Even in these modern times, it’s not easy to land on the moon

Controllers at the iSpace mission control center in Tokyo received telemetry from the Hakuto-R lander right up to the moment when it should have landed. The controllers were not able to reestablish contact with the lander. The assumption is that the Hakuto failed to achieve a soft landing on the lunar surface. A preliminary analysis suggests that the vehicle ran out of propellent before it presumably crashed.

After SpaceX’s Starship launches, what happens next?

The first test launch of the Starship/Superheavy rocket was an “incomplete success,” as it blew up in the skies over the Gulf of Mexico. Still, SpaceX got a lot of data for the next attempt. To paraphrase Winston Churchill, it was not the beginning of the end, but certainly be the end of the beginning. A great deal must happen before the Starship is an operational vehicle as reliable as the company’s Falcon 9 rocket.

The European Space Agency has launched the Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) on an eight-year voyage to the moons of Jupiter. Starting in July 2031, JUICE will explore Jupiter, the largest planet in the solar system, and its three ocean-bearing moons, Europa, Callisto and Ganymede. In December 2034, JUICE will orbit Ganymede to give that moon a closer look. Ganymede is of particular interest as it is the only moon in the solar system known to have a magnetic field. The mission will end a year later when it expends its propellent and crash-lands onto Ganymede.

A smear of Christianity, capitalism, and the colonization of space

NASA’s announcement of the crew of Artemis II, a mission to circle around the moon in advance of a lunar landing, has sparked interest and excitement among people on Earth. The prospect of returning to the moon has burnished the space agency’s reputation and has created a new focus on the dreams of space entrepreneurs such as SpaceX’s Elon Musk and Blue Origin’s Jeff Bezos to colonize space and exploit its natural and energy resources for the benefit of all humankind.

However, the excitement is not universal.

Over 50 years have passed since humans from the planet Earth last voyaged to the moon. Much has changed in that time. Now, the next step in the NASA-led Artemis return to the moon program has four human faces. NASA recently announced the crew that will fly around the moon on the mission of Artemis II planned for late 2024 — one of the two planned, the other being the private Dear Moon flight.

Nuclear has several advantages over solar and wind. First, nuclear power runs 24/7 without the need for battery backup. It takes far less land to build on than renewables. And when one factors in fabrication costs, nuclear actually has a lower carbon footprint than renewable energy.
