SpaceX Wants to Give Mars Its Own Version of Starlink
'Marslink' would allow at least 4Mpbs of data to travel to the Red Planet and back.

NASA is hunting for a partner capable of equipping Mars with steady internet connectivity, and SpaceX is convinced it's the right company for the job. A presentation shared Thursday reveals that SpaceX is working on a Mars iteration of Starlink called "Marslink," which would use dedicated satellites to relay information to and from the Red Planet.

Mars-Premiere: NASA erzeugt atembaren Sauerstoff | #Research #Space #MOXIE

Mars-Premiere: NASA erzeugt atembaren Sauerstoff | #Research #Space #MOXIE | 21st Century Innovative Technologies and Developments as also discoveries, curiosity ( insolite)... | Scoop.it

Nach dem ersten Helikopter-Flug von Ingenuity auf dem Mars, dem in Kürze ein zweiter Flug folgen wird, feiert die NASA in dieser Woche auch noch einen weiteren Erfolg: Zum ersten Mal wurde direkt auf dem Mars atembarer Sauerstoff erzeugt, wie die NASA meldet. Der im Februar gelandete sechsrädige Roboter Perseverance trägt ein "toastergroßes" experimentelles Instrument, welches auf den Namen "Mars Oxygen In-Situ Resource Utilization Experiment" getauft wurde. Oder kurz: MOXIE.  

Die NASA weist darauf hin, dass der Begriff "Moxie" auch ein alter Begriff in der englischen Sprache für eine Persönlichkeitseigenschaft sei. Jemand mit "Moxie" gelte als mutig, abenteuerlustig, abgehärtet und temperamentvoll.
Am 20. April wurde ein Experiment durchgeführt, bei dem aus der aus 96 Prozent Kohlendioxid bestehenden Mars-Atmosphäre insgesamt fünf Gramm Sauerstoff erzeugt wurde. Dieser würde dazu ausreichen, um einen Menschen 10 Minuten lang mit atembaren Sauerstoff zu versorgen. Laut der NASA könne MOXIE um die 10 Gramm Sauerstoff pro Stunde auf dem Mars erzeugen, im Rahmen der aktuellen Mars-Mission seien in den nächsten zwei Jahren noch neun weitere Experimente geplant, bei denen MOXIE zum Einsatz kommen soll. Das erste kurze Experiment habe vor allem dazu gedient festzustellen, ob MOXIE die Reise von der Erde zum Mond gut überstanden hat. Bei den nächsten Experimenten werden dann unter anderem Betriebsmodi und die Effizienz zu verschiedenen Tageszeiten und atmosphärischen Bedingungen getestet.

Whoa! Saturn moon has all the ingredients to support life | #Space #NASA #Enceladus | 21st Century Innovative Technologies and Developments as also discoveries, curiosity ( insolite)... | Scoop.it
Life on Earth developed slowly over billions of years, and often it seems the modern process of looking for life beyond our own planet moves at a similarly glacial pace. But on Thursday, scientists announced another tantalizing lead in our species-wide quest to answer that great existential question: Is anyone or anything else alive beyond this rock of ours?

Researchers from NASA's Cassini mission say something's happening in a hidden ocean beneath the icy shell of Saturn's moon Enceladus. It's too early to say anything is swimming around down there, but it's becoming clearer that many of the ingredients that allow life to survive in deep, dark underwater environments on Earth can also be found on the Saturnian satellite.

NASA is building the next Mars rover in mixed reality | #AR #RA  | 21st Century Innovative Technologies and Developments as also discoveries, curiosity ( insolite)... | Scoop.it

I poked my head inside NASA's latest Mars rover. During a mixed-reality demonstration at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in Pasadena...

 

The ability to investigate the design of NASA's latest spacecraft, which is being engineered for the next mission to Mars in 2020, makes ProtoSpace a unique use for Microsoft's augmented-reality headset. The project enables JPL designers and engineers to not only visualize their designs as virtual 3-D objects, but also pinpoint potential problems that could affect space missions along the way.

 

Back in Pasadena, ProtoSpace is engaging engineers in a new kind of interaction with their spacecraft design. The vehicle, which is essentially a Computer Assisted Design (CAD) model in holographic form, appears as a floating, dynamic animation. You can do things like slip your arm through the brightly colored parts and bolts that are projected in front of you. But what the rover lacks in definition it makes up for in presence. Unlike the CAD design on a flat computer screen, mixed-reality technology brings a full-scale replica of the rover to life inside a room.

Why NASA wants to test a nuclear rocket engine for a Mars mission

Why NASA wants to test a nuclear rocket engine for a Mars mission | 21st Century Innovative Technologies and Developments as also discoveries, curiosity ( insolite)... | Scoop.it

You're opening up the outer solar system to scientific exploration. You don't have to wait for the planets to align. You'll have launch opportunities every year," said Dale Thomas, deputy director of the University of Alabama in Huntsville's Propulsion Research Center. "And, by the way, since we're talking about direct trajectories, you get there in about half the time.

With nuclear-thermal propulsion, getting to Mars could take as little as two months instead of nine, depending on the path taken, engineers said. And reducing the trip time would have the advantage of limiting the supplies needed for such a journey.

Nasa has unveiled plans to test nuclear-powered rockets that would fly astronauts to Mars in ultra-fast time.

The agency has partnered with the US government’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (Darpa) to demonstrate a nuclear thermal rocket engine in space as soon as 2027, it announced on Tuesday.

The project is intended to develop a pioneering propulsion system for space travel far different from the chemical systems prevalent since the modern era of rocketry dawned almost a century ago.

“Using a nuclear thermal rocket allows for faster transit time, reducing risk for astronauts,” Nasa said in a press release.

Water on the Moon could sustain a lunar base | #Space #Research | 21st Century Innovative Technologies and Developments as also discoveries, curiosity ( insolite)... | Scoop.it

Having dropped tantalising hints days ago about an "exciting new discovery about the Moon", the US space agency has revealed conclusive evidence of water on our only natural satellite.

This "unambiguous detection of molecular water" will boost Nasa's hopes of establishing a lunar base.

The aim is to sustain that base by tapping into the Moon's natural resources.

The findings have been published as two papers in the journal Nature Astronomy.

While there have previously been signs of water on the lunar surface, these new discoveries suggest it is more abundant than previously thought. "It gives us more options for potential water sources on the Moon," said Hannah Sargeant, a planetary scientist from the Open University in Milton Keynes, told BBC News.

Curiosity Rover Finds 3.5-Billion-Year-Old Organic Compounds and Strange Methane on Mars

Curiosity Rover Finds 3.5-Billion-Year-Old Organic Compounds and Strange Methane on Mars | 21st Century Innovative Technologies and Developments as also discoveries, curiosity ( insolite)... | Scoop.it

No, NASA hasn’t discovered life on Mars yet—but a new result makes it seem like maybe, at some point in the planet’s history, the conditions were ripe for some extraterrestrial beings. Maybe.

The scientists behind experiments conducted by the Curiosity rover are today reporting two results that make the Red Planet’s story even more interesting. One group found carbon-containing organic matter in 3.5-billion-year-old rock. Another noticed the methane levels around Curiosity varied by the season. Combined, these results present tantalizing hints of a potentially habitable Martian past.

From everything we can tell of the chemistry and the minerals deposited in the Gale crater where Curiosity is stationed, “we think it was a habitable environment,” Jennifer Eigenbrode from the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center told Gizmodo. “It had the ability to support life—but doesn’t mean life were there.

NASA initially worked with Goodyear in the mid-2000s to develop a prototype spring tire. These tires were composed of a flexible mesh with hundreds of coiled steel wires. It gave the tires the ability to support heavy loads with good traction, but even the strongest steel springs deform. On Mars, rolling over rocks while carrying a heavy loadout of instruments would cause the steel to change shape over time.


The answer was a new material based on a stoichiometric nickel-titanium alloy. Like regular spring tires, there’s no air inside. It’s just a lattice of coiled metal that flexes as it rolls over obstacles. That means it won’t get punctured by sharp Martian rocks. The bonds in the nickel-titanium alloy can rearrange in response to stress instead of stretching, so the tire snaps back — no deformation.

NASA plans to use shape memory tires on future Mars rovers, possibly even on the upcoming 2020 rover that will take over for Curiosity in the next few years. It’s even possible we could see this design on Earth-based tires one day.
