Share Visitors gawk at Chang’e-5 lunar samples on display at the National Museum of China in Beijing. TINGSHU WANG/REUTERS China’s premier astronomy and planetary resources lure foreign collaborators Apr. 1, 2021 , 11:15 AM For a generation, China played scientific catch-up to more advanced nations, but the tables are turning. China has the world’s largest radio telescope and the first Moon rocks in 45 years. Now, it is offering foreign researchers access to those scientific treasures. Many are eager, but others are uneasy about what they see as collaborating with an authoritarian regime. In December 2020, the Chang’e-5 mission returned 1.7 kilograms of rock and soil from the Moon the first lunar samples since 1976, and a chance for researchers to obtain dates that could help unravel Solar System history. On 18 January, the China National Space Administration (CNSA) confirmed it would encourage “joint international research” on the sampl ....
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. ....

March 5, 2021 SHARE The ordinary atoms that make up the known universe from our bodies and the air we breathe to the planets and stars constitute only 5% of all matter and energy in the cosmos. The remaining 95% is made up of a recipe of 25% dark matter and 70% dark energy, both nonluminous components whose nature remains a mystery. Theoretical physicist Katherine Freese, the Jeff and Gail Kodosky Endowed Chair in Physics at the University of Texas at Austin, will explore dark matter in the 2021 McDonnell Distinguished Lecture at Washington University in St. Louis. Freese (Photo: Marica Rosengard) Freese’s online lecture, “The Dark Side of the Universe,” will begin at 7 p.m. Thursday, March 25. The event is free and open to the public; attendees should register in advance to obtain the Zoom link. ....
