The move could reshape how aerospace observations are studied by scientists, engineers, and the public. Blue Origin Endurance lunar tests - Blue Origin’s Blue Moon MK1 “Endurance” completes key vacuum chamber testing at NASA Johnson, validating precision landing, cryogenic propulsion, and autonomous navigation. The milestone strengthens commercial lunar cargo plans and lays groundwork for eventual crew-capable landers. NASA targets 2028 Moon landings - NASA reaffirms an accelerated Artemis schedule aiming for crewed lunar surface missions beginning in 2028, with a higher mission cadence and flexible lander options. Artemis 2’s successful crewed lunar flyby return in April 2026 strengthens confidence in Orion’s deep-space readiness. Roman Telescope finds hidden neutron stars - New studies indicate NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will detect isolated, otherwise invisible neutron stars using astrometric microlensing. By measuring tiny position shifts and brightness changes, Roman could directly constrain neutron star masses and the physics of ultra-dense matter. Gravitational waves reveal merger-built black hole…
