STEMEngagement this is the most money NASA has awarded in a student challenge directly connected toArtemis.The chosen teams will work out ways to gather data in and around the craters, generate wirelesspower for future infrastructure, and enable autonomous mobility even in the most extreme environ...
Intelligent Resource Management:The AI carefully manages the lander’s limited energy and computational resources to maximize its operational effectiveness. It strategically allocates power and computing capacity to essential tasks, ensuring the lander performs optimally in Europa’s challenging conditions. Th...
Rovers — mobile robots designed to explore planetary and lunar surfaces — require highly durable tires to navigate their environments effectively. Mars’ rocky and uneven landscape presents significant mobility challenges, making robust and flexible tires crucial for successful exploration. Shape memory al...
Next, we'll look at an invention with the smarts to protect NASA's high-tech equipment from the elements -- both on and off the Earth. 9: Anti-corrosion Coating One challenge with space exploration is that equipment must withstand radical conditions, from the heat of rocket exhaust to ex...
The Challenge A successful rocket launch is the product of many interdependent parts and systems that must all work together perfectly. Even small changes to one system can significantly impact another seemingly unrelated system. For example, engineers must ensure that humans will be able to tolerate...

In the 18 months since NASA accepted a bold challenge to accelerate its exploration plans by more than four years and establish sustainable exploration by the end of the decade, the agency has continued to gain momentum toward sending humans to the Moon again for the first time since the last...
NASA says there was a challenge in measuring the comet’s nucleus because it was too far away for the Hubble telescope to determine its size. Instead, scientists had to make a computer model that was adjusted to fit the images of the comet’s bright light that they got from the telescope...
