Although the researchers tested the vehicle extensively on Earth, the only way to experiment with it in lunar gravity, for which it was built, was to put it on a plane capable of flying parabolic flights that can produce reduced gravity. The vehicle, essentially a high-tech lunar wheelbarrow officially called LESA for Lunar Equipment Support Assembly, or Lunar Evacuation System Assembly, has been developed by a team of scientists from the European Astronaut Center in Cologne, Germany.

The image shows a bridge of stars, nebulae and interstellar clouds that are not visible to the human eye and can only be revealed in their full beauty in dark regions unpolluted with urban light, such as the Chilean mountain tops. The photo was taken by Czech astrophotographer Petr Horálek during the recent NOIRLab 2022 Photo Expedition to all the NOIRLab sites, NOIRLab, which released the image on April 26, 2023, said in a statement (opens in new tab).

In the foreground of the image, the Russian Nauka multipurpose laboratory and Prichal docking module can be seen, as can the Soyuz MS-23 crew capsule. The Richat Structure is a geological feature in Mauritania consisting of concentric rings of sedimentary rock left behind by a volcanic dome that formed and eroded far back in Earth's history, exposing the ring-like layers of rock seen in the image taken by ISS.

At left, from top to bottom, are the Nauka multipurpose laboratory module's forward port, the Prichal docking module, and the Soyuz MS-23 crew ship. I think Remi is going to stick with his New Years resolution😆🐶 Richat Structure, also known as the "Eye of the Sahara," can be seen from the International Space Station as it orbited 259 miles above the African continent.

This is the first time a design file has been sent from the ground to make a tool. In 2014, The International Space Station’s 3-D printer completed the first phase of a NASA technology demonstration by printing a tool with a design file transmitted from the ground to the printer. Thanks to 3D printing, NASA can basically “email” tools to astronauts…Ī new project will bring a 3D printer to space to print necessary ship parts /ccjmCfOd8z It’s officially the last Monday of this decade!
