With SpaceX continuing to head towards its third Starship integrated test flight, NASA is also testing the Starship upper stage's design suitability to let astronauts to live and work on the lunar surface. Starship is a central component of NASA's Human Landing System (HLS) lander for the Artemis program, and one major reason that it was selected for the multi billion dollar award was because of its volume.
This volume, which allows NASA to deliver copious amounts of cargo to the lunar surface once Starship becomes operational, also means that astronauts must use an elevator to descend from their crew quarters on top of the ship to the ground below them.
While SpaceX isn't shy about sharing its progress with Starship development in Texas, the firm is somewhat quieter when developing the Starship lunar lander. This lander is a customized upper-stage Starship that will be customized to accommodate landing conditions on the Moon and the requirements of long-term habitability.
One key feature of the lunar lander is its elevator since, without it, astronauts will be unable to exit the ship and walk around the Moon. In fact, since most of the upper stage Starship is either tanks or engines, vehicles designed for Mars missions might also rely on an elevator to ferry crew and cargo to the surface.
Now, NASA has shared the first publicly available image of the elevator similar to the one its Artemis crew will use to leave their ship and descend to the lunar surface. With SpaceX developing the Starship rockets in Texas, the space agency's astronauts tested a SpaceX mockup of the Starship elevator, presumably at the firm's facilities in Hawthorne, California.
While NASA has not announced the crew for its Artemis 3 mission yet, its choice of crew for the SpaceX HLS elevator test was interesting. Two astronauts, Nicole Mann and Douglas Wheelock, tested the equipment. Among these, only Mann is part of the Artemis generation of astronauts that the space agency announced in December 2020. She is part of a group of 18 that will fly on various missions to the Moon, and Mann's latest trip to space ended in March this year after she splashed down to complete the NASA SpaceX Crew-5 mission to the International Space Station (ISS).
Due to the requirements of moving and working on the Moon, Artemis astronauts will use brand new space suits made by Axiom Space. Since these suits are currently being fabricated, the astronauts used suit mockups as part of their test. They provided SpaceX feedback about the elevator's switches, space, safety equipment and performance while it is moving to and

In a groundbreaking move, Google has unveiled an advanced AI-powered multisearch feature in the United States, reshaping the way users engage with their mobile devices. The innovative Google AI multisearch feature is set to roll out on January 31. It caters to users of cutting-edge smartphones like the Google Pixel 8, Google Pixel 8 Pro, and the newly launched Samsung Galaxy S24 series.
Did you know that not all asteroids have the same composition? According to NASA, the three primary classifications of asteroids are C-type, S-type, and M-type. C-type asteroids, which are composed primarily of carbon-rich substances, are the most frequent. S-type asteroids, which are made up mainly of silicate minerals, are less common. M-type asteroids, which are primarily composed of metal, are the least prevalent. One asteroid, whose composition is still unknown, is set to pass Earth today, January 18. Know all about this close encounter.
On the day the South Korean tech major launched its flagship smartphone series at the Unpacked product launch event in San Jose, California, it also teased a new product - Samsung Galaxy Ring. This is its latest push into the personal and health fitness segment and here it will come face-to-face with rival Oura Ring. The Samsung Galaxy Ring will also look to take on Apple which is well established in this segment with its wearables gadgets. The new Galaxy Smart Ring packs sensors that the company believes will be enough to persuade consumers to consider it a viable gadget vis a vis the competition.
The anticipation for Samsung's first Galaxy Unpacked event of the year is reaching a fever pitch, and leaks of alleged promotional videos are adding fuel to the excitement. Recently surfaced online, these videos provide a sneak peek into the advanced AI capabilities of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S24 series, promising a host of innovative features.
There’s a small moment in Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon that fundamentally changed the way I viewed the entire story. The film, now streaming on Apple TV Plus, is a straightforward recounting of a painful time in Native American history — the infuriating true story of the 1920s Osage murders. But this one scene goes past simple history, and makes the movie something essential.
A slump in smartphone demand did not shake Apple’s resolve or the sales momentum of its iPhones because, according to the latest data, the California-based giant achieved one milestone that it took the firm 13 years to fulfill ever since it launched the first iPhone, and that is overtaking its closest adversary, Samsung, in global smartphone shipments.
NVIDIA has secured a huge AI order from the Indian data center operator Yotta, as total order valuation is expected to exceed the $ billion mark.
When the first US-made moon lander launched in more than 50 years experienced a critical failure shortly after reaching space on Monday, the news was initially a shock. But NASA was prepared. The Peregrine lander, built by a Pittsburgh-based startup called Astrobotic, had barely been deployed into orbit before it suffered an apparent propulsion error, causing it to leak propellant into space. After a day, the company said there was no chance the spacecraft would reach the moon.
Lockheed Martin Corp. and NASA gave the public a sneak peek of a plane that could pave the way for cutting some flight times in half. The X-59, which was unveiled on Friday afternoon in Palmdale, California, has been designed to fly faster than the speed of sound with much less noise. When planes break the sound barrier — called Mach 1 — a loud and continuous sonic boom is created that can shatter windows on the ground. The US banned civilian aircraft from reaching this speed over land in 1973.
