official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Through Artemis, NASA plans to conduct long-duration human and robotic missions on the lunar surface in preparation for future crewed exploration of Mars. Expanding exploration capabilities requires a robust lunar infrastructure, including practical and cost-effective ways to construct a lunar base. One method is employing in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) –Continue reading “University of Utah takes top honors in BIG Idea Lunar Forge Challenge “

official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY Finding and studying Earth-like planets orbiting nearby stars is critical to understand whether we are alone in the universe. To study such planets and assess if they can sustain life, it is necessary to directly image them. However, these planets are difficult to observe, since light from the host starContinue reading “Deformable Mirrors in Space: Key Technology toDirectly Image Earth Twins”
