NASA's Barge Pegasus Delivers SLS Hardware to Marshall for Testing

A structural test version of the intertank for NASA's new deep-space rocket, the Space Launch System, arrived at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center this week. The intertank is the second piece of structural test hardware for the massive SLS core stage built at NASA's Michoud Assembly Facility delivered to Marshall for testing.


 

Space Station Crew Performs Upkeep and Science as Ground Crew Trains for Launch

The three orbiting Expedition 55 crew members focused on maintenance of the International Space Station while studying Earth and biomedical sciences this week. Meanwhile, a new set of station crewmates -- including NASA astronauts Ricky Arnold and Drew Feustel -- arrived in Kazakhstan for final training before launching to station.


 

Scientists Share Ideas for Gateway Activities Near the Moon

As NASA develops how the Lunar Orbital Platform-Gateway will support both robotic and human exploration in deep space, the agency has fielded suggestions from the global science community how to leverage the gateway to advance scientific discoveries in a wide range of fields. NASA’s Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft are the backbone of the agency’s future in deep space.


 

NASA Juno Findings -- Jupiter’s Jet-Streams Are Unearthly

Data collected by NASA’s Juno mission to Jupiter indicate that the atmospheric winds of the gas giant run deep into its atmosphere and last longer than similar atmospheric processes found on Earth. The findings will improve understanding of Jupiter’s interior structure, core mass and, eventually, its origin.
