NASA is unable to open the container with the Bennu sample

Since landing almost three months ago, NASA has faced challenges in opening the container holding soil samples from the asteroid "Bennu." While the braking parachute failed during the landing in the Utah desert, the main parachutes compensated for its absence. However, a new issue arises as the lid of the sample container cannot be fully opened due to two screws being unresponsive. Experts at the Johnson Space Center in Houston are attempting to retrieve at least part of the valuable cargo using forceps since the container cannot be fully opened. Additionally, there is material located outside the container.

The Gateway to Space

Strictly speaking, the atmosphere has no upper limit; it gradually thins out until, at an altitude of several thousand kilometers, even lightweight helium atoms can escape Earth's gravitational pull. Within the atmosphere, distinct layers can be identified, with the most common division based on temperature, which undergoes characteristic changes with increasing altitude.

The Lunar Cruiser is intended to operate on the Moon

Together with the Japanese space agency JAXA, the Japanese automaker Toyota is working on a lunar vehicle: the Lunar Cruiser. The six-wheeled off-road vehicle is intended to not only drive on the lunar surface from 2029 (perhaps even on the first lunar roads) but also on Earth.

The Lunar Cruiser has a total range of approximately 10,000 kilometers and is powered by hydrogen fuel cell technology. Its living space measures 13 cubic meters and can accommodate up to four people. With a length of 6 meters, a width of 5.20 meters, and a height of 3.80 meters, it is roughly the size of two compact buses parked side by side.

Sample from Asteroid Bennu: Traces of Water and Carbon

Houston - According to the US space agency NASA, a sample of rubble from asteroid Bennu, which was dropped to Earth approximately three weeks ago, contains traces of water and carbon. Initial investigations of the sample revealed these findings, but further in-depth analyses are still required, NASA announced during a press conference on Wednesday, where they also unveiled photos and videos of the sample for the first time. This marks the first successfully brought to Earth sample from an asteroid in the history of the US space agency, and it is the largest such sample ever collected.

Probe brings asteroid rock to Earth

It was a brief, intense puff. Then, dust and rocks that had remained untouched for billions of years were sent into the air. The collection of the rock sample from the asteroid Bennu, far out in space, lasted just five seconds. Following that, the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft spent more than two years returning to Earth.

Exceeded Expectations: Mars Rover Perseverance Completes Oxygen Production

The NASA rover Perseverance has now successfully produced oxygen on Mars for the 16th and final time, surpassing the mission's expectations. This announcement comes from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory of the U.S. space agency. Since the activation of the Moxie instrument (Mars Oxygen In-Situ Resource Utilization Experiment), 122 grams of oxygen have been produced. This is equivalent to what a small dog would breathe in over 10 hours, or approximately four hours of oxygen for an adult human. In total, Moxie generated 12 grams per hour, more than double the initially expected amount. The achieved purity level was at 98 percent or higher.
