Lockheed Martin received a NASA contract for the construction of six to 12 Orion manned spacecraft, which will be used to launch to the moon. This was announced by NASA Director James Brydenstein on his Twitter page.

NASA's contract for the construction of lunar ships received Lockheed Martin




The United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has contracted Lockheed Martin for the construction of manned spacecraft for lunar missions. According to the agreement, the company is obliged to supply NASA with a minimum of six or a maximum of twelve manned ships in the period until September 30 2030 year.

Today we provided Lockheed Martin with a contract for a production line that will provide 12 missions. This is a milestone in the implementation of the Artemis program, which provides for the landing of the first woman and the next man on the moon by 2024

- said Brydenstein.

Earlier it was reported that NASA has launched a new lunar program called Artemis. The program provides for three phases: an unmanned flight in the second half of the 2020 of the Orion spacecraft mounted on the heavy rocket Space Launch System (SLS) around the Moon and its return to Earth, the moon will fly around the moon with a crew aboard in 2022 and in 2024, astronauts are scheduled to land in surface of the moon.

US President Donald Trump previously announced the acceleration of the lunar program of the United States and the allocation of additional funds for it.

    Getting a contract is already serious!
    Rogozin also promised to build a superheavy rocket and a base on the moon.
    Let’s take a look ... what will come of it all.

        Everything is very ambitious. The following year, they gathered to fly to the moon (even in unmanned mode), but there is no mention of a launch vehicle (SLS). request On the other hand, this rocket is being designed according to old practices, the first stage marching engine and side boosters will be taken from the Shuttle, the second stage marching engine has been “run-in” on the Delta, Titan and Atlas. But on the third hand, the Americans are not designing a cart with bells, but fellow which at the DOE ready will carry 95 - 130 tons! fellow And there were only two such missiles in the history of rocket science - Saturn-5 and Energy. In a word, there will be no flight (in my opinion, of course) of Orion to the Moon next year! negative

          There is a launch vehicle and it is already being assembled, not prototypes for bench testing, but a flight copy for this flight.

          Here literally the other day was.

            RN is - this is when the rocket made at least one partially successful flight. And before that, it’s scrap so far. Have you heard anything about the hydrogen club? It is technologically more prestigious than nuclear! So, note that the engines of the first and second stages of this rocket are hydrogen, which is terribly volatile and for which, from a technical point of view, a very complex rocket body must be designed. I assure you that not everything is as simple as with cowboy arrogance fool Americans report about it! However, time will tell which of us is right. hi

              Well, here they are assembling a rocket for the first flight (Artemis1) right now. And according to the plan, they fly next year.

              That is, they are at the stage of assembly of the flight copy of the rocket. Having passed the test stages at the stands.

              As for the hydrogen club - so the Americans are the owners there, the USSR caught up, and then died. They plan to return in the 24-25 years.

              Now they are making a methane club - Bezos and Mask are already at the booth stage, the Chinese are at the stage of intense activity by the 21 year in flight, Rogozin also puts this as a priority for Kazakhstan - but so far only in 3 models and prospectuses.

                    You apparently have not fully studied the material on "Delta-4", because as the Americans testify (I take material from Wikipedia, immediately specifying this):
                    In 2015, ULA decided to abandon all modifications of Delta IV, in addition to Heavy, by 2018 due to competition with SpaceX (launches will be carried out by the Atlas V booster rocket), and further it is expected that Atlas V and Delta IV will be completely decommissioned, they will be replaced by the new Vulcan booster [5], the first launch of which is planned no earlier than 2019[6]. However, as Tori Bruno assured ULA CEO, a launch vehicle cannot be completely abandoned before government customers are ready for it, as some satellites are specifically configured to launch on Delta IV.
                    Beginning in July 2015 and until the launch vehicle is decommissioned, all launched configurations of the Delta IV launch vehicle will use the improved RS-68A main engine [7].

                    So what will Orion fly on if the first launch of a new rocket is planned for 2019?

                        In any case, the full-fledged LCI Delta-4 with a crew in a three-stage rocket did not reach the point - i.e. there’s nothing to talk about yet. Or is it not so?

                        Actually, in my time, the "Almaz" LKI with the crew was practiced before deciding on its future fate. And without the participation of the crew in the LKI, there could be no talk about the fate of the station. So I think the Americans only tested the layout, and no more.

                        Then, returning to the original information, no full-fledged trials of Delta-4 with Orion in nature existed, and the information that appeared only gave the wish for the valid, when the next stage of the tests was given out almost as a success for all programs. At least I take it that way.

                The answer is simple - in the 70s so much material was collected on the moon that they raked it for 25 years.

                To understand the magnitude of the exploration of the moon at that time, I give one example:

                2019 year - Yutu-2 - 9 months - traveled ~ 300 meters
                1971 year - Lunokhod-1 - ~ 10 months - traveled 10 km 540 meters

                As they say - feel the difference. laughing

                1 May 2009 in 9: 40
                A new reason to think recently gave the Japanese. Their automatic probe "Kaguya" photographed from a small height of the landing site of the missions "Apollo 15" (1971) and "Apollo 17" (1972). There should have been plenty of equipment left. Including “self-runaway” crews on which astronauts rode on the surface of our satellite. But nothing of the kind is visible. There is not even a hint.

                  The pile of photos of training on the ground, which caused such a stir. There are pictures and ascents from the moon and descents to the moon, then from the orbital module, then from the descent, then from the return.
                  Against the background of the moon, the earth, them together ...

                  There are pictures of them with traces of rover tires. Their probe flew above the American. The quality is worse.
                  The American, by the way, has been shooting everything for 10 years now. He perfectly took a picture of both the Soviet Lunokhod and three automatic Luna stations. From the same height and the same camera as the Apollo.

Even after fifty years, Americans cannot repeat the landing on the moon, and therefore they are developing a lunar program according to a new one. Any literate person will immediately understand that if civilization does not know how to repeat previously achieved at a lower cost, then society is degrading.

                  I will not bother you much, but in the sixties, when we still did not have satellites with infrared technology, the Americans deceived us strongly with false airfields based on technology, on which we had to launch nuclear strikes and which were recorded on our satellite images. So I don’t need to tell me what the enemy’s misinformation is, the means by which the Americans possessed it long before flying to the Moon — for example, it was widely used in the Second World War. From here and draw conclusions.

A simple question - which of the stations independent of the Americans received the transmission of these images to Earth? I'm not talking about the fact that a bunch of digital photos could be written to disk even on Earth, placed in a probe, and periodically thrown off as evidence of an American landing.

                      That's because now the 21st century, Americans in every possible way postpone the second landing on the moon, because Now they’ll be caught immediately on a scam. I think that the Chinese will eventually organize the landing of their astronauts on the moon, and then much will become clear, as well as whether the Americans have set foot on it.

    US President Donald Trump previously announced the acceleration of the lunar program of the United States and the allocation of additional funds for it.

    Somewhere we already heard it:
    January 14 2004 years US President George W. Bush introduced the new US space program. It talked about new ships, about a flight to the moon, a manned base on Earth’s satellite, a manned expedition to Mars, and even contained vague hints of flights outside the solar system. The main question that excites Americans: is Bush’s speech just beautiful words on the eve of the election campaign or a plan for space exploration that will certainly be implemented?
    Bush’s space exploration plan is:
    2004-2008 - development of a manned spacecraft that will replace the shuttles and will be able to deliver people to the moon.
    2004-2010 - resumption of shuttle flights terminated after the crash of the shuttle "Columbia" to the International Space Station.
    2010 - termination of work on the ISS, replacement of shuttles with new ships.
    2010-2014 - unmanned flights to the moon.
    2015-2020 - manned flights to the moon, creation of an inhabited base on it.
    After 2020 - the preparation of the expedition to Mars.

    So the Americans have been "flying" to the moon for a long time - they simply hid it from Trump, and he, not knowing it, made his statement.
