Equipped with onboard AI, LiDAR, and hyperspectral imaging, the platform aims to deliver near real-time intelligence on lunar terrain and environmental conditions without ground-based dependency.
Designed for both government and commercial missions, Luna Moon erosion by solar wind far less than expected finds lunar rock study
Sunday, 27 July 2025 07:04
The Moon's fragile exosphere, a sparse envelope of gas surrounding the lunar body, is mainly generated by interactions between the Moon's surface and external forces. Until now, scientists believed the solar wind played a major role in this process. But new research led by Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien) challenges that assumption.
