听From Earth.com:听On February 22, a significant milestone in space exploration was achieved when the lunar lander Odysseus, developed by听Intuitive Machines, successfully touched down near the Moon鈥檚 South Pole.听This event is hailed as the 鈥渄awn of radio astronomy from the Moon鈥� by Jack Burns, an astrophysicist at the 麻豆视频.听
The lander, which had to overcome various technical difficulties, deployed four antennas to record听radio waves听around the lunar surface, marking a major achievement in the field.
Burns, a co-investigator on the听Radio wave Observations at the Lunar Surface of the photo Electron Sheath听(ROLSES) experiment aboard Odysseus, will provide updates on the data collected and discuss future plans for radio astronomy from the Moon at the听244th Meeting of the American Astronomical Society听in Madison, Wisconsin.听
鈥淚t was heroic for Intuitive Machines to land under these conditions, and to deploy our antennas, take some data and get that data back to Earth,鈥� said Burns.
