The #award leverages #NASA ’s expertise in developing and operating these #nextgeneration "#Moon #buggies" to build #commercial #capabilities that #support #scientific #discovery and long-term #human #exploration #OnTheMoon. NASA intends to begin using the #LTV for crewed operations during the #ArtemisV #mission on the surface of the Moon."

Coordinated Lunar #Time (LTC) might be coming soon. The White House is urging #NASA to develop a new time zone for the #Moon called Coordinated Lunar Time (LTC). Due to the Moon's different gravitational field, time moves faster there compared to Earth - by 58.7 microseconds each day (which can significantly impact spacecraft synchronization efforts). The goal is to ensure coordination among national and private endeavors. NASA and the #ESA are both working on lunar time systems. At a certain point, international agreement and a centralized coordinating body might be necessary. The US aims to implement LTC by 2026 for its crewed mission #Artemis-3, which requires extreme navigation precision. However, without coordinated timekeeping, communication and data transmission between spacecraft, satellites, and Earth could face challenges. #space https://lnkd.in/dTjHijEm

The delays in NASA's Artemis moon program are making some members of Congress nervous. Last week, NASA announced that it's now targeting September 2025 for its Artemis 2 mission, which will send four astronauts around the moon, and September 2026 for Artemis 3, which will put boots on Earth's nearest neighbor for the first time in more than half a century. These new Artemis launch dates represent delays of about a year for each flight. The rightward push was spurred by the need to conduct more studies of key Artemis hardware, such as the heat shield of NASA's Orion crew capsule, which didn't perform quite as expected during the uncrewed Artemis 1 mission in late 2022. - - - #NASA #moonprogram #artemis #Space #spaceze #spaceship #spacex #spacestation #universe #astronomy #astronaut #stars #spaceshuttle #explore

How NASA Uses Simple Technology to Track Lunar Missions: NASA is using a simple but effective technology called Laser Retroreflective Arrays (LRAs) to determine the locations of lunar landers more accurately. They will be attached to most of the landers from United States companies as part of NASA’s Commercial Lunar Payload Service (CLPS) initiative. LRAs are inexpensive, small, and lightweight, allowing future lunar orbiters […]

The White House wants US space agency Nasa to develop a new time zone for the Moon - Coordinated Lunar Time (LTC). Because of the different gravitational field strength on the Moon, time moves quicker there relative to Earth - 58.7 microseconds every day. This might not seem like much, but it can have a significant impact when trying to synchronise spacecraft. The US government hopes the new time will help keep national and private efforts to reach the moon co-ordinated. #NASA #Moon #space #time #LTC https://lnkd.in/grGYdqmu

Intuitive Machine built, launched and softly landed on the surface of the moon with many firsts. Just incredibly remarkable!!! We are creating a new space ecco system with tremendous future potential and economic viability!!!!! We performed so many firsts: First cryogenic fueling of a payload on the pad. First flight of a linerless compsite fuel tank. First firing of a metholox engine beyond GEO. First firing of a methalox engine in lunar orbit. First multiple restart of a metholox engine in space. First use of a Thermal Venting System for cryogenic cooling. First use of a Radio Frequency Measurement Gauge for propellant measurement. First in-line processing of a delta-position optical flow measurement in a live Guidance Navigation and Control system at the moon. First commercial mission to the lunar surface. First use of a commercial lunar capable data and tracking network. First mission ever to land south of 80 degrees south on the moon. Truly remarkable with limited budget and short period of time. This is a game changer!!!!! A new chapter in a gateway to future!!!! A resounding success by any measure!!!!

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم From plasma to polar aurone visible in the sky of Europe on the night of 10 May 2024 that total stop communication 🤔 https://lnkd.in/eq6ZWxpf "سنريهم آياتنا في الآفاق وفي أنفسهم حتى يتبين لهم أنه الحق " سورة فصلت صدق رب الملكوت From plasma to particles that ionize the atoms of the upper atmosphere ( ionosphere). The excited atom cannot remain in this quantum state ( n) then state(n+1 ), and an electron then changes layer, releasing a little energy in the process, by emitting a photon (elementary particle constituting visible light) which can be represented by an infinitesimal wave vector Vupr(ن ) (unit vector of released Photon) as described by Dr.Feynman (رحمه الله) in chapter 39_3 of compressibilitie of radiation. https://lnkd.in/gDZxeNtJ?

🚀 Exciting collaboration ahead! Here is what we know: 👉India and the US plan to launch the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) satellite in Q1 2024. 👉This joint microwave remote sensing venture aims to observe Earth, providing crucial data on ecosystems, ice mass, vegetation, and natural hazards like earthquakes and tsunamis. 👉ISRO and NASA are deepening ties with a Joint Working Group on human spaceflight. Discussions involve radiation impact studies, micro meteorite research, and collaboration with US industry giants like Boeing, Blue Origin, and Voyager. 👉NASA Administrator Bill Nelson urges swift progress on India’s first astronaut aboard a NASA rocket to the International Space Station (ISS). Plans include a joint India-US space flight in 2024 and exploring Private Astronaut Mission opportunities in 2023. 👉ISRO explores using NASA's Hypervelocity Impact Test facility for Gaganyaan module testing. Kudos to ISRO for launching 231 satellites from the US. What are your thoughts on the collaboration between India and the US in launching the joint microwave remote sensing satellite, NISAR (NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar)?
