  • Artemis II Mission Overview News Conference (Sept. 23, 2025)

    Artemis II Mission Overview News Conference (Sept. 23, 2025)

    After the successful Artemis I uncrewed flight around the Moon in 2022, Artemis II is the next step in our journey from the Moon to Mars. This mission will be the Artemis program’s first crewed mission, with four astronauts flying around the Moon in 10 days. This flight will confirm the systems and hardware necessary for human deep space travel. Artemis II is scheduled for no later than April 2026.

    In this news conference, leaders in the Artemis program will discuss the mission and answer questions from the media. The participants include:
    – Lakiesha Hawkins, acting deputy associate administrator, Exploration Systems Development Mission Directorate, NASA Headquarters
    – Charlie Blackwell-Thompson, Artemis launch director, NASA’s Kennedy Space Center
    – Judd Frieling, lead Artemis II ascent flight director, NASA Johnson
    – Jeff Radigan, lead Artemis II flight director, NASA Johnson
    – Rick Henfling, lead Artemis II entry flight director, NASA Johnson
    – Daniel Florez, test director, Exploration Ground Systems, NASA Kennedy

    Overview of Geologic Structures Part 1: Rock Deformation, Stress and Strain

    Now that we’ve briefly gone over the history of the Earth, it’s time to look at some different geologic structures that span all those eons. This will require gaining an understanding of rock deformation. We need to discuss the terms stress and strain, as well as Young’s modulus, which describes their relationship. From there we can describe the different types of rock deformation. Let’s go!

  • Artemis II: Mission Overview

    Artemis II: Mission Overview

    The approximately 10-day Artemis II flight test will launch on the agency’s powerful Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, prove the Orion spacecraft’s life-support systems, and validate the capabilities and techniques needed for humans to live and work in deep space.

    The astronauts will launch from NASA Kennedy Space Center’s Launch Pad 39B atop the SLS rocket as it generates 8.8 million pounds of thrust, beginning their 600,000 mile journey. Once out of our atmosphere, these star sailors will conduct a targeting demonstration and check the Orion spacecraft’s systems near Earth before they head around the Moon and back to Earth, reentering our atmosphere at 30 times the speed of sound, before gently splashing down in the Pacific Ocean.

    Artemis II’s crew is comprised of NASA astronauts commander Reid Wiseman, pilot Victor Glover, mission specialist Christina Koch; and Canadian Space Agency astronaut and mission specialist Jeremy Hansen.

    Sentinel-3 mission overview

    Sentinel-3A’s preparation is finished and the satellite will soon be shipped to the Russian Cosmodrome of Plesetsk, in Northern Russia for its launch on top of a Rockot planned end of this year. Carrying a suite of state-of-the-art instruments, Sentinel-3 is set to play a key role in Copernicus, the world’s largest environmental monitoring programme operated by the European Commission. It will provide highly accurate measurements on Earth’s oceans, land, ice and atmosphere.
