Based on previous models of microbial survival there are regions in the solar system which have high preservation potential for terrestrial spore-forming microbes such as Bacillus subtilis.
Editor’s note: One of the first things you learn in biology is sterile technique – the taking of a sample without contaminating it. You learn it in microbiology and later […]
The team analyzed water in nine samples from the Apollo lunar mission, using a high-precision triple oxygen isotope technique. This method, developed by Dr. Morgan Nunn Martinez of the University […]
As humans advance their presence in space and seek to improve the quality of life on Earth, a variety of science questions in support of these two objectives can be […]
This document compiles results obtained from the test campaign of the European Moon Rover System (EMRS) project.
When it is solicited, the focus of C.23 Analog Activities to Support Artemis Lunar Operations is on supporting high-fidelity science operations and operations constraints through Artemis human analog mission campaigns, including, but […]
Systematic investigation of lunar night-time temperatures can possibly be thought as a stable platform to study Earth’s radiation budget and climate change as advocated earlier by several researchers.
A new analysis of maps of the near and far sides of the Moon shows that there are multiple sources of water and hydroxyl in the sunlit rocks and soils, […]
As a first step in preparing for the return of samples from the Moon by the Artemis Program, NASA initiated the Apollo Next Generation Sample Analysis Program (ANGSA).
Editor’s note: Right now NASA is planning the spacesuit and sensor technology needed for astronauts to operate during prolonged AwayTeam sorties to study astrogeology on the lunar surface. While the […]
