  • Exploration of the Moon
    Exploration of the Moon The physical exploration of the Moon began when Luna 2, a space probe launched by the Soviet Union, made an impact on the surface of the Moon on September 14, 1959. Prior to that the only available means of exploration had been observation from Earth. The invention of the optical telescope brought about the first leap in the quality of lunar observations. Galileo Galilei is generally credited as the first person to use a telescope for astronomical purposes; having made his own telescope in 1609, the mountains and craters on the lunar surface were among his first observations using it. NASA's Apollo program was the first, and to date only, mission to successfully land humans on the Moon, which it did six times. The first landing took place in 1969, when astronauts placed scientific instruments and returnedlunar samples to Earth. Apollo 12 Lunar Module Intrepid prepares to descend towards the surface of the Moon. NASA photo. Contents Early history Space race Recent exploration Plans Past and future lunar missions See also References External links Early history The ancient Greek philosopher Anaxagoras (d. 428 BC) reasoned that the Sun and Moon were both giant spherical rocks, and that the latter reflected the light of the former. His non-religious view of the heavens was one cause for his imprisonment and eventual exile.[1] In his little book On the Face in the Moon's Orb, Plutarch suggested that the Moon had deep recesses in which the light of the Sun did not reach and that the spots are nothing but the shadows of rivers or deep chasms.

  • THE SOVIET MOON PROGRAM in the 1960S, the United States Was Not the Only Country That Was Trying to Land Someone on the Moon and Bring Him Back to Earth Safely
    AIAA AEROSPACE M ICRO-LESSON Easily digestible Aerospace Principles revealed for K-12 Students and Educators. These lessons will be sent on a bi-weekly basis and allow grade-level focused learning. - AIAA STEM K-12 Committee. THE SOVIET MOON PROGRAM In the 1960s, the United States was not the only country that was trying to land someone on the Moon and bring him back to Earth safely. The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, also called the Soviet Union, also had a manned lunar program. This lesson describes some of it. Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS): ● Discipline: Engineering Design ● Crosscutting Concept: Systems and System Models ● Science & Engineering Practice: Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions GRADES K-2 K-2-ETS1-1. Ask questions, make observations, and gather information about a situation people want to change to define a simple problem that can be solved through the development of a new or improved object or tool. Have you ever been busy doing something when somebody challenges you to a race? If you decide to join the race—and it is usually up to you whether you join or not—you have to stop what you’re doing, get up, and start racing. By the time you’ve gotten started, the other person is often halfway to the goal. This is the sort of situation the Soviet Union found itself in when President Kennedy in 1961 announced that the United States would set a goal of landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth before the end of the decade.

  • Humanity and Space
    10/17/2012!! !!!!!! Project Number: MH-1207 Humanity and Space An Interactive Qualifying Project Submitted to WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment for the Degree of Bachelor of Science by: Matthew Beck Jillian Chalke Matthew Chase Julia Rugo Professor Mayer H. Humi, Project Advisor Abstract Our IQP investigates the possible functionality of another celestial body as an alternate home for mankind. This project explores the necessary technological advances for moving forward into the future of space travel and human development on the Moon and Mars. Mars is the optimal candidate for future human colonization and a stepping stone towards humanity’s expansion into outer space. Our group concluded space travel and interplanetary exploration is possible, however international political cooperation and stability is necessary for such accomplishments. 2 Executive Summary This report provides insight into extraterrestrial exploration and colonization with regards to technology and human biology. Multiple locations have been taken into consideration for potential development, with such qualifying specifications as resources, atmospheric conditions, hazards, and the environment. Methods of analysis include essential research through online media and library resources, an interview with NASA about the upcoming Curiosity mission to Mars, and the assessment of data through mathematical equations. Our findings concerning the human aspect of space exploration state that humanity is not yet ready politically and will not be able to biologically withstand the hazards of long-term space travel. Additionally, in the field of robotics, we have the necessary hardware to implement adequate operational systems yet humanity lacks the software to implement rudimentary Artificial Intelligence. Findings regarding the physics behind rocketry and space navigation have revealed that the science of spacecraft is well-established.

  • Russia Celebrates Gagarin's Conquest of Space 12 April 2011, by Stuart Williams
    Russia celebrates Gagarin's conquest of space 12 April 2011, by Stuart Williams granted the 27-year-old carpenter's son historical immortality, Gagarin ejected from his capsule and parachuted down into a field in the Saratov region of central Russia. From that moment on, his life, and the course of modern space exploration, would never be the same again. "I believe it was a truly revolutionary event," Medvedev said in an interview with Chinese television, a transcript of which was published by the Kremlin. "It was an outstanding achievement of Soviet space exploration, which divided the world into the time Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin salutes the crowd during before and the time after the flight, which became an official visit to London in 1961. Russia has marked a the space era," Medvedev said. half century since Gagarin became the first man in space, the greatest victory of Soviet science which The Soviet Union scored its greatest propaganda expanded human horizons and still remembered by victory over the United States, spurring its Cold Russians as their finest hour.

    number 2, march 2000 on station The Newsletter of the Directorate of Manned Spaceflight and Microgravity in this issue A Year of Milestones foreword A Year of Milestones Jörg Feustel-Büechl Jörg Feustel-Büechl ESA Director of Manned Spaceflight and Microgravity ESA Director of Manned Spaceflight and Microgravity We can be certain that this is a crucial columbus year for the International Space Station, Columbus: the First Milestone 4 both in respect of the programme’s global partnership and of the many events of recent & relevant considerable importance for our European News 6 part of the programme. Globally, we are now looking forward to era the launch of Russia’s ‘Zvezda’ Service Europe’s Robotic Arm 10 Module which was originally expected to Richard H. Bentall appear last year but, owing to Proton launcher problems, was postponed. Now the Space Station Partners have agreed on a launch microgravity window of 8-14 July from the Baikonur Cosmodrome. It marks an Biolab 12 important milestone in Space Station history because it will open up Pierfilippo Manieri opportunities for the first experiments aboard the Station and provide the first permanent manned capability. Continuous zvezda occupation will be achieved in the following missions before the end New Star in Orbit 14 of this year with a crew of three astronauts, taking the Station into its Christian Feichtinger operational phase even though there are many more missions to come before assembly is completed. foton-12 results These two major events will allow us to begin the New Stone, Survival & Yeast Millennium with real progress in our global partnership! experiments 17 Of course, ESA can be proud of its major contribution to this Zvezda module: the Data Management System (DMS-R) will control simulation Russia’s station elements, and provide guidance and navigation for Preparing for Space 20 the whole orbital complex.
