    The Space Launch System will be NASA's first exploration-class vehicle since the Saturn V took American astronauts to the moon over 40 years ago. With its superior lift capability, the SLS will allow us to explore cis-lunar space, near-Earth asteroids, Mars and its moons and beyond.

  • EuroGeo team developed a wearable-computer platform for testing computer-vision exploration algorithms in real-time at geological or astrobiological field sites, focusing on the concept of "uncommon mapping"  in order to identify contrasting areas in an image of a planetary surface. Recently, the system was made more ergonomic and easy to use by porting the system into a phone-cam platform connected to a remote server.

    As I mentioned it into my thesis, this engine bridges the gap between chemical and low-thrust propulsion systems. To be more specific: Isp should vary between 1000 and 30000s, and the thrust amplitude should reach up to 1200 N. It is interesting to see that the concept is actually moving forward ...

    They want so much to reduce the price of the program that they forgot that the ultimate goal is Mars ... cos' this would not be a technology demonstration anymore ... am I wrong ?

    Eh, the swarm flyby gravimetry is very similar to the "measuring gravitational fields" project I proposed in the brewery

    Brine deposits below the surface should in theory be able to hold enough oxygen to support microbial aerobic lifeforms. The quest continues.
