After many decades, the moon is once again at the center of science. NASA plans to send an unmanned probe to the satellite on Monday. You can be there at the Technical Museum in Vienna.
At exactly 2:22 p.m. our time, the US space agency NASA will launch Monday’s “Artemis” mission (named after the goddess of the hunt and the moon) at a place steeped in history – the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. In the Vienna Technical Museum, interested parties can follow the launch of the “Artemis” live via the public. Keynote speeches and discussions with space experts await from 1.30 pm. They offer a behind-the-scenes look and first-hand information.
Technology from Austria is on board
Technology from Austria is also on board the probe! Because the Austrian companies TTTech and Magna provide key components for the communication and navigation network of the Artemis program and tank print lines for the new SLS (Space Launch System) – the largest and most powerful launch vehicle currently in use. The European Space Agency (ESA) is also involved in the international mission and is building the ESM supply module for the Orion space capsule for Artemis.
This time, the spaceship flies unmanned towards Earth’s satellites. If all goes according to plan, new missions are on the way: Two NASA astronauts should land on the moon in 2025. “From 2025 to 2030, we Europeans will be there,” confirms Josef Aschbacher, Director General of the European Space Agency.
Participation in the public viewing is free, you only have to pay the entrance fee to the museum.
