Andrew Molera State Park
The advanced date for opening has allowed people to access the Big Sur area earlier than expected, providing opportunities for local businesses and a return to normal for park visitors. Due to the new traffic signal, significant delays can be expected, but the public is allowed into Big Sur at this time.California State Parks is supporting the Governor’s Office and the Big Sur community by opening all recreational activities as soon as possible. State Parks will be open to camping on Thursday, May 23rd so that people may enjoy the state park system in a safe, responsible, and enjoyable manner.Some of the lodges and private campgrounds may be open this weekend. We encourage visitors to look for overnight accommodation in the surrounding area, including the Big Sur Lodge, which is currently taking guests. However, the soonest we can responsibly provide camping opportunities will be May 23rd. We apologize for any inconvenience over the next seven days due to the earlier than anticipated opening date.State Parks is proud to have been a significant contributing agency to the emergency response effort. During the closure, we provided equipment staging facilities, emergency response, medical evacuation areas, and facilities for the community that were temporarily stranded in Big Sur. We are now shifting our operations from emergency support back to our regular campground activities. We want to thank you for your understanding as we worked diligently to return to normal operations.Thank you for your interest and support of California State Parks. Big Sur State Parks will OPEN for Campers with reservations Thursday, May 23. This includes Andrew Molera SP, Pfeiffer Big Sur SP, and Julia Pfeiffer Burns SP.Highway 1 is closed approximately 5 miles South of Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park due to three additional landslides. Limekiln SP remains CLOSED as it is within this section of Highway 1. The anticipated full opening of Highway 1 at Regent's Slide is not until Fall of 2024.Camping reservations can be made at www.reservecalifornia.com up to 6 months in advance. Always check area weather forecasts and road updates before visiting.

We want to build the first lunar railway system, which will provide reliable, autonomous, and efficient payload transport on the Moon. A durable, long-life robotic transport system will be critical to the daily operations of a sustainable lunar base in the 2030’s, as envisioned in NASA’s Moon to Mars plan and mission concepts like the Robotic Lunar Surface Operations 2 (RLSO2), to:

Transport regolith mined for ISRU consumables (H2O, LOX, LH2) or construction
Transport payloads around the lunar base and to / from landing zones or other outposts

We propose developing FLOAT — Flexible Levitation on a Track — to meet these transportation needs.
The FLOAT system employs unpowered magnetic robots that levitate over a 3-layer flexible film track: a graphite layer enables robots to passively float over tracks using diamagnetic levitation, a flex-circuit layer generates electromagnetic thrust to controllably propel robots along tracks, and an optional thin-film solar panel layer generates power for the base when in sunlight. FLOAT robots have no moving parts and levitate over the track to minimize lunar dust abrasion / wear, unlike lunar robots with wheels, legs, or tracks.

Sounds of Artemis I Moon Rocket Launch
Liftoff! NASA’s Space Launch System carrying the Orion spacecraft lifts off the pad at Launch Complex 39B at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 1:47 a.m. EST on Nov. 16, 2022. 
Listen to the sounds of NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket roaring to life and lifting off from the launch pad for the first time. The Moon rocket, carrying the Orion spacecraft atop, launched the Artemis I test flight from Launch Complex 39B at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 1:47 a.m. EST on Wednesday, Nov. 16, 2022. As the rocket launched, NASA launch commentator Derrol Nail said, “We rise together, back to the Moon – and beyond.”
Artemis I is the first in a series of increasingly complex missions to the Moon. With Artemis, NASA will land the first woman and the first person of color on the lunar surface and establish long-term exploration at the Moon in preparation for human missions to Mars.

Mars Audio Log #10 - NASA
And having not only that cohesion with the crew, but with everybody on the outside, with the team members that are supporting the CHAPEA habitat, as well as the family members that Kelly expressed are such a critical role in the health and the motivation really of the crew was really wonderful to hear.
It was also nice to hear about the nature. Nature seems to be something that is a constant theme in our check-ins with the crew, whether it’s Anca really loving interacting with the gardens or just really wanting to run as soon as she gets out the beach will being a wonderful thing to look forward to. And even trips together to different parts of the world. It seems like Kelly and Anca really want to go to Scandinavia. Just that connection with Earth seems to be something that is sorely missed for adventurers that we find in our crew and certainly helps me to appreciate just life on Earth and the outdoors. Alright, again, that was our check-in with Kelly and Anca. Now let’s go to our final pair, Flight Engineer Ross Brockwell and Medical Officer Nathan Jones for their audio log.
Nathan Jones: Hello, my name is Nathan Jones. I’m the crew medical officer for CHAPEA Mission 1.
Ross Brockwell: I’m Ross Brockwell, I’m the flight engineer.
Nathan Jones: So the first question’s always, “How’s everything going?” Still going great.
Ross Brockwell: I just wish I had a more interesting answer each time, but I’m happy to say it still going great.
Nathan Jones: Yeah, I agree with you. I don’t think there’s a whole lot else to say besides that.
Ross Brockwell: So tell us about some of the highlights and activities of the last month.
Nathan Jones: Most exciting, I would say is most of us been trying to count up. I think that’s probably the best way to go, but we did hit a big milestone, the T-100 days until egress. So I think that was pretty exciting.
Ross Brockwell: Yeah, it’s been helpful for us to hit milestones, but that was a big one. A hundred days left.

Mars Audio Log #10 - NASA
They go outside to do spacewalks, but those are certainly not an everyday occurrence. For the most part, four humans are confined in this space. So how much space do you need? What about private space? Communal space? Human factors weigh significantly into the layout of this design.
Dr. Lauren Blackwell Landon, team risk discipline scientist with KBR based here at the Johnson Space Center, will discuss her role in the habitability component of CHAPEA. She studies crew habitat designs in a way that is more supportive of long-term behavioral health team cohesion and performance. This month, the crew recorded in two pairs of two, with crew members that they have not yet paired with. So let’s start our episode with a check-in from our two pairs of the CHAPEA crew members and then from Lauren Blackwell Landon on the habitability of the Mars Dune Alpha habitat. Let’s get into it.
[Music]
Host: Alright, first, let’s hear from Commander Kelly Haston and Science Officer Anca Selariu.
Kelly Haston: Hello, this is a recording for Houston We Have a Podcast, episode (audio log) 10, and my name is Kelly Haston. I’m the commander of CHAPEA Mission 1.
Anca Selariu: And I’m Anca Selariu, a science officer for CHAPEA Mission 1.
Kelly Haston: So today we’re going to tell you guys a little bit about what’s been going on in our 3D printed habitat during our Mars mission analog. First, we’re going to start off by telling you how everything is going.
Anca Selariu: Well, the good news is we’re still alive.
[Laughs]
Kelly Haston: It’s true. We are absolutely still alive, which is important for making a podcast.
Anca Selariu: And not only that, but we also celebrated T-100 recently. And it’s really weird to start actually counting in in double digits versus three digits all of a sudden. But Kelly here has been doing a fantastic job getting us excited and getting us to celebrate each and every single one of our milestones.

Zero Gravity Research Facility | Glenn Research Center | NASA
During the drop the experiment operates autonomously with all experiment power, data acquisition, and control functions located on the freely falling experiment vehicle.
An electronics technician makes adjustments to the experiment on the ‘H’ drop vehicle at the Zero Gravity Research Facility.
After falling for just over 5 seconds the experiment vehicle is stopped in the decelerator cart, located at the bottom of the chamber. The decelerator cart is 11 foot ( 3.3 m) in diameter and nearly 20 ft (6.1 m) deep. It is filled with 1/8” (3 mm) diameter expanded polystyrene beads. These beads dissipate the kinetic energy of the 2500 lb. experiment vehicle, which is traveling at about 113 mph (50.5 m/s) when it enters the decelerator cart. The experiment vehicle is stopped in about 15 feet (4.6 m) of expanded polystyrene and experiences a peak deceleration rate approaching 65g.
The experiment drop vehicle serves as a load bearing structure and protects the experiment hardware from the shock loads experienced during the deceleration. The typical drop vehicle used is cylindrical in shape. It is 42” in (1 m) diameter and has and overall length of 13 ft (4.0 m). The drop vehicle gross weight is limited to a maximum of 2500 lbs (1130 kg).
Quick Facts

Take a virtual tour of our Zero Gravity Research Facility.
The Zero Gravity Research Facility provides a near weightless or microgravity environment for a duration of 5.18 seconds. This is accomplished by allowing the experiment vehicle to free fall, in a vacuum, a distance of 432 feet (132 m). The facility can provide a microgravity test environment for a fraction of the cost conducting an experiment in space and provides the best gravity levels of any of NASA’s ground based low gravity facilities.
Experimental Drop Vehicles used in the Zero-G Facility can accomodate payloads up to 1000 lbs (455 kg).
The free fall is conducted inside of a 467 foot (142 m) long steel vacuum chamber. Chamber pressure is reduced to 0.05 torr (760 torr = standard atmospheric pressure).
