NASA Tracks GNSS Signals on Moon, Advancing Lunar Navigation Technology
NASA and the Italian Space Agency made history by successfully tracking GNSS signals on the Moon through the LuGRE experiment. The technology could revolutionise lunar navigation, aiding missions like Artemis. LuGRE had earlier set records for GNSS signal acquisition in deep space, reaching lunar orbit before its final touchdown. The data collected...

NASA’s Lunar Trailblazer Moon Probe Struggles with Power and Signal Loss
NASA’s Lunar Trailblazer, launched on 26 February, has lost communication and is running low on power. The spacecraft, meant to detect water ice on the moon, has been unable to perform key trajectory corrections. Ground controllers are using the Deep Space Network and observatories to assess its position, but recovery remains uncertain. The missi...

Blue Ghost Lunar Lander Set for Historic Moon Landing on March 2, 2025
Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost lunar lander will make its descent to the Moon on March 2, 2025, near Mare Crisium. This mission, supported by NASA’s CLPS initiative, will carry key scientific payloads to test new technologies for future crewed missions to the Moon and Mars. It aims to collect critical lunar surface data and demonstrate advancemen...

Blue Origin’s New Shepard NS-29 Conducts First Lunar Gravity Simulation
Blue Origin successfully launched its NS-29 mission, marking the first lunar gravity simulation on its New Shepard vehicle. The capsule rotated mid-flight to replicate Moon gravity for research payloads, including NASA-supported experiments on lunar dust behaviour and fire safety. Over half of the 30 payloads focused on Moon-related technologies. T...

Blue Origin’s New Shepard NS-29 Mission to Test Lunar Gravity Simulation
Blue Origin’s New Shepard NS-29 mission, scheduled for Jan. 28, 2025, will simulate lunar gravity during its suborbital flight. The uncrewed mission, launching from West Texas, carries 30 experiments, with 17 contributed by NASA. These experiments aim to advance lunar exploration technologies, including studying moon dust behaviour, fire dynamics...

NASA’s X-59 Jet Conducts Afterburner Test for Supersonic Flight Performance
NASA’s X-59, part of the Quiet SuperSonic Technology (Quesst) programme, has successfully completed afterburner tests, bringing it closer to achieving quieter supersonic flight. Built by Lockheed Martin, the X-59 is designed to break the sound barrier without generating the disruptive sonic booms typically associated with supersonic travel. The r...

NASA Delays Artemis 2 Mission to 2026, Artemis 3 Crewed Moon Landing For Mid-2027
NASA has announced delays in the Artemis missions, citing the need for additional technical preparations. Artemis 2, the first crewed Moon mission since the Apollo era, will now launch in 2026. Artemis 3, the programme's lunar landing mission, has been moved to mid-2027 due to Orion spacecraft readiness and other challenges. Adjustments to the spac...

Time Moves Faster on The Moon Than on Earth, Claims New Study
A 56-microsecond daily time drift between Earth and the Moon, caused by relativity, presents unique challenges for future lunar missions. Scientists are devising a standard lunar time system to ensure navigation accuracy and mission safety, particularly as NASA’s Artemis programme expands human and robotic activity on the Moon. This groundwork is...

NASA Disasters Programme Uses Artificial Intelligence to Help Aid Response Efforts
NASA is leveraging artificial intelligence and open science to enhance disaster preparedness, response, and recovery efforts. During events like Hurricane Ida, NASA provided actionable data on soil moisture, flood detection, and power outages through its Disasters Mapping Portal. AI-driven tools, like blue tarp detection for damaged roofs, are aidi...
