American space company Blue Origin has signed an important test with the “New Shepard” spacecraft. On February 4, an important experiment was performed on the test flight that simulates the Moon’s gravity conditions. So, why is this test important? Details in our news…
Blue Origin managed to simulate the gravitational conditions of the Moon with the “New Shepard” spacecraft
According to Blue Origin, at 10:00 local time, the “New Shepard” spacecraft was sent to space from a launching area in the US state of Texas. In a short period of time, the driving rocket and the capsule were separated. The space capsule simulates the low gravity environment of the Moon with about 11 turns per minute using the response control system during the flight. The entire simulation test took about 2 minutes.

During launch, the spacecraft reached a height of about 104 km. After a 10 -minute flight, the capsule returned to Earth safely with the parachute system. The flight was recorded as the 29th space task of the “New Shepard” vehicle. Within the scope of the task, a total of 30 different experimental loads were moved from NASA, various research institutions and commercial companies. Most of these loads are said to be aimed at testing technologies to be used on the moon surface.

Space competition was heating: Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket was successfully launched!
Blue Origin successfully threw the New Glenn rocket. Here are the details of the launch without any problems except for a small failure …
In short, we can say that Blue Origin’s test flights are critical for future months tasks. Thanks to the tests performed, the technologies required for the base to be established on the Moon will be placed correctly and transported. So, what do you think about this?
