RaMoon is the beauty of Tri. The poet and storyteller longs to describe the crescent and circle in his lines. The moon and the lunar surface are always fascinating to scientists. Shatraloka describes the Moon as a natural satellite of the Earth. There are so many things on the moon that you can’t finish even if you study and study. The vast majority of Earth’s inhabitants are not concerned with it. How many kilometers is the moon from the earth? 3,84,403 km to be exact. Da now hears that NASA is planning to mine the moon. The plan is to deliver mined lunar soil and rock to Earth. NASA is the American space agency. The United States announced that the project will be implemented within the next ten years. It remains to be seen whether there will be a dispute over the rights of the moon within the next ten years. Especially at a time when the capitalist world is injecting the poison of anger, hatred and hatred into national governments.
American mission through NASA
The United States through NASA plans to mine resources from the moon. In 2032, as part of the project, the goal is to mine soil from the moon and bring it to Earth. There is also a plan to mine the lunar soil and set up a processing plant on the lunar surface. For that, NASA will send a test drill into space. It seeks to invest and understand resources at the exploration stage. As part of the project, many challenges will be faced during the development and production phase, The Guardian reported, quoting Gerald Sanders, a rocket scientist at NASA’s Johnson Space, at a conference in Brisbane.
Their plan is to dig into the surface of the moon. The first customers will be commercial rocket companies. says Gerald Sanders, a rocket scientist at NASA’s Johnson Space. Gerald also stated that the rocket company will use the moon’s surface as fuel or oxygen.
Why mining? how
An article published on the Archyde.com website in 2015 described why there are plans to mine the moon and how the “lunar gold rush” would work. Surveys conducted by the space agency have found that the moon contains water, helium and rare earth metals. The scientific world is hoping that using the elements found in high levels in the rocks on the moon will make a big leap in the field of development in the near future. Water can be used for fuel in rockets. NASA says that helium can be used for energy developments such as nuclear fusion.
Rare earth metals found on the lunar surface, such as scandium and yttrium, have also been found to be useful in the field of modern electronics. The mass of the moon is 73 quintal tons of elements and elements. The report says that if one metric ton is mined each day, only 1 percent would be subtracted from the Moon’s mass even following 220 million years of mining.
And those who believe the moonwalk was an American hoax
There are those who still believe that humans have not landed on the moon even though NASA has planned for mining. They are propagating that the lunar mission is only a drama of America. These people argue that the images of the lunar surface are fake. The shadow falling on the moon and the fluttering of the flag in the picture led to suspicion. It is also said that landing a man on the moon is the way America saw to defeat Russia. As part of the Cold War, there was a fierce rivalry between the United States and Russia. America’s first space missions were all failures. The Sputnik crisis was described as the launch of the small probe Sputnik and the failure of the first two launches of the American mission Project Vanguard. After this, the United States begins the mission of sending a man to the moon.
It can be said that NASA made its eleventh mission, Apollo 11, a success with limited experience. But no more information is available regarding the previous ten missions. Apollo faced a heavy setback in its first mission in 1967. All three passengers died of suffocation. A month before the flight, the passengers were practicing their flight with the help of a simulator when the accident took place. At the request of the wives of the Apollo astronauts, the mission, which did not take place at the time, was retained as the Apollo-1 mission.
Thus, each Apollo mission has a story to tell that not many people know regarding. Passengers on the last three missions had walked on the lunar surface and even traveled by vehicle. They drove a special type of vehicle called Lunar Roving Vehicle on the moon. They collected more than 380 kg of samples from the lunar surface and brought them back to Earth. They are still preserved in many museums. After completing 17 missions, the United States canceled missions 18, 19 and 20. In 1972 America’s competition with Russia might be said to have ended. Later, the world saw the sight of both countries participating in space missions together.
Artemis 2 mission
Years later, NASA has announced that it has selected four people for its Artemis 2 mission. Three people from NASA and one from the Canadian Space Agency are set to travel. Flight engineer (NASA) Christina Kutch is the only woman in the team. The mission is commanded by NASA’s Reid Wiseman. Pilot Victor Glover (NASA) and Jeremy Hansen (Canada) are the others. Administrator Bill Nelson announced the mission members at NASA’s Johnson Space Center.
This journey to the moon comes in the wake of the successful completion of the unmanned first phase mission. He said that this was the beginning of man’s journey from the moon to Mars and from there to other great journeys. Out of more than fifty people who were trained, four people were selected for this journey following half a century. Artemis-1’s unmanned Orion returned to the Pacific Ocean in December 2022 following completing a 25-day mission. Meanwhile, the Artemis 2 mission is scheduled for November 2024. The astronauts will return following reaching the moon’s orbit. The journey from the lunar surface to the moon, which is 400,000 kilometers away, and back takes ten days. But they don’t land on the lunar surface instead they circle the moon and come back. NASA’s goal is to land humans on the Moon’s south pole in 2025 with the Artemis III mission. The purpose of the Artemis mission is to establish human colonies on the Moon.
Apollo 11 mission
Humans first set foot on the moon on July 21, 1969. Until then, NASA had only been able to orbit the moon during the Apollo missions. Only six missions landed humans on the moon. And one mission ended in disaster. Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins traveled in Apollo 11. The team traveled on a Saturn 5 rocket. The command/service module on the top of the Saturn 5 and the lunar module on the bottom are arranged as spacecraft. The rocket has a weight of 5,2,970,000 kg and a height of 116 meters. The lunar lander is the Lunar Module named Eagle. After the Apollo 11 mission up to Apollo 17, 12 men have landed on the moon. Many experiments were carried out on the surface of the moon and 380 kg of lunar rock was brought to earth. The last Apollo mission was in 1972.
India discovered water on the moon
Chandrayaan 2 orbiter launched by ISRO also detected the presence of water on the lunar surface.
Scientists say that water is formed through chemical reactions caused by the solar wind. The presence of water was detected by infrared spectrometer. This spectrometer was built by ISRO’s Space Application Center in Ahmedabad. Chandrayaan 2 was launched on July 22, 2019. Earlier, the M3 instrument of the first mission launched also detected the presence of water and hydroxyl in the polar regions and illuminated regions of the Moon. This device was built by NASA.
Chandrayaan-2 had discovered that the moon has a large amount of sodium. The discovery was made by the Chandrayaan-2 orbiter’s X-ray spectrometer, Clas. On October 22, 2008, the X-ray-fluorescence spectrometer Chandrayaan-1, launched from Sriharikota, detected the presence of sodium on the Moon. In 2009, NASA also confirmed the presence of water on the moon. 40 years ago, scientists who examined rocks brought back from the moon by the Apollo missions were the first to suggest that there is water on the moon. But scientists might not confirm this. It is at such a stage that NASA is preparing for mining on the moon.
