The spacecraft called “Athena” was launched from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, USA, with a Spacex 9 rocket of Billcon Musk’s SpaceX production.
The unmanned aerial vehicle called “Grace” launched within the scope of the mission was planned to go down to a depth of the crater to a depth of ice, water or gas in a crater in the south pole of the Moon and without any sun.
In case of ice in craters, it is aimed to use these ice to produce water, oxygen and rocket fuel in the future processes.
According to the US Aviation and Space Agency (NASA), Athena’s experiments will play a key role on the return of astronauts to the Moon.
The spacecraft is expected to enter the Moon on March 6.
For the first time with Odysseus, landing for the Moon for the first time since 1972
The spacecraft developed by the US private company Intuitive Machines to land on the Moon within the scope of the “IM-1” mission was launched from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the US state of Florida with SpaceX 9 rockets on February 15.
The spacecraft had landed on February 23 at 02.23 at 02.23, and since the mission of the “Apollo 17” in 1972, the US had gone down in history as the first private spacecraft belonging to the US.
The 4.3 -meter -height six -legged carbon fiber and titanium landing vehicle carried out loads for 6 different experiments, which NASA plans to use under the Artemis mission.
In a few years, NASA paid $ 118 million to the Intuitive Machines to build and fly Odysseus as part of the commercialization of Moon delivery within a few years.
The spacecraft called “Odysseus”, which was sent to space within the scope of the “IM-1” mission, was on the side of his landing on February 24th.
