Radiowave Observations on the Lunar Surface of the photo-Electron Sheath instrument (ROLSES- 1) onboard the Intuitive Machines’ Odysseus lunar lander represents NASA’s first radio telescope on the Moon, and the […]
Whether it’s rivers cutting through earth, lava melting through rock, or water slicing through ice, channels all twist and bend in a seemingly similar back-and-forth manner. But a new study […]
Electron irradiation of water-rich ices plays a significant role in initiating the chemical and physical processes on the surface of airless icy bodies in radiation environments such as Europa and […]
What does an ancient lava tube in the Canary Islands have in common with space exploration? For our robotics teams, it turns out, quite a lot.
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 inclination to explore across vast expanses has been a continual part of human history. In voyages across the Atlantic, or North America, one of the greatest obstacles was the […]
Extremophile organisms have been largely studied in Astrobiology. Among them, two antarctic plants emerge as good candidates to become colonizers of other celestial bodies, such as Mars and the Moon.
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.
