Washington. The US space agency NASA is now preparing to set up a Wi-Fi network on the Moon. This information has been given in a recent study.

Mary Lobo, director at NASA’s Glenn Research Center, said in a press release that this is an excellent opportunity to develop solutions to the challenges of sending astronauts to the moon under Artemis and the growing problems in our society.

NASA’s Compass Lab has done a recent study regarding the Wi-Fi program. Speaking to Insider, Steve Olson of Compass Lab said that this study is very important, because the crew, rovers, science and mining equipment associated with Artemis Basecamp will need a better connection to stay in contact with Earth.

NASA said in the press release that digital inequality and lack of access to better Internet service are a socioeconomic concern spread across the United States. According to a report, about 31 percent of Cleveland homes do not have broadband access.

Earlier there was news that NASA is going to start its next ‘Moon Mission’ with the moon. The goal of this mission is to build a permanent crew station on the lunar surface.

For this, before sending an astronaut to the moon, the agency is launching a golf-court-sized robot on the moon’s cold, shadowy South Pole. The name of this rover will be VIPER i.e. Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover. This rover will spend 100 days in search of water sources on the surface of the Moon. This will be the first survey related to the South Pole of the Moon.

Formation of the Moon 4.5 billion years ago, the Moon was formed from the remnants of the collision of Earth and a planet named Theia. Astronauts brought some pieces from the moon during the Apollo missions. These pieces belong to the same planet.

The moon weighs about 81 billion tons. The moon is not perfectly round, it is shaped like an egg.
