August 2022. That previous mission went well, but the company's next flight, an uncrewed research jaunt that launched a month later, did not: New Shepard suffered a serious anomaly, causing the destruction of the first-stage booster. (The capsule landed safely under parachutes.)🚀 - - - #Space #spaceze #blueorigin #nasa #spaceship #spacex #spacestation #universe #astronomy #astronaut #stars #spaceshuttle #explore

Lithuania becomes 40th nation to sign Artemis Accords for moon exploration!📝 There are now 40 nations in the United States' moon-exploration coalition. Lithuania joined the club on last week, signing NASA's Artemis Accords during a ceremony in Vilnius. "Welcome to the Artemis Accords family, Lithuania," NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said in a statement. - https://lnkd.in/gc2VNJh7 - - - #Space #spaceze #artemisaccords #nasa #spaceship #spacex #spacestation #universe #astronomy #astronaut #stars #spaceshuttle #explore

SpaceX continues gearing up for the fourth test flight of its Starship megarocket, which could be just around the corner. Technicians recently stacked the Starship rocket that will conduct the flight, placing its "Ship" upper stage atop its "Super Heavy" first-stage booster on the orbital launch mount at SpaceX's Starbase site in South Texas. The company posted a video and photos of this operation, which was performed using the "chopstick" arms of Starbase's giant launch tower. "Full stack of Flight 4 Starship," SpaceX wrote in the post. - - - #SpaceX #Space #spaceze #nasa #spaceship #megarocket #spacestation #universe #astronomy #astronaut #stars #spaceshuttle #explore

A family of primitive asteroids is providing astronomers with a window into the past as they seek to unravel the history of these small space rocks believed to have once brought water to Earth. Life in the solar system can be dangerous, with lots of impacts having taken place over the course of history — for instance, consider the giant impact that formed our moon or the many impacts that spurred the cratered surface of Mercury. On occasion, large asteroids in the main asteroid belt, located between Mars and Jupiter, were also struck. When that happened, those asteroids would shatter into smaller pieces. Events like these can spawn several dozen smaller space rocks; naturally, many resulting bits hailing from the same original object have some things in common like moving around on similar orbits. Astronomers call such groups of asteroids "families."🪨💧 - - - #earth #Space #spaceze #nasa #spaceship #spacex #spacestation #universe #astronomy #astronaut #stars #spaceshuttle #explore

Artemis 2 astronauts simulated a day in the life on their moon mission!🧑🚀 It was valuable practice, as three of the Artemis 2 crew told Space.com at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in early May prior to a launch attempt here for Boeing's Starliner spacecraft. "One of the things that we've wanted to do as a crew is to start getting everything together that's going to be in the vehicle and start looking at how we're going to manage it," Jeremy Hansen, a mission specialist with CSA, said in staff office at KSC's press center. (His crew members say the simulation was his idea, although Hansen didn't take credit.) "The training team did a great job," Hansen added. - - - #Space #spaceze #artemis #moon #nasa #spaceship #spacex #spacestation #universe #astronomy #astronaut #stars #spaceshuttle #explore

NASA details plan to build a levitating robot train on the moon! Does a levitating robot train on the moon sound far-fetched? NASA doesn’t seem to think so, as the agency has just greenlit further funding for a study looking into the concept. The project, called "Flexible Levitation on a Track" (FLOAT), has been moved to phase two of NASA's Innovative Advanced Concepts program (NIAC) , which aims to develop "science fiction-like" projects for future space exploration. The FLOAT project could result in materials being transported across the moon's surface as soon as the 2030s, according to the agency. - - - #Space #NASA #spaceze #robot #spaceship #spacex #spacestation #universe #astronomy #astronaut #stars #spaceshuttle #explore

We're likely still a month or so away from the next launch of SpaceX's Starship megarocket. That was the timeline Elon Musk offered in a post on X over the weekend, saying Starship's next test flight is "probably 3 to 5 weeks" away. "Objective is for the ship to get past max heating, or at least further than last time," the billionaire entrepreneur added. The 400-foot-tall (122 meters) Starship is the biggest and most powerful rocket ever built. It consists of two elements, both of which are designed to be fully and rapidly reusable: a huge first-stage booster called Super Heavy and a 165-foot-tall (50 m) upper stage known as Starship, or simply "Ship."🚀 - - - #Space #spaceze #starship #elonmusk #nasa #spaceship #SpaceX #spacestation #universe #astronomy #astronaut #stars #spaceshuttle #explore

ESA’s European Space Operations Centre (ESOC) in Darmstadt, Germany, is evolving. On May 14th, ESA signed a contract with Darmstadt-based architecture office H2S Architekten for the construction of a futuristic new satellite control centre at its existing ESOC site. Preparations for the construction of the new building will begin in 2025. - - #ESA #spacecenter #Space #spaceze #nasa #spaceship #spacex #spacestation #universe #astronomy #astronaut #stars #spaceshuttle #explore
