Scientists Train A Robot To Walk on The Moon
NASA is training a robot dog to teach it how to walk on the surface of the moon. The ultimate objective of the robot is to explore the Moon’s surface and potentially other celestial bodies in the future.

NASA has unveiled an experimental aircraft that can travel 1.4 times the speed of sound.
A US-based research lab uncovered solar-wind hydrogen in moon rocks, pointing towards the availability of crucial resources for future space missions.
NASA’s Dragonfly, a car-sized rotorcraft, is preparing for a mission to explore Saturn’s largest moon, Titan. NASA’s Dragonfly rotorcraft will explore the moon to look for signs of life amid a highly Nitrogen-saturated environment.
NASA will be sending three rockets into the moon’s shadow on the coming Saturday. The space agency is expected to examine the moon during a solar eclipse for the very first time.
Scientists have been eagerly waiting to receive the oldest space sample expected to land on earth on Sunday. Nasa’s Osiris-Rex capsule will be carrying chunks of space rock believed to be 4.6 billion-years-old.
NASA’s Juno spacecraft has captured remarkable images of the volcano world on one of Jupiter’s moons, called Io. NASA’s Juno spacecraft recently approached the intensely volcanic celestial body, after circling the gas giant Jupiter for around nine years. By the end of this year, Juno is expected to make the closest pass near Lo, NASA explained.
NASA experienced a temporary disruption in communication with Voyager 2, the second-farthest human-made spacecraft dispatched into space. This incident occurred recently when a mistaken command from flight controllers unintentionally caused a two-degree tilt of the spacecraft’s antenna away from Earth, leading to the loss of contact.
NASA has locked up four volunteer scientists inside a 3-D Mars stimulator for the next 378 days. The Mars stimulator is based at the Johnson Space Center in Texas, where the agency trains its own members to experience real-life situations on Mars.
NASA has shared a fascinating photo of a flower grown in the International Space Station that instantly went viral on social media. The image was shared by NASA on Instagram which said that the agency started growing the colorful zinnia flower back in 2015 and so far, the experiment has been a success.
NASA is set to test a new snake-like robot to study one of the 83 Saturn’s moons. The new robot called EELS, the Exobiology Extant Life Surveyor, will look for water and life-supporting evidence on the surface of Enceladus, an icy moon of Saturn planet.
Japan’s H3 space rocket failed just shortly after the lift-off today. The brand-new rocket failed to ignite its second engine 5 minutes and 27 seconds after the lift-off. Rocket failure was a huge blow to Japan’s Aerospace Exploration Agency because it was the first medium-lift rocket designed in three decades.
