🚀 Exciting Lunar Exploration Update 🌕

A private company, Intuitive Machines, is set to launch a new lunar module, μNova, by the end of this year. This innovative 35 kg module is equipped with dual cameras, a radiometer (LRAD), and a neutron spectrometer (PLWS), all supported by an autonomous navigation system. μNova is designed for precise landings, capable of handling slopes up to ten degrees and low-light conditions.

The μNova’s mission will focus on geological surveys at the lunar south pole, specifically between Shackleton and de Gerlach craters. It aims to analyze hydrogen presence in the regolith, temperature differences in sunlit vs. shaded areas, and the thermal properties of the surface.

After landing, μNova will undergo system checks and perform a series of leaps—starting with a 20-meter test jump, escalating to 100 meters, and potentially reaching up to 300 meters. The mission includes up to 5-6 jumps, exploring the rim and the permanently shadowed regions of Marston crater.

Stay tuned with @science for updates on this leap towards new lunar discoveries! 🌌
