SUMMARY:Space drones round trips to the moon: how are they possible?
DESCRIPTION:A science and technology presentation by the founder and CEO of Gaseous electronics LLC (www.gaselco.com). Riyadh\, Saudi Arabia.———AbstractThis presentation assesses the technical viability of a multi-stage propulsion concept for a 15-meter drone undertaking a lunar mission. The proposed architecture sequentially employs solid fuel for Low Earth Orbit (LEO) insertion\, an air-breathing engine for LEO-to-vacuum transition\, and a vacuum-optimized plasma thruster for trans-lunar cruise. Analysis indicates that while solid fuel propulsion is a mature and feasible solution for initial LEO insertion\, capable of delivering drone-scale payloads (e.g.\, 4-500 kg) \, the subsequent air-breathing engine stage presents a critical functional mismatch. Current Air-Breathing Electric Propulsion (ABEP) systems are designed for milli-Newton thrust levels (e.g.\, 6 mN) to compensate for atmospheric drag in Very Low Earth Orbit (VLEO) (120-250 km altitude)\, not to provide the substantial delta-V (3.2-3.6 km/s)  required for a rapid “kick” into vacuum or Trans-Lunar Injection (TLI). This inherent low-thrust characteristic renders ABEP unsuitable for orbital escape maneuvers. Conversely\, vacuum-optimized plasma thrusters (e.g.\, Ion\, Hall Effect\, VASIMR) are highly efficient for long-duration trans-lunar cruising\, achieving high specific impulse (2\,000-12\,000 s) with low thrust (mN to few N)\, leading to travel times of several months. However\, these systems demand continuous\, high-power electrical input (kW to MW range)\, necessitating significant advancements in compact\, high-power density energy sources and robust thermal management systems for drone integration. The overall concept’s viability is currently limited by the fundamental inability of proposed plasma technologies to provide high impulsive thrust for orbital escape and the substantial mass/complexity of required power infrastructure.

The Husky Satellite Lab is providing students with the opportunity to collaborate with industry mentors\, developing bleeding-edge technology\, and partaking in one of the grandest engineering challenges of a Lunar mission that is planned to launch in the 2030s. Ultimately\, one of the primary goals of the Husky Satellite Lab is to empower interplanetary exploration on a CubeSat level.Currently\, HSL is working on HuskySat-2 (HS-2)\, a 3U Low Earth Orbiter meant to investigate the performance of our in-house and open-source Star Tracker and Horizon Tracker systems nicknamed LOST  (Lost Open-source Star Tracker) & FOUND (FOund Universal Orbital Navigation Determiner). The objective of HS-2 is to eliminate reliance on GPS or other external infrastructures for orbital navigation. With a successful demonstration of LOST & FOUND\, the HSL hopes to further enhance interplanetary exploration capabilities of future CubeSats. \n\n\n\nOur next mission\, HuskySat-3 (HS-3) is amongst one of the most novel uptakings in CubeSat development. HS-3\, set to launch in the 2030s\, will be a Lunar orbiter with the objective of mapping Subsurface Lunar Lava Tubes using a Ground Penetrating Radar within the Lunar Maria regions. These underground lava tubes are extremely promising candidates for long-term human habitation zones as they provide protection from natural phenomenon such as meteorites and radiation\, as well as provide a stable temperature environment. Onboard HS-3 will be some of the most groundbreaking CubeSat technology to ensure mission success and longevity. The success of HS-3 not only shines light on the viability of long-term human settlements on the moon but also will carve the path for a CubeSat level exploration of our beloved moon.  \n\n\n\nFurthermore\, the HSL collaborates with various partners such as Blue Origin\, Apex Space\, and many more for many different developments and projects. Currently\, the HSL is undertaking a mission in partnership with Blue Origin and our local community for a suborbital payload nicknamed CHNOOK.

The Husky Satellite Lab is providing students with the opportunity to collaborate with industry mentors\, developing bleeding-edge technology\, and partaking in one of the grandest engineering challenges of a Lunar mission that is planned to launch in the 2030s. Ultimately\, one of the primary goals of the Husky Satellite Lab is to empower interplanetary exploration on a CubeSat level.Currently\, HSL is working on HuskySat-2 (HS-2)\, a 3U Low Earth Orbiter meant to investigate the performance of our in-house and open-source Star Tracker and Horizon Tracker systems nicknamed LOST  (Lost Open-source Star Tracker) & FOUND (FOund Universal Orbital Navigation Determiner). The objective of HS-2 is to eliminate reliance on GPS or other external infrastructures for orbital navigation. With a successful demonstration of LOST & FOUND\, the HSL hopes to further enhance interplanetary exploration capabilities of future CubeSats. \n\n\n\nOur next mission\, HuskySat-3 (HS-3) is amongst one of the most novel uptakings in CubeSat development. HS-3\, set to launch in the 2030s\, will be a Lunar orbiter with the objective of mapping Subsurface Lunar Lava Tubes using a Ground Penetrating Radar within the Lunar Maria regions. These underground lava tubes are extremely promising candidates for long-term human habitation zones as they provide protection from natural phenomenon such as meteorites and radiation\, as well as provide a stable temperature environment. Onboard HS-3 will be some of the most groundbreaking CubeSat technology to ensure mission success and longevity. The success of HS-3 not only shines light on the viability of long-term human settlements on the moon but also will carve the path for a CubeSat level exploration of our beloved moon.  \n\n\n\nFurthermore\, the HSL collaborates with various partners such as Blue Origin\, Apex Space\, and many more for many different developments and projects. Currently\, the HSL is undertaking a mission in partnership with Blue Origin and our local community for a suborbital payload nicknamed CHNOOK. CHNOOK will deliver a flashdrive of artwork and meaningful messages that comes from K-College schools in the Washington area into space as well as continue HSL’s impact on interplanetary exploration by investigating the effects of launch and microgravity environments on a DNA nanostructure (“origami”) which have the potential to make future astronaut drug administration much more efficient. \n\n\n\nBy merging education with celebrating peaceful affairs in Lunar research at the University of Washington by HSL\, the HSL hopes to achieve a peaceful mission meant to benefit all international space companies and institutions. Additionally\, the HSL strives to further collaboration with international partners throughout the development of HS-3. Our vision is to advance scientific exploration on the Moon to unite industries across the globe for a collective goal of shared success. \n\n\n\nClub Promotion Video

SUMMARY:International Moon Day – Brazil
DESCRIPTION:Our world is plural and diverse: multiple cultures\, backgrounds\, beliefs\, needs\, and aspirations. \nOn any given topic\, many perspectives may emerge. Space exploration is no exception to this rule. But when we consider sharing an environment\, it is essential that we agree\, at least\, on the path we will walk together. So it will be with lunar exploration. \nTherefore\, to build a sustainable and prosperous presence on the Moon\, with a shared vision\, we must listen to the broadest range of voices and sectors. \nTo inhabit the Moon\, we should not look outward\, but inward—at ourselves. Who we are\, what we need to do\, and how we will act as a social group beyond Earth. \nThis is the key to an internationally inclusive lunar future. And this is the purpose of our event: to listen\, to understand\, and to collaborate so that together we may have One Moon\, One Vision\, and One Future. \n\n\nStream on Youtube\n\n\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUFAGKJMFJg

SUMMARY:Internationnal MoonDay Connection from ExoSpaceHab Express Moon Base
DESCRIPTION:We performed a moonbase simulation in July and August and on 21th of July our crew commander Pauline ROBLIN will adress collaborators from moon village worldwide\, including with Nanjing Aerospace University and ILEWG. \nThe ExoSpaceHab Express project recreates a small lunar base\, within which it is possible to conduct simulations of space missions with a crew of maximum 4 people. The lunar base houses all the typical areas of the future bases that we could see on the Moon (and in perspective on Mars!): a living area (which includes a small living space\, the personal crew districts and toilets)\, a laboratory area (where to carry out scientific experiments and use the instruments)\, large storage areas for resources\, an area dedicated to sports (since astronauts are required to practice sports for about two hours a day to maintain health in a small area. 

At a structural level\, the lunar base consists of an area recreated inside a Weinsberg caravan\, which has been totally transformed\, and an inflatable area\, which “embraces” the caravan externally and which doubles its useful volume internally.
