S27E44: Curiosity's Quest for Extinct Waterways
The Space, Astronomy & Science Podcast.
SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 44
*Mars Curiosity Rover Uncovers New Clues About Ancient Water
NASA's intrepid Mars Curiosity rover may have stumbled upon new evidence that liquid water lingered on the Red Planet much longer than scientists thought. Within Gale Crater's Mount Sharp, the rover is investigating a region that could shed light on Mars' watery past. Researchers are intrigued by a snake-like channel that suggests the possibility of ancient river activity, and Curiosity's findings here could significantly alter our understanding of Martian history and the timeline of water's disappearance.
*NASA Selects Companies for New Moon Buggies
The lunar surface is about to get new traffic: NASA has chosen three companies to develop the next generation of moon buggies. Intuitive Machines, Lunar Outpost, and Venturi Astrolab have been awarded a combined $4.6 billion to create lunar terrain vehicles for future Artemis missions. These vehicles will not only support scientific exploration but also operate autonomously for research purposes, setting the stage for future human and robotic activities on the Moon and beyond.
*The Largest Digital Camera for Astronomy Completed
A monumental achievement in astronomical observation, the legacy survey of space and time camera has been completed. This 3200-megapixel behemoth, poised to be the core of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, is set to capture the southern night sky with unparalleled detail. Over a decade-long survey, it will help researchers probe the mysteries of dark energy, dark matter, and provide a wealth of data on the universe's expansion, galaxy formation, and the objects within our own solar system.
