Image right: The "Mighty Eagle," a NASA robotic prototype lander, soared to an altitude of more than 150 feet during a 45- second flight Oct. 25. (NASA/MSFC/Dennis Olive) "We are very proud of this safe, successful flight," said Dr. Greg Chavers, test lead for the project. "The vehicle flew to a record height, and proved that it could handle the increased altitude and flight duration." Previously, the "Mighty Eagle's" highest flight was 100 feet, with a flight duration of about 35 seconds. "We are really excited," added Patrick O'Leary, one of the test engineers for the project. "When I first started working on this project four years ago, our first vehicle -- called the Cold Gas Test Article -- could only do 10 feet for about 10 seconds.

Image right: The Marshall Center's new director, Patrick Scheuermann, addresses the workforce Sept. 26 in Morris Auditorium. (NASA/MSFC/Emmett Given) Robert Lightfoot, acting associate administrator at NASA Headquarters, has assumed that role on a permanent basis. Patrick Scheuermann, director of the Stennis Space Center, has become director of the Marshall Space Flight Center. Scheuermann replaces Robin Henderson, who filled the position on a temporary basis following former director Gene Goldman's retirement Aug. 3. Lightfoot began his assignment as acting associate administrator March 5. Scheuermann's successor as Stennis director is Dr. Richard J. Gilbrech, who previously had served as that center's deputy director. All three management changes are effective immediately. "Robert, Patrick and Rick are three of NASA's finest public servants who will continue to play key roles in our agency's future," said Bolden.

  • Mariner 2 to Venus in 1962: Dawn of a New Age
    Mariner 2 to Venus in 1962: Dawn of a New Age — By Dr. Paul M. Schenk, Lunar and Planetary Institute This year we celebrate the 50th anniversary of mankind’s first true steps beyond the Earth-Moon system and into deep space, for on December 14, 1962, Mariner 2 encountered the planet Venus. Scientists had been anticipating a flight to our nearest neighbor, Venus, for several years. The planet was literally shrouded in mystery, as its opaque cloud decks prevented us from determining even its rotation rate until radar beams suggested a very slow venusian day lasting months. There were no observable surface features on which to hang credible anthropomorphic concepts, such as the “canals” on Mars that were such a powerful stimulant to the imagination. The clouds thus gave free rein to fantasy, leading to lurid ideas of steaming jungles and large reptiles, bubbling oily wastes, or windblown craggy sand heaps. There were hints of very warm signals from Venus, but were they from the surface, or from high in the Latmosphere? The only way to know was to go there. In the race to Venus, politics intervened. With Sputnik in 1957, the road into space was finally opened, and thus began the Space Race. Venus was on the short list of targets to reach first by the two competing nations, the USA and the USSR. The Soviets launched first in 1961, but the mission failed when contact was lost after only a few weeks. The Americans knew that the Soviets would try again, so a pair of Ranger- derived spacecraft, Mariner-R, were built in a record time of 11 months.

The tests on the J-2X engine bring NASA one step closer to the first human-rated liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen rocket engine to be developed in 40 years. Image right: The J-2X powerpack assembly is successfully installed in the A-1 test stand and ready for testing of the turbomachinery components. (NASA/SSC) Tests will focus on the powerpack for the J-2X. This highly efficient and versatile advanced rocket engine is being designed to power the upper stage of NASA's Space Launch System, a new heavy-lift launch vehicle capable of missions beyond low-Earth orbit. The powerpack comprises components on the top portion of the engine, including the gas generator, oxygen and fuel turbopumps, and related ducts and valves that bring the propellants together to create combustion and generate thrust.
