NASA Solicitation: Mars Ascent Vehicle Technologies for Development

NASA's In-Space Propulsion Technology (ISPT) project has been assigned the responsibility of developing propulsion technologies needed to enable future sample return missions. In recognition of the high interest of the science community in the return of samples from Mars the ISPT project, working in conjunction with the Mars Technology Program (MTP), will be starting an effort to develop long lead and critical technologies necessary for a Mars Ascent Vehicle (MAV). NASA/GRC is hereby requesting information from potential sources for the design, development and ground or flight validation testing of technologies supporting innovative and progressive concepts applicable for the Mars Ascent Vehicle development in the near-term. Of particular interest is a MAV design/architecture or supporting technologies that reduces the system mass as comp

Mars Rover Spirit Still Alive

Toren Altair writes with this excerpt from a story at The Space Fellowship: "NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Spirit communicated via the Mars Odyssey orbiter today right at the time when ground controllers had told it to, prompting shouts of 'She's talking!' among the rover team at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. 'This means Spirit has not gone into a fault condition and is still being controlled by sequences we send from the ground,' said John Callas of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., project manager for Spirit and its twin, Opportunity."

Source Of Geysers On Saturn's Moon Enceladus May Be Underground Water

Scientists at Jet Propulsion Lab in California, the University of Colorado and the University of Central Florida in Orlando teamed up to analyze the plumes of water vapor and ice particles spewing from the moon. They used data collected by the Cassini spacecraft's Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph (UVIS). Cassini was launched from the Kennedy Space Center in 1997 and has been orbiting Saturn since July 2004.

SPACENASA Tests New Deep Space Cyber-Net

NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has tested a communications network that facilitates data communication over millions of miles. They're calling it the "Interplanetary Internet," though it's based on technology that differs from the Web's standard TCP/IP method. Earthbound Net traffic presumes connections will remain constant, but in space, connection interruptions must be expected.
