THE MOON

China's Chang'e-4 lunar probe was launched in the early hours of Saturday morning. On Sunday, technicians on the ground conducted a second alteration of the probe's course on its way to the Moon to confirm that the craft is functioning properly. The next maneuver will put the probe into orbit around the Moon. After that, the Chang'e-4 should make the first-ever soft landing on the far side of the Moon.

China has launched a lunar probe that is heading toward the far side of the moon. The ambitious plan, a first in moon exploration, would send the probe on a mission to explore the surface facing away from Earth. The far side is believed to have a thicker crust and is pockmarked by relatively more and deeper craters than the near side. If successful, the Chang-e 4 will unlock valuable clues to the mysteries about the moon and the universe.

China successfully launched the Chang'e-4 lunar probe aboard a Long March 3B rocket at 2:23 a.m. BJT on December 8. With a lander and rover, its key mission is to explore the far side of the Moon, a side not visible from the Earth.

According to geek.com, the key to building a moon base could be right under astronaut's noses. Moon Dust might prove to be the future of building on the Earth's lunar companion. Building materials can get heavy, and complicate space travel. Which is why scientists are considering ways to utilize regolith (aka rocky lunar dust). The dust could be used to fashion the first long-term settlements on the moon. The European Space Agency is looking into “lunar masonry.” This process would 3-D print building blocks and stone walls using processed lunar soil. “The moon and Earth share a common geological history, and it is not difficult to find material similar to that found on the moon in the remnants of lava flows.” Aidan Cowley, ESA Science Adviser https://www.geek.com/news/moon-dust-may-be-key-to-building-a-moon-base-quickly-1750577/?source http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit Tech using http://wochit.com

Rabbits and hares, frogs and toads, Hawaiian princess, thieves and criminals – throughout time and across cultures people have looked to the moon and imagined who lives there… Even astronomers themselves have been certain that they glimpsed cities being built by an alien race as they gazed through telescopes upon the ridges and craters of the lunar surface. Helen Avery will be sharing some of the legends and wild imaginings of who and what lived on our only satellite…

NASA said on Monday, "a team of scientists has directly observed definitive evidence of water ice on the Moon’s surface."

It's possible that the moon might have been able to support life billions of years ago, and scientists are using meteorites to learn about the history of our sun.

On July 31, 1971, Apollo 15 astronauts drove on the moon for the first time. David Scott, the commander of Apollo 15, and James Irwin, the lunar module pilot explored the moon for three days by driving around in the lunar roving vehicle. This moon buggy was folded up and stowed inside the lunar module and deployed after landing. Unpacked, it measured about 10 feet long, 7 feet wide and 45 inches high. It could travel up to 8.6 miles per hour and allowed the astronauts to venture farther from their landing site than previous Apollo astronauts could. For their first drive, Scott and Irwin went to Elbow Crater to gather samples and take photos. Throughout their stay on the moon, they drove more than 17 miles.

Cory is perfectly positioned in South Africa for a great view of the Moon throughout the entire lunar eclipse. We'll also be joined by other special guests to talk all things space and astronomy, to enjoy this spectacle together.

The longest lunar eclipse of the century so far will take place across Friday night and Saturday morning, as the moon is totally eclipsed by the Earth for one hour and 43 minutes. During this time, people around the world will be able to see a “blood moon”, as the Earth’s satellite turns red Subscribe to Guardian News on YouTube ► http://bit.ly/guardianwiressub • Blood moon 2018: lunar eclipse - as it happened ► https://www.theguardian.com/science/live/2018/jul/27/blood-moon-2018-follow-lunar-eclipse-live Support the Guardian ► https://theguardian.com/supportus The Guardian ► https://www.theguardian.com The Guardian YouTube network: The Guardian ► www.youtube.com/theguardian Owen Jones talks ► http://bit.ly/subsowenjones Guardian Football ► http://is.gd/guardianfootball Guardian Sport ► http://bit.ly/GDNsport Guardian Culture ► http://is.gd/guardianculture Guardian Science and Tech ► http://is.gd/guardiantech

A lunar eclipse will be visible over much of the Earth on July 27, 2018. At least part of the eclipse will be visible in all major land areas except North and Central America, with totality visible in the the Middle East, India, parts of central Asia and eastern and southern Africa. The eclipse will start 1:14 p.m. EDT (17:14 Universal Time, or UTC), with the moon fully eclipsed between 3:30 p.m. and 5:13 p.m. EDT (19:30 and 21:13 UTC). It will end at 7:28 p.m. EDT (23:28 UTC). A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes through the Earth's shadow on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun. Why is it called a Blood Moon? 🔴Blood Moon = The red tint Earth’s shadow casts on the Moon during a lunar eclipse ************************************************************** Learn more about our weather balloon flights, data & videos at: http://overlookhorizon.com To learn more about our Arduino based flight computer, APRS transmitter, RTTY radio transmitter, ham radio balloon tracking methods or any of our other onboard technology and data sensors; visit http://overlookhorizon.com OUR FLIGHT SYSTEMS: Styrofoam Cooler: http://amzn.to/2pLYNkz Arduino MEGA: http://amzn.to/2pMh3KC Lightdow LD4000 Action Camera: http://amzn.to/2qFlsNu Rocketman Parachute: http://amzn.to/2pecXrx Adafruit PowerBoost: http://amzn.to/2q4v2fL uBlox Neo 6M GPS: http://amzn.to/2pMfUm1 DS18b20 Temperature Sensor: http://amzn.to/2qK4goZ Data Logging Shield: http://amzn.to/2pengvC BMP180 Pressure Sensor: http://amzn.to/2pLcSMW Piezo Speaker Alarm: http://amzn.to/2q4AEXb Orbtronics 18650 Lithium Ion Batteries: http://amzn.to/2pLD4XW Radar Reflector: http://amzn.to/2fmY7il Please Donate!

The longest "blood moon" eclipse in this century will coincide with Mars' closest approach to Earth in 15 years to offer skygazers a thrilling astronomical double bill on Friday, astronomers say. For about half the world, the moon will be partly or fully in Earth's shadow from 1:14 p.m. to 7:28 p.m. ET — six hours and 14 minutes in all. The period of complete eclipse — known as "totality," when the moon appears darkest — will last from 3:30 p.m. to 5:13 p.m. ET. "Totality will last for 103 minutes, making it the longest eclipse of the 21st century!" said the Royal Astronomical Society in London.

A study published July 23 in the journal Astrobiology said there was a time when the moon had the right conditions to support life.

If the moon is in Earth's shadow during a lunar eclipse, how can we still see it? And why does it turn red? The answer has to do with our own terrestrial sunrises and sunsets.

When the moon turned red thousands of year ago, the ancient Mayans and Mesopotamians feared that something monstrous and evil was eating the moon. They would shout at the night sky to try and fend off the ravenous beasts. And since the average lunar eclipse lasts around 100 minutes, when the moon returns to normal afterward, they were probably convinced that their whooping and howling actually worked. We know now that the moon doesn't need our protection. But why does it turn red in the first place? Whenever you look up at a full moon, you're seeing sunlight that's reflected off the lunar surface. So if something were to block that sunlight, say the earth, then, in theory, the moon should disappear from view. But during a total lunar eclipse, when the moon passes through the earth's shadow, we get a red moon, not a vanishing one. So what's going on? To figure it out, let's take a quick trip to the lunar surface. This is a NASA simulation of what the earth looks like during a total lunar eclipse. Notice the red ring around our planet. Everywhere you see that ring is either a sunrise or a sunset. And while it's true that no direct sunlight is reaching the lunar surface at this moment, earth's atmosphere is bending the red wavelengths of light around the planet. So that redness you see during a blood moon eclipse is a combination of light from every sunrise and sunset on earth, all happening at once. So, the moon appears red for the same reason that sunrises and sunsets on earth are red, because of a phenomenon called Rayleigh Scattering, named after the British physicist John William Strutt, also known as Lord Rayleigh, who discovered it in the late 19th century. It describes how different colors of sunlight interact with the earth's atmosphere. Look at the sky during daytime, for example. It appears blue because air molecules in earth's atmosphere scatter blue light more easily than red. But during sunrise and sunset, the light travels through more of earth's atmosphere before reaching your eye, which has two consequences. First, it means more overall sunlight is scattered, making the sun appear dimmer. That's why you can easily gaze upon the sun at sunset, compared to at high noon. And secondly, more scattering means more blue light is scattered away, leaving the redder wavelengths behind. Similarly, the ring around earth during a total lunar eclipse is red because the sunlight travels through a long stretch of earth's atmosphere, from one end of the planet to the other. So, rather than fear a blood moon like the ancient Mayans and Mesopotamians, why not think of it as a romantic moment. After all, it's the only time when you can see the sunrise and sunset simultaneously.

On Friday 27 July the longest lunar eclipse of the century (so far) will take place. Also known as a blood moon, this occurs when the sun, Earth and moon align perfectly, putting the moon in the Earth's shadow. The moon will be totally eclipsed by the Earth for one hour and 43 minutes. The red colouring is a result of sunlight refracting through the Earth's atmosphere Subscribe to Guardian News on YouTube ► http://bit.ly/guardianwiressub • Starwatch: red marvel that is a lunar eclipse ► https://www.theguardian.com/science/2018/jul/22/starwatch-red-marvel-that-is-a-lunar-eclipse Support the Guardian ► https://theguardian.com/supportus The Guardian ► https://www.theguardian.com The Guardian YouTube network: The Guardian ► www.youtube.com/theguardian Owen Jones talks ► http://bit.ly/subsowenjones Guardian Football ► http://is.gd/guardianfootball Guardian Sport ► http://bit.ly/GDNsport Guardian Culture ► http://is.gd/guardianculture Guardian Science and Tech ► http://is.gd/guardiantech

There's going to be a blood moon on Friday, July 27. According to Forbes, the effect is caused by the indirect light from the sun bouncing through the Earth’s atmosphere. You don’t need a telescope or special glasses to witness this eclipse, says Lifehacker. The bad news is that you still have to be in the right part of Earth to see it. People in Australia, Asia, Africa, South America and Europe are in the right quadrants. Unfortunately, folks in North America won't be able to see it. https://lifehacker.com/how-to-get-a-good-look-at-the-upcoming-blood-moon-1827838369 http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com

The Moon doesn’t appear to have what it takes to support life now, but researchers suggest that wasn’t always the case.

It's entirely possible to measure the distance to the moon using regular everyday cameras. Observers stationed a long distance apart can work in pairs to take images of the moon and surrounding stars. These photos will show slight differences in the location of the moon on the sky, and knowing the baseline the distance to the moon can be calculated. It's even possible to approximate the distance to the moon just by a single observer able to take high resolution images of the moon and measuring the change in observed size of the disc. Also, while I don't demo this technique it's possible to look at how the motion of the moon across the sky speeds up and slows down due to the rotation of the observer with the earth, but that requires a lot more data points. Measuring the baseline actually turns out to be the most complicated chunk of math here, I might make a separate video on that, but I need spreadsheets first.

On July 13, 1969, the Soviet Union launched its Luna 15 spacecraft on a mission to the moon. Luna 15 was a robotic sample return mission sent to retrieve some lunar soil and bring it back to Earth. It launched just three days before Apollo 11, which brought the first astronauts to the lunar surface. Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin beat actually Luna 15 to the moon by about 20 hours. Talk about a space race! Just a few minutes after the Soviet spacecraft began its descent on July 21, it unexpectedly crashed into a mountain and stopped transmitting data back to mission control.

In an age in which the high-profile space stories and competition typically involve companies like SpaceX, Boeing, and others, it’s easy to forget that it used to feel like more of a national rivalry — summoning memories of the U.S. and Soviet Union from the height of the Space Race. Israel, which announced its intentions to be the fourth country to land a mission on the moon — after the U.S., Russia, and China. With this goal in mind, it’s planning to launch an unmanned spacecraft in December as a collaboration between Israel Aerospace Industries and the nonprofit organization SpaceIL. https://www.digitaltrends.com/cool-tech/israel-proposed-moon-landing/ http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com

Laura Cicco, a resident of Kansas, is preemptively suing NASA over moon dust. Cicco claims she was given a vial moondust from Neil Armstrong. She is suing NASA so that they don't have the capability of seizing the artifact from her. Cicco even has a signed personal note from Armstrong reading: "To Laura Ann Murray - Best of Luck - Neil Armstrong, Apollo 11." NASA has yet to comment on the case, saying that it would be inappropriate to do so at this time. https://www.geek.com/science/woman-sues-nasa-for-possession-of-moon-dust-gifted-by-neil-armstrong-1742992/?source http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com

Suing for the moon! Gizmodo reports that Laura Murray Cicco filed a lawsuit against NASA last week. The lawsuit was preemptively filed against the agency … … to keep it from trying to seize the lunar moment NASA in the past has seized such items. The object in question is a vial of moon dust, gifted to Cicco by Neil Armstrong in the 70’s in an interview with the Washington Post, Cicco’s attorney Christopher McHugh says: Laura was rightfully given this stuff by Neil Armstrong, so it’s hers and we just want to establish that legally, McHugh hasn’t heard from NASA yet NASA has 60 days to respond. https://gizmodo.com/woman-sues-nasa-so-she-can-keep-her-vial-of-moon-dust-f-1826764287 http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com

According to a report by Geek.com, scientists now believe that they have solved a 40 year-old mystery that has lingered since NASA's third human space flight program, the Apollo missions. A team of researchers recovered and restored major portions of the previously unarchived data from the program which ran from January 1975 to September 1977. In a paper published by the American Geophysical Union’s Journal of Geophysical Research, scientists now suggest that by walking and drivingon the Moon’s surface, astronauts destroyed its celestial equilibrium. Causing the satellite to reflect less of the Sun’s light back out to space, raising its temperature 1-2 degrees Celsius https://www.geek.com/science/lost-moon-tapes-help-solve-decades-old-lunar-mystery-1742864/?source http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com

SpaceX has officially said that it will need more time before it’s first moon mission. SpaceX had originally planned to send a pair of tourists around the moon. According to the Wall Street Journal, the company wants to slow down their plans. The trip was scheduled for later this year, but the company won’t be able to meet that timeline. This is pretty common for SpaceX, which struggles frequently to meet deadlines. The company hasn't provided a new timeline yet on when the trip could be taking place. https://www.geek.com/science/spacex-delays-its-inaugural-moon-mission-1742089/?source http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit Tech using http://wochit.com

NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine asked commercial companies to help get the agency back to the Moon as quickly as possible during an ‘industry day', Tuesday, May 8, 2018, held at NASA Headquarters in Washington. NASA is calling for commercial proposals for delivering instruments, experiments, and other small payloads to the surface of the Moon as early as next year. This solicitation is part of a broader Exploration Campaign that will pave the way for a human return to the Moon. This video is available for download from NASA's Image and Video Library: https://images.nasa.gov/details-NHQ_2018_0508_Administrator%20Bridenstine%20-%20We%20Are%20Going%20the%20Moon.html

Even daily communication changes when living on the moon. Without air to carry our voices, we might rely on lasers to beam our message home.

On April 23, 1962, NASA launched the Ranger 4 mission to the moon. After the first three Ranger missions failed, NASA was really happy with the successful launch of Ranger 4. But the fun didn't last long. After a picture-perfect launch on an Atlas-Agena rocket, Ranger 4 stopped transmitting telemetry data. Tracking stations picked up an empty signal from its radio transponder. Without that telemetry, mission control couldn't confirm that the spacecraft had deployed its solar panels and high-gain antenna. When they tried to send commands to its on-board computers, they got no response. They could tell from fluctuations in the radio signal that Ranger 4 had not stabilized itself like it was supposed to. Instead, it was tumbling around in space with its solar panels still tucked in to its sides. While the mission was essentially a failure at that point, Ranger 4 did become the first American spacecraft to reach the moon. It crashed into the moon's far side three days after the launch.
