Space Technology

The Apollo 11 moon landing was a historic event that took place on July 20, 1969. It was the culmination of the Apollo program initiated by NASA (the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) with the goal of sending humans to the Moon. The crew of Apollo 11 consisted of three astronauts: Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins. Armstrong and Aldrin were the two astronauts who actually landed on the Moon, while Collins remained in orbit aboard the command module. The journey to the Moon took about four days. On July 20, Armstrong and Aldrin descended in the Lunar Module, named "Eagle," to the Moon's surface in the region known as the Sea of Tranquility. As Neil Armstrong made his way down the ladder, he famously spoke the words, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind," becoming the first person to set foot on the lunar surface. The mission collected valuable scientific data and samples from the Moon's surface, and the astronauts planted the American flag to symbolize their achievement. They also conducted experiments and took photographs before returning to the Lunar Module. In total, they spent about two and a half hours outside the spacecraft. After rendezvousing with Collins in the command module, the crew began their journey back to Earth. They splashed down in the Pacific Ocean on July 24, 1969, successfully concluding their mission. The Apollo 11 moon landing was a significant milestone for space exploration and a testament to human ingenuity and determination. It remains one of the most remarkable achievements in the history of mankind's exploration of outer space.

A world first. New footage from Mars rendered in stunning 4K resolution. We also talk about the cameras on board the Martian rovers and how we made the video. The cameras on board the rovers were the height of technology when the respective missions launched. A question often asked is: ‘Why don’t we actually have live video from Mars?’ Although the cameras are high quality, the rate at which the rovers can send data back to earth is the biggest challenge. Curiosity can only send data directly back to earth at 32 kilo-bits per second. Instead, when the rover can connect to the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, we get more favourable speeds of 2 Megabytes per second. However, this link is only available for about 8 minutes each Sol, or Martian day. As you would expect, sending HD video at these speeds would take a long long time. As nothing really moves on Mars, it makes more sense to take and send back images. Credit: NASA Music from Epidemic Sound
