NASA Tests New Tech for Safe Space Landings

NASA is developing a new system to enable safer and more precise landings on celestial bodies.

The Safe and Precise Landing – Integrated Capabilities Evolution (SPLICE) experiment, developed by researchers at NASA’s Johnson Space Center, has successfully completed simulated lunar descent and landing maneuvers.

The SPLICE technology utilizes specialized navigation, guidance, and processing techniques.

This system is designed for landings on the Moon, Mars, icy worlds, and other destinations.

It aims to enable landings in challenging, previously inaccessible areas of scientific interest.
