NASA still has more to learn about how the regolith and surface will be affected when a spacecraft much larger than the Apollo lunar excursion module lands, whether it’s on the Moon for Artemis or ...
The design unfolds from a tubular module, expands into an inflatable dome, and also uses lunar regolith to encase the base in a protective shell using robot-operated 3D printers.
NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center experts in Huntsville, Alabama, are conducting crucial tests for a safe lunar landing. They have been firing a 14-inch 3D-printed hybrid rocket motor ...
Come see inside the Lunar Module using 3D animation. The Apollo Lunar Module was the part of the Apollo Spacecraft that landed on the moon. The LM was split up into two parts - the ascent stage ...
On March 3, 1969, Apollo 9 launched three astronauts on the first crewed test flight of NASA’s lunar module, which astronauts later used to land on the moon. Astronauts James McDivitt, David ...
The team developed a 3D mechanical and thermal model to simulate lunar conditions, providing a foundation for future design iterations and higher Technical Readiness Levels (TRL). This work lays the ...
Photos taken by the India Space Research Organization moon orbiter Chandrayaan 2 recently show aerial images of Apollo 11 and Apollo 12's lunar landing vehicles.
Apollo 10’s lunar module, Snoopy, is still out there, drifting aimlessly around the solar system, waiting for some future exo-archaeologist to snatch it up for display at the Smithsonian.
