Most recreational vehicles (RVs) are limited by weight restrictions when it comes to installing luxurious amenities, while spacecraft RVs offer unlimited possibilities – beginning from scratch and custom-building a home on wheels that fits exactly with its owner’s desires. Spacecraft trailers feature standard features like easy-to-clean fiberglass ceilings and front kitchens in fifth wheel trailers,…
Spacecraft in orbit serve as our entryway into our solar system, galaxy and beyond. They carry instruments ranging from cameras and telescopes to radar and spectrometers – offering access to information in multiple dimensions. To achieve orbit, a rocket must travel high above most of Earth’s atmosphere in an elliptical path around our planet –…
Landing on the Moon requires immense amounts of energy. That energy must be carefully managed in order to achieve an efficient landing on its surface. Surveyor 1 was the inaugural spacecraft of its kind to take high-resolution photos and create a map of potential Apollo landing sites on the Moon’s far side. Controllers deliberately crashed…
Pluto and its moons hold many secrets that New Horizons discovered through Alice – its sensitive ultraviolet imaging spectrometer. Instruments have detected an atmospheric haze which could contain methane. Pluto Underground team has created a unique spacecraft designed to investigate this mystery. The Mission As New Horizons will pass Pluto this Wednesday, astronomers will finally…
Spacecrafts or spaceships are vehicles designed for interstellar travel. Spacecraft is often the standard plural, while you could also say spaceships. Spacecraft from Earth may take years before returning to Mars, which now appears cold, dry and potentially lifeless.
