☆ China’s Chang’e-6 moon probe stands by for launch as space race with US heats up
  + stars: | 2024-05-02 | by ( Simone Mccarthy | Marc Stewart | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min
China’s planned 53-day mission would see the Chang’e-6 lander touch down in a gaping crater on the moon’s far side, which never faces Earth. China became the first and only country to land on the moon’s far side during its 2019 Chang’e-4 mission. Ambitious missionThe Chang’e-6 probe will be a key test for China’s space capabilities in its effort to realize leader Xi Jinping’s “eternal dream” of building the country into a space power. This time, to communicate with Earth from the moon’s far side, Chang’e-6 must rely on the Queqiao-2 satellite, launched into lunar orbit in March. This time, China has said the Chang’e-6 mission will carry scientific instruments or payloads from France, Italy, Pakistan and the European Space Agency.

An image showing dark grey clouds and small specks of light on Jupiter is an illustration created using data from the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Jupiter mission ‘Juno’, and not a photograph captured by the James Webb Space Telescope as being claimed by some social media users. The graphic can be found on a page on NASA's website titled “Shallow Lightning on Jupiter (Illustration)” (here), credited to Gerald Eichstädt, a “citizen scientist” with NASA who contributes to the Juno mission (here). NASA launched the infrared James Webb Space Telescope in December 2021, describing it as the premiere space-science observatory of the next decade. The image of a storm in Jupiter’s atmosphere is an illustration, not a photograph captured by the James Webb Telescope. This article was produced by the Reuters Fact Check team.

An asteroid the size of a big truck raced over Earth Thursday, just 2,200 miles above the planet’s surface, according to a NASA tracker, in what scientists had said would be one of the closest approaches ever recorded. Davide Farnocchia, a navigation engineer at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, had predicted the asteroid, named 2023 BU, would travel over the Pacific Ocean west of southern Chile, Thursday afternoon Pacific time.

The final leg of NASA’s inaugural Artemis mission is expected to unfold Sunday as the spacecraft the agency sent to orbit the moon tries to return to Earth. The crew module on the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Orion spacecraft is slated to land under parachutes in the Pacific Ocean around 12:40 p.m. ET Sunday, off the coast of Mexico’s Baja California, according to NASA’s re-entry plan.
☆ NASA’s Artemis I Moon Mission Concludes With Orion Splashdown in the Pacific

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Orion spacecraft returned to Earth after a nearly monthlong voyage that took it to orbit the moon, concluding a test flight that the agency deemed a success and helping to reinvigorate its ambitions for deep-space exploration. After facing intense heat when it hurtled through the atmosphere, the Orion crew module—a gumdrop-shaped vehicle that astronauts are expected to travel in during future missions—landed in the Pacific Ocean under parachutes at 12:40 p.m. ET on Sunday, the agency said. The splashdown was west of Baja California in Mexico.
☆ Artemis I Moon Launch Attempt Set for Early Wednesday

NASA will try to get its enormous moon rocket off a launchpad for a third time early Wednesday morning after technical problems stymied earlier attempts. The mission is a critical jumping-off point for Artemis, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s multiyear agency program to return astronauts to the lunar surface for the first time since 1972 and set the stage for broader agency space-exploration efforts.

Companies behind NASA’s Artemis moon program—including SpaceX, Boeing and Lockheed Martin Corp.—are working on future missions as the agency prepares to try to get its first lunar rocket off the ground next month. Artemis is the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s effort to return astronauts to the surface of the moon for the first time since 1972, among other goals, using several space vehicles developed by a gaggle of large aerospace companies and smaller suppliers.
☆ NASA Hits Another Fueling Leak in Artemis Moon Rocket Test
  + stars: | 2022-09-21 | by ( Micah Maidenberg | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
NASA began testing repairs and new procedures for fueling its moon rocket, but ran into a hydrogen leak not long after the practice run began, the agency said. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s test on Wednesday aims to demonstrate that engineers can transfer vast amounts of super-cold propellants—liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen—into the rocket’s tanks. The planned hourslong test is a precursor to the agency attempting another launch, following two scrubbed attempts over the past month.
