Nokia and NASA have joined forces in an extraordinary venture to bring 4G connectivity beyond our planet’s bounds and into the depths of space. This groundbreaking collaboration is a giant leap forward in our quest to explore the cosmos and promises to revolutionize how we communicate during future space missions. Nokia, a global leader in […] The post Texting on the Moon? Nokia and NASA Have Joined Forces first appeared on The Source.
The United States government has ordered NASA to establish a distinct time zone on the moon. A memo from Washington directs NASA to establish a standard time zone for the moon.
If all goes well, the network will send audio and video back to earth, and will also be instrumental in searching for evidence of ice on the lunar surface.
The two NASA astronauts assigned to Boeing's first human spaceflight arrived at their launch site Thursday, just over a week before their scheduled liftoff.
I am just old enough to remember the Apollo missions. I was only a toddler when Neil Armstrong made his historic walk, but I do recall griping to my parents that Saturday morning cartoons had been pre-empted for videos of a bunch of astronauts bouncing around the lunar surface. Hey, I was a little kid. For all I knew, people went to the moon every day. I just wanted to know what had happened to Bugs Bunny. That is a perfectly legitimate excuse if one is six. Of course, watching the Apollo...
China is planning a permanently-manned base on the Moon (Picture: Getty) Nasa has warned that China may attempt to take over parts of the Moon within just a few years. The space agency’s administrator Bill Nelson said he fears the country’s civilian programmes launched in the name of science could actually be secret military operations. Speaking before a House Appropriations Committee to argue why Nasa needed a $25.4 billion budget for 2025, Mr Nelson said: ‘China has made extraordinary...
In this image from Feb. 12, 2024, engineers lift a mast into place on NASA's VIPER (Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover) robotic moon rover. VIPER's mast and the suite of instruments affixed to it look a lot like the rover's "neck" and "head." The mast instruments are designed to help the team of rover drivers and real-time scientists send commands and receive data while the rover navigates around hazardous crater slopes, boulders, and places that risk communications blackouts.

For the first time since November, NASA's Voyager 1 spacecraft is returning usable data about the health and status of its onboard engineering systems. The next step is to enable the spacecraft to begin returning science data again. The probe and its twin, Voyager 2, are the only spacecraft to ever fly in interstellar space (the space between stars).
NASA has confirmed its Dragonfly rotorcraft mission to Saturn's organic-rich moon Titan. The decision allows the mission to progress to the completion of the final design, followed by the construction and testing of the entire spacecraft and science instruments.
After some inventive sleuthing, the mission team can — for the first time in five months — check the health and status of the most distant human-made object in existence.
Sofia Boutella’s physicality is a genuine special effect.
