NASA and SpaceX came together, will more secrets of the Universe open?

 

As soon as the name of space comes, very interesting thoughts start coming in our minds like who created space? And there is a desire in our mind to know the secret of the universe, even today, mankind has yet to know a lot about space and to find out this secret. The whole country has formed its own organization to learn more about space, America's NASA is one of them.

NASA and its Successful missions.

NASA {National Aeronautics and Space Administration} is USA government Space agency with its head quarter in Washington DC. 

NASA has achieved many successes in the field of space and its scientists have a lot of experience related to space, it has done many mission and achieved success in them. The First Apollo 11 manned mission to the lunar surface was sent by NASA in 1969 and During this mission Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to land on the lunar surface. This mission was the most important mission in human history because after this mission, the interest in space within people started growing more. You all must seen the Moon landing of the famous Apollo 11 Mission.

NASA made a live broadcast of Apollo 11 landing on the lunar surface, causing millions to watch it on live tv and a camera was placed on the lunar lander by NASA, with the help of which Neil Armstrong appeared all over the world, taking the first step on the lunar surface. Here is their video of Neil Armstrong's First stepping on the lunar surface.

Neil Armstrong put his front foot on the moon and said his famous quote " That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind ". More Apollo missions were carried out by NASA and it was successful in all except Apollo 13. During the Apollo 13 mission, there was a blast inside the oxidized tank of Apollo 13, Causing considerable damage to the Lunar Module. After the blast, Apollo 13 Lunar Module was not in the condition to survive on the lunar surface, then NASA officials decided that Astronaut should be taken back to the earth carefully, and that is exactly the NASA engineers did. They successfully rescue Apollo 13 Crew members and the Crew safely brought down to earth. This was the largest rescue operation undertaken by NASA. 

Along with the Apollo mission, NASA has achieved more success in space such as the International Space Station send by NASA and some other space agencies. The International Space Station is another joint project, between five space agencies: NASA, Roscosmos, JAXA, the ESA, and the CSA. A station in low-Earth orbit, it has allowed astronauts to spend time and conduct experiments in space since commencing operations in 2000. It's a remarkable collaboration between peers and has been invaluable in advancing not only the study of Microgravity but of conditions on the Earth below. Look at the picture of the International Space Station.

A Robot named Curiosity was sent by NASA in 2012 on the land of Mars successfully. Curiosity provides us with a lot of information about Mars. There are many advanced types of the instrument inside the Curiosity, this instrument gave their data to the scientist present on the earth and Science did their further research with this data. 

SpaceX and its great debut!

Elon Musk Space Exploration Technologies Corp., trading as SpaceX was formed on 6 May 2002 and became the first private company that sent NASA's Astronaut Robert Behnken & Douglas Hurley to the International Space Station with the help of a Falcon 9 rocket and will return safely to Earth.

But this Journey of SpaceX was not easy at all. The biggest challenge for him was to design his own launching vehicle so that SpaceX takes its Satellite to space and that is exactly what happened, in 2008, SpaceX built its first Felcon 1  Rocket and became the first liquid-fuel rocket to reach the earth's orbit.

After the Success of Falcon 1, SpaceX now aimed to build even more powerful rockets that would take humans to space and deliver them safely back to earth. Thanks to  hard work of the Scientists and engineer of SpaceX, SpaceX achieved more success and build its more powerful Falcon 9  Rocket. The Special feature of this rocket was that a part of it could be used back after launching. Modern technology was used in Falcon 9 due to which it can land safely back in the earth or water after few minutes of launching. The advantage of this is that SpaceX can earn more profits by lunching the Satellite of other space agencies within a lower budget. Here a look of Falcon 9 first stage landing like a drone ship.

NASA and SpaceX Came together. 

After the immense success of SpaceX, it now has the support of NASA but for this, SpaceX has to prove its rocket and send a test flight from earth and do docking with International Space Station and land it back on earth safely. The purpose of that flight was probably to make sure that SpaceX's launching vehicle was capable of future humans flight? and it happened exactly the same, the test flight of SpaceX was a perfect and safe return to the earth surface and after this flight, NASA sent two of its Astronauts to the International Space Station with the help of  SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket and return safely to earth. This mission is called Demo-2, and it is the first lunch of NASA Astronauts from the U.S.  since 2011. It is also the first crew launch in the history of SpaceX. SpaceX postponed the first launch attempted due to severe weather in the area.

SpaceX next goal is to establish humanity on the surface of Mars. SpaceX and NASA will now work on the project even further. They plans to do more mission in the future.  It is indeed a very good thing for private companies to participate in the space project on an increased scale. This will increase competition in the space sector and new projects will come and the human dream of going to space in less money will also be fulfilled. We wish SpaceX and NASA to achieve even more success in the future. 

We will continue to bring you all the information related to science on our website, you can also share our articles on Facebook and Twitter.
