Description:
Launching next: PREFIRE<br/><br/>The twin satellites of this mission, launching on separate rockets, will help improve climate models by measuring the amount of heat lost to space from Earth’s polar regions.<br/><br/>The mission starts with Earth’s energy budget. The amount of heat energy the planet receives from the Sun should ideally be offset by the amount it radiates into space. The difference between incoming and outgoing energy determines Earth’s temperature and shapes our climate.<br/><br/>Polar regions play a key role in the process, acting like Earth’s radiator fins. The stirring of air and water, through weather and ocean currents, moves heat energy received in the tropics toward the poles, where it is emitted as thermal infrared radiation – the same type of energy you feel from a heat lamp. Some 60% of that energy flows out to space in far-infrared wavelengths that have never been systematically measured.<br/><br/>PREFIRE can help close that knowledge gap. The first of two launches is scheduled for no earlier than May 25 from New Zealand. Tune in to watch the live broadcast: https://www.rocketlabusa.com/live-stream

They were supposed to return nearly a month earlier, but were delayed by the crash of an uncrewed Russian cargo ship. During their time aboard the station, Virts, Shkaplerov, and Cristoforetti conducted hundreds of science experiments, oversaw the arrival and departure of cargo vehicles, and assisted with the relocation of the station's supply module, called Leonardo. Virts also conducted three spacewalks to route the cables for a new adapter that would allow future Boeing and SpaceX commercial crew spacecraft to dock with the laboratory.")

Only about 1.2% the mass of Earth, our planet's companion exerts a much weaker gravitational force on objects on its surface than the parent planet. As a result, an astronaut on the moon's surface feels as if he or she only weighs one sixth of their earthly weight. The same goes for all equipment the astronauts would use. It may sound like no big deal but this feeble gravitational pull creates all sorts of unforeseen problems that are difficult to prepare for in research labs on Earth. There is, however, one way to experience lunar gravity while still in the confines of Earth and explore these challenges before going to the moon: in a parabolic flight.<br/><br/>Credit: Space.com | footage courtesy: European Space Agency/Novespace/NASA<br/>A Future Studios Production")
