NASA Astronauts Stuck in Space: The Ultimate Escape from Earthly Chores

It looks like NASA astronauts Barry “Butch” Wilmore and Sunita Williams have stumbled upon the ultimate escape plan—by accident! After a series of technical glitches with Boeing’s Starliner, these two space-faring pioneers find themselves unexpectedly stuck aboard the International Space Station (ISS), and it seems they’re embracing their interstellar predicament with a surprising amount of…

What Has NASA Found on the Mars So Far?

[dominopseu]

I think the Navajo nation is right to question NASA's intent to place human remains on the moon.

It's true that no one people can claim ownership of the moon. It is our collective heritage as human earthlings. But you know what else is our collective heritage? Mount Everest.

And the last thing I want is for the moon to become the next dumping ground for rich ashholes.

I feel like nobody on Tumblr knows that the international space station is being discontinued.

Did you know that? In less than a decade it will be gone

Moon Mountain Named After Melba Roy Mouton, NASA Mathematician

Award-winning NASA mathematician and computer programmer Melba Mouton is being honored with the naming of a mountain at the Moon’s South Pole. Mouton joined NASA in 1959, just a year after the space agency was established. She was the leader of a team that coded computer programs to calculate spacecraft trajectories and locations. Her contributions were instrumental to landing the first humans on the Moon.

She also led the group of "human computers," who tracked the Echo satellites. Roy and her team's computations helped produce the orbital element timetables by which millions could view the satellite from Earth as it passed overhead.

The towering lunar landmark now known as “Mons Mouton” stands at a height greater than 19,000 feet. The mountain was created over billions of years by lunar impacts. Huge craters lie around its base—some with cliff-like edges that descend into areas of permanent darkness. Mons Mouton is the future landing site of VIPER, our first robotic Moon rover. The rover will explore the Moon’s surface to help gain a better understanding of the origin of lunar water. Here are things to know:

Mons Mouton is a wide, relatively flat-topped mountain that stretches roughly 2,700 square miles

The mountain is the highest spot at the Moon’s South Pole and can be seen from Earth with a telescope

Our VIPER Moon rover will explore Mons Mouton over the course of its 100-day mission

VIPER will map potential resources which will help inform future landing sites under our Artemis program

The VIPER mission is managed by our Ames Research Center in California’s Silicon Valley. The approximately 1,000-pound rover will be delivered to the Moon by a commercial vendor as part of our Commercial Lunar Payload Services initiative, delivering science and technology payloads to and near the Moon.

Sometimes you’re minding your own business, slurping a capri sun, and sometimes NASA satellites catch you doing it and they think you’re an alien.
