Intuitive Machines Odysseus Lunar Lander: New Moon Landing Photos

Intuitive Machines: "The images included here are the closest observations of any spaceflight mission to the south pole region of the Moon. Odysseus is quite the photographer, capturing this image approximately 30 meters above the lunar surface while his main engine throttled down more than 24,000 mph. Another day of exploration on the south pole region of the Moon."

On February 22, 2024, the IM-1 Mission Nova-C Moon Lander, named "Odysseus," became the first American spacecraft to land on the Moon’s surface since the NASA Apollo 17 moon landing in 1972.

NASA Solar Observatory Captures Three X-class Solar Flares in February 2024

NASA Solar Observatory Captures Three X-class Solar Flares in February 2024

NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), in orbit around the sun since 2010, spotted three X-class flares on the Sun between February 21 and 22, 2024.  Watch this video to see what those events looked like in several wavelengths of extreme ultraviolet light that SDO captures. The video opens with quick shots of the three flares in different wavelength blends. The first is a blend of 131 and 171-angstrom-light imagery, the second is 171 and 304, and the last is 171 and 1600. Each wavelength highlights different temperature plasma and reveals different layers and features of the Sun. The 131 angstrom light shows both the extremely hot plasma of flares (6-10 million Kelvin) and cooler plasma (400,000 Kelvin).

Of course, the Sun does not behave the same way all the time. It goes through phases of high and low activity, which make up the solar cycle. Approximately every 11 years, the Sun’s geographic poles change their magnetic polarity – that is, the north and south magnetic poles swap. During this cycle, the Sun's photosphere, chromosphere, and corona change from quiet and calm to violently active.

The height of the Sun’s activity cycle, known as solar maximum, is a time of greatly increased solar storm activity. Sunspots, eruptions called solar flares, and coronal mass ejections are common at solar maximum.

The latest solar cycle—Solar Cycle 25—started in December 2019 when solar minimum occurred, according to the Solar Cycle 25 Prediction Panel, an international group of experts co-sponsored by NASA and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Scientists now expect the Sun’s activity to ramp up toward the next predicted maximum in July 2025.

Metal Scar Found on Cannibal Star WD 0816-310 | European Southern Observatory

Metal Scar Found on Cannibal Star WD 0816-310 | European Southern Observatory

Using European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), astronomers have found a metal ‘scar’ imprinted on the surface of a dead star. This video summarizes the discovery.

When a star like our Sun reaches the end of its life, it can ingest the surrounding planets and asteroids that were born with it. This seems to be the case of the white dwarf WD 0816-310, the Earth-sized remnant of a star similar to, but somewhat larger than, our Sun.

The scar the team observed is a concentration of metals imprinted on its surface. These metals seem to originate from a planetary fragment as large as or possibly larger than Vesta, which is about 500 kilometers across and the second-largest asteroid in the Solar System.

Celestial 'Fossils': Globular Cluster NGC 1841 in Mensa | Hubble

Celestial 'Fossils': Globular Cluster NGC 1841 in Mensa | Hubble

This densely populated group of stars is the globular cluster known as NGC 1841. It is found within the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), a satellite galaxy to our Milky Way galaxy that lies about 162,000 light-years away. Satellite galaxies are galaxies that are bound by gravity in orbits around a more massive host galaxy. We typically think of our galaxy’s nearest galactic companion as being the Andromeda Galaxy, but it would be more accurate to say that Andromeda is the nearest galaxy that is not in orbit around the Milky Way galaxy. In fact, our galaxy is orbited by tens of known satellite galaxies that are far closer than Andromeda, the largest and brightest of these is the LMC. It is easily visible to the naked eye from the southern hemisphere (although this is decreasingly the case due to light pollution). 

The LMC is home to many globular clusters. These celestial bodies fall somewhere between open clusters—much less dense and tightly bound—and small, compact galaxies. Increasingly sophisticated observations have revealed the stellar populations, and other characteristics of globular clusters, to be varied and complex. It is not well understood how these tightly-packed clusters form. However, there are certain consistencies across all globular clusters. They are very stable and are capable of lasting a long time. Thus, they can be very old. This means that globular clusters often contain large numbers of very old stars. This makes them akin to celestial ‘fossils’. Just as fossils provide insight into the early development of life on Earth, globular clusters such as NGC 1841 can help us learn about very early star formation in galaxies.

Image Description: A cluster of stars. Most of the stars are very small and uniform in size. They are bluish and cluster more densely together towards the center of the image. A number appear larger in the foreground. The stars give way to a dark background at the corners.

NASA RS-25 Moon Rocket Engine Nozzle Remove & Replace | Stennis Space Center

In early February 2024, teams at NASA’s Stennis Space Center near Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, completed an RS-25 nozzle remove-and-replace procedure as part of an ongoing hot fire series on the Fred Haise Test Stand. Using a specially adapted process and tools, team installed a new production nozzle for the second half of an ongoing 12-test series. NASA is completing a second hot fire series to certify production of new RS-25 engines by lead engines contractor Aerojet Rocketdyne for future Artemis missions to the Moon and beyond.

Artemis II Rocket Boosters: NASA “Worm” Logo Added | Kennedy Space Center

Artemis II Rocket Boosters: NASA “Worm” Logo Added | Kennedy Space Center

Teams with NASA’s Exploration Ground Systems Program at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida completed painting the NASA “worm” logotype onto the booster motor segments that will form the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket’s twin solid rocket boosters for Artemis II, the first crewed mission of NASA’s Artemis campaign. Crews began painting the logo Jan. 22, 2024, and completed the painting and priming process Feb. 16, 2024. 

When fully stacked, the SLS boosters stand 17 stories tall and are the largest, most powerful solid propellant boosters ever flown, providing more than 75% of the thrust at liftoff. Spanning 25 feet end to end—or roughly the length of one booster motor segment—the red logotype will be clearly visible on either side of the mega rocket’s boosters during launch and flight.

For more information about SLS, visit https://www.nasa.gov/sls

Artemis II will be NASA’s first crewed flight test of the Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft around the Moon to verify today’s capabilities for humans to explore deep space and pave the way for long-term exploration and science on the lunar surface.
