Hubble Directly Images Possible Plumes on Europa.

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope took direct ultraviolet images of the icy moon Europa transiting across the disk of Jupiter. Out of ten observations, Hubble saw what may be water vapor plumes on three of the images. This adds another piece of supporting evidence to the existence of water vapor plumes on Europa - Hubble also detected spectroscopic signatures of water vapor in 2012. The existence of water vapor plumes could provide a future Europa flyby mission the opportunity to study the conditions and habitability of Europa's subsurface ocean.

Preparing America for Deep Space Exploration Episode 14: Fired Up.

NASA is pressing full steam ahead toward sending humans farther than ever before. Take a look at the work being done by teams across the nation for NASA’s deep space human exploration programs, including the Space Launch System, Orion and the Ground Systems Development and Operations Programs, as they continue to propel human spaceflight into the next generation. Highlights from the second quarter of 2016 included the installation of platforms in NASA Kennedy Space Center’s Vehicle Assembly Building in preparation for launch vehicle processing, relocation of the Orion crew module to prepare for propulsion tube welding and the second ground-based qualification test of the Space Launch System’s five-segment booster.

I will travel to the United States and Kennedy Space Center November 6. This must be tested.

Walk on Mars with Buzz Aldrin!
For a limited time, visitors will have the opportunity to walk on Mars with the Microsoft HoloLens™ mixed reality headset using real imagery from NASA’s Curiosity Mars Rover. Apollo 11 astronaut Buzz Aldrin will guide visitors on their journey as a hologram on the surface of Mars. Curiosity Mars rover driver Erisa Hines will also appear, leading visitors to the sites of exciting discoveries about the Red Planet. Located in a pop-up theater at the main visitor complex, Destination: Mars will only be available through December 2016.
