| NASA hopes to protect the moon and Mars from human pollution |
As human spaceflight has evolved, NASA has announced new guidelines to protect the moon and Mars from pollution.
The agency hopes to ensure that when people begin to explore space outside Earth's low orbit, we will not transfer organic matter or other pollutants from Earth to other worlds and vices, and vice versa.
"The agency has updated the guidelines to reflect this commitment before Artemis' next mission," NASA director Jim Brindenen said in a Tweet on Twitter.
"We will protect scientific discoveries and the Earth's environment while simultaneously conducting dynamic human discoveries and commercial innovations on the Moon and Mars," writes Brainstein.
The agency issued preliminary guidelines to update its guidelines. The first guideline focuses on robotic and human missions on the moon, while the second guideline focuses on the biological contamination of the Earth and the Moon on the surface of Mars.
"We are achieving the important goal of sustainable exploration of the moon while preserving the science of the future in permanent gray areas. These places are of great scientific value to shape our understanding of the history of planets, the moon, and the solar system," NASA said.
The agency should use data and expertise from soil tests to develop operations monitoring functions for human biological processes in space research.
It also aims to develop technologies to reduce pollution, such as b. They are more efficient waste disposal tools and techniques, and they hope to better understand the environmental processes of Mars to better understand how wild human beings release.
The purpose of publishing these guidelines is to protect the bodies of planets from potential biological pollution on Earth and ultimately disrupt scientific research and prevent potential biological materials from returning to Earth from Mars.
When the Space Agency transported Rover and other unmanned spacecraft to the moon and Mars, it was concerned about biological pollutants related to human survival.
If we bring pollutants to other worlds and we don't know when to start looking for humans, we run the risk of giving up the search for extraterrestrial life.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) hopes that its missions will not have a negative impact on the Earth's environment by introducing pollutants into space.
NASA hopes to send the next man and woman to the moon by 2024 and build a permanent human presence there.
