Washington University to develop lunar resource utilization technology for NASA


Washington University to develop lunar resource utilization technology for NASA
Newswise Power and in-situ resources are two things humans will need as they explore deep space. How future astronauts use these commodities depends on the technology at hand. That’s why NASA is looking to U.S. universities including Washington University in St. Louis for lunar-focused research to bring about advancements in in-situ resource utilization and sustainable power solutions.
NASA announced March 8 that it has selected scientists at Washington University to build a rover-mounted drill sensor to quantify the 3D distribution of water at the moon’s south pole. A laser probe located at the bottom of the drill, capable of analyzing regolith, would quantify the amount of water and other chemicals present beneath the surface. ....

Thinking like Earthlings may have caused scientists to overlook the electrochemical effects of Martian dust storms.
On Earth, dust particles are viewed mainly in terms of their physical effects, like erosion. But, in exotic locales from Mars to Venus to Jupiter s icy moon Europa, electrical effects can affect the chemical composition of a planetary body s surface and atmosphere in a relatively short time, according to new research from Washington University in St. Louis.
This direction of scientific investigation has been largely overlooked in the past, said Alian Wang, research professor in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences in Arts & Sciences. Researchers are used to thinking inside the box based on terrestrial experience. ....
