Exactamente 45 años después, Audi conmemora este histórico evento con “Apollo 45”, un video creado especialmente para la ocasión. En unos 65 segundos, rinde homenaje al famoso anuncio de la marca de los cuatro aros de los años 90 sobre la tracción quattro, protagonizado por los Inuits, y ofrece a los espectadores un vistazo a la “Misión a la Luna” con el Audi lunar quattro, programada para 2019. El nuevo anuncio está ambientado en el año 2030. Dos astronautas que exploran la superficie de la Luna encuentran unas huellas: las dejadas por Neil Amstrong en 1969, las del Lunar Rover que aterrizó en 1972 con el Apollo 17, y las huellas del Audi lunar quattro que llegó a la Luna en una misión especial en 2019. El spot hace un guiño a otro anuncio comercial de la década de los años ´90, en el que un padre inuit enseña a su hijo cómo identificar las huellas que dejan distintos animales en la nueve, hasta llegar a identificar las de los neumáticos de un Audi quattro.

    www.newspaceinternational.com NewSpace International - May/June 2019 1 2 NewSpace International - May/June 2019 www.newspaceinternational.com #EDITOR #ROBOTS #LEARNING #MACHINES Dr Amy Saunders Editor Technology is coming on in leaps and bounds right now, and the world is transforming into an entirely new place right before our eyes. Today’s advances in robotics are astounding – and we can fully expect to see robotic digital assistants playing a role within the satellite sector within the years to come – but what’s equally fascinating is the way that humans respond to these robots. Many of us will have seen the 2004 movie ‘I, Robot,’ in which protagonist Will Smith is inherently distrustful of robots after one rescued him from drowning over his son (due to relative probabilities of survival), leading to the death of a small child. The film brought certain key issues in the field of psychology and robotics to the forefront of our imaginations that have since been addressed in numerous experiments and studies. A recent experiment published in the PLOS ONE journal has shown that people are susceptible to social cues even when those cues come from robots, rather than other humans. Some 89 volunteers were recruited to complete tasks with the help of a small humanoid robot called Nao. The volunteers were informed that the tasks – which involved answering a series of either/or questions such as ‘Do you prefer pasta or pizza?’ were designed to enhance Nao’s learning algorithms. However, the real test came at the end of the study, when the volunteers were asked to turn off Nao.

  • Kickstarting a New Era of Lunar Industrialization Via Campaign of Lunar COTS Missions
    Kickstarting a New Era of Lunar Industrialization via Campaign of Lunar COTS Missions Dr. Allison F. Zunigai, Mark Turnerii, Dr. Daniel Raskyiii and Robert B. Pittmaniv NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, CA 94035 and Edgar Zapatav NASA Kennedy Space Center, FL 32899 To support the goals of expanding our human presence and current economic sphere beyond LEO, a new plan was constructed for NASA to enter into partnerships with industry to foster and incentivize a new era of lunar industrialization. For NASA to finally be successful in achieving sustainable human exploration missions beyond LEO, lessons learned from our space history have shown that it is essential for current program planning to include affordable and economic development goals as well as address top national priorities to obtain much needed public support. In the last 58 years of NASA’s existence, only Apollo’s human exploration missions beyond LEO were successful since it was proclaimed to be a top national priority during the 1960’s. However, the missions were not sustainable and ended abruptly in 1972 due to lack of funding and insufficient economic gain. Ever since Apollo, there have not been any human missions beyond LEO because none of the proposed program plans were economical or proclaimed a top national priority. The proposed plan outlines a new campaign of low-cost, commercial-enabled lunar COTS (Commercial Orbital Transfer Services) missions which is an update to the Lunar COTS plan previously described. The objectives of this new campaign of missions are to prospect for resources, determine the economic viability of extracting those resources and assess the value proposition of using these resources in future exploration architectures such as Mars.

    7th International Conference on Astrodynamics Tools and Techniques (ICATT) Report of Contributions https://indico.esa.int/e/7-ICATT 7th International … / Report of Contributions POINCARE: A MULTI-BODY, … Contribution ID: 0 Type: Oral presentation at the conference POINCARE: A MULTI-BODY, MULTI-SYSTEM TRAJECTORY DESIGN TOOL Wednesday, 7 November 2018 14:00 (30 minutes) Poincare is a modular trajectory design tool based on a catalog of three-body science orbits and a differential corrector to compute connecting transfer arcs between orbits in multi-body systems. Poincare attempts to offer a unified approach, i.e., an “all-in-one” integrated search withinone interface and setup in MONTE (JPL’s signature astrodynamic computing platform) The Science Orbit Design Tool – first module –facilitates rapid and well-informed decisions regarding these- lection of periodic orbits for a particular mission and enables the simultaneous study of various orbit alternatives. The second module – the Reference Trajectory Design Tool – allows theuser to calculate optimal transfer paths from a departure orbit to a science orbit via dynamical systems structures, resulting in an end-to-end reference trajectory. In the 1960’s, the application of insight from the circular restricted three-body problem (CR3BP) moved into the ‘space age’ when a mission to the Lagrange points was considered for NASA’s Apollo program. Since then, many of the structures that emerge in the CR3BP have been more actively exploited in trajectory design. Consequently, successful missions to the vicinity of the Lagrange points have since been launched, including the International Sun-Earth Explorer-3 (ISEE- 3), the Solar Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), the Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE), and the Microwave Anisotropy Probe (MAP).

As well as the development of the lunar vehicle, the mission has now also achieved a further landmark: The German space travel team “Part-Time Scientists” announced yesterday at Audi City in Berlin that it plans to complete the 385,000 km trip to the Moon from the end of 2017 using a launcher booked with Spaceflight Inc. As an early technology partner and ambassador of the Part-Time Scientists’ mission, Audi has been instrumental in generating extensive publicity for the project and bringing other strong partners on board. Audi and the German group of engineers announced their partnership in early 2015. Their common objective: to bring together the technological expertise of both partners in getting a rover to travel about on the Moon, under the auspices of the Google Lunar XPRIZE competition. A group of 16 Audi experts has since been supporting the Part-Time Scientists with expertise in a large number of technical areas and has optimized the rover for the lunar mission.
