Chefe da NASA propõe usar foguete Falcon Heavy para levar humanos à Lua até 2024

Um novo plano da NASA pode levar novamente humanos para a Lua até 2024. Para cumprir esse prazo, a ideia envolveria um foguete Falcon Heavy da SpaceX (uma das empresas de Elon Musk) e um propulsor criogênico construído pela United Launch Alliance.

A possibilidade foi levantada pelo chefe da agência espacial dos EUA, Jim Bridenstine, durante reunião com funcionários nesta segunda-feira (1º). “Fale sobre companheiros estranhos”, ele brincou ao citar as duas empresas.

Bridenstine ressaltou que a abordagem precisaria ser aprovada pelo chefe de voos espaciais tripulados da NASA, William Gerstenmaier. O plano reúne uma série de detalhes técnicos como o desafio de colocar o foguete Falcon Heavy em uma posição horizontal e, em seguida, carregá-lo com a nave Orion carregada com combustível em uma configuração vertical na base de lançamento.

Nave espacial Orion da NASA, construída para transportar astronautas à Lua, Marte e asteróides

“Isso exigiria tempo e custo e também há riscos envolvidos”, disse Bridenstine. “Mas adivinhe: se vamos pousar na Lua em 2024, temos tempo, a capacidade de aceitar alguns riscos e fazer algumas modificações. Tudo isso está na mesa”.

Com o comentário, Bridenstine quebra um tabu político: esta é a primeira vez que um oficial sênior da NASA abre as portas para que a agência utilize em suas missões tripuladas um foguete de empresas privadas, como o Falcon Heavy.

A reunião do chefe da NASA foi realizada para explicar como os humanos poderiam retornar à Lua até 2024, uma meta estabelecido pelo vice-presidente dos Estados Unidos Mike Pence na semana anterior durante discurso sobre política espacial em Huntsville, Alabama.

Até a discussão entre funcionários da agência, acreditava-se que apenas o Sistema de Lançamento Espacial da NASA poderia colocar a nave espacial Orion em órbita lunar.

Problemas

Apesar da expectativa positiva, ainda existem advertências ​a serem consideradas. Enquanto Bridenstine diz que o foguete SLS (ainda em desenvolvimento pela NASA) ainda é a opção preferida da agência, o primeiro lançamento do foguete foi adiado para até pelo menos o final de 2020, e não há garantia de que ele estará pronto para voar até lá.

Há também a questão de Gerstenmaier, que estava sentado na primeira fila durante a reunião na prefeitura. Em várias ocasiões, Bridenstine se referiu ao líder dos voos espaciais dos Estados Unidos: “Gerst vai ficar tão bravo comigo por dizer tudo isso”. Fontes disseram ao site Ars Technica que Gerstenmaier ainda não comprou a ideia de utilizar um foguete Falcon Heavy.

Finalmente, há a política. Não está claro se os democratas apoiariam uma política como a que foi apresentada pelo governo Donald Trump para utilizar empresas espaciais privadas. Certamente haverá oposição dos principais senadores republicanos, como Richard Shelby, do Alabama, que deve se opor a qualquer tentativa de deixar de lado o foguete SLS.

Por tudo isso, no entanto, Bridenstine reiterou a linha de Pence de que os “fins” de alcançar a Lua importam muito mais do que os “meios”. E ele encorajou a força de trabalho da NASA a abraçar a possibilidade de mudança que aceleraria o que tem sido, até agora, um ritmo bem lento na missão de levar humanos ao espaço. “É uma oportunidade única na vida”, disse Bridenstine.

Hurricane Florence prompts warning: ‘You put your life at risk by staying’

Watch Video

Officials in the potential path of a still fierce Hurricane Florence had a stern, clear message for people still in coastal towns under evacuation orders: Leave now.

“You put your life at risk by staying,” North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper said. “Don’t plan to leave once the winds and rains start.”

Cooper and his South Carolina counterpart, Henry McMaster, told the more than 1 million people who have been told to leave that if they don’t, they are on their own.

McMaster told residents in some counties that emergency responders will be pulled from areas expected to be hit hard.

“Even the rescuers cannot stay there,” he said.

Florence is forecast to crawl up to the North Carolina coast late this week and turn slowly left — a development that would smash the Tar Heel State with life-threatening storm surge, catastrophic winds and inundating rain while also endangering a large portion of South Carolina.

Florence, one of the strongest storms on the Eastern Seaboard in decades, is a Category 3 hurricane with winds of 115 mph. It is predicted to deliver tropical-storm-force winds by noon Thursday to North Carolina’s coast, and hurricane-force winds and dangerous storm surges by late Thursday or early Friday. Tornadoes are possible Thursday in eastern North Carolina.

TRACK THE STORM

Forecast models predict Florence’s center may slow to a crawl just off North Carolina early Friday and make a southwesterly turn — punishing the coast while moving perhaps only 2 to 3 mph. When and where it will make landfall is unclear.

The precipitation from Florence will start midday Thursday and then it will rain for four days, said CNN Meteorologist Tom Sater.

Latest developments

• Location: By 8 p.m. EST Wednesday, the storm was about 335 miles southeast of Wilmington, North Carolina, with maximum sustained winds of 115 mph.

• Rain and storm surges: The National Hurricane Center warned that although wind speeds in Florence have dropped, wind fields are still expanding, and Florence has more total energy, which will “create a significant storm surge event.” Florence could bring life-threatening storm surges, up to 13 feet.

• 10 million under warning or watch: The National Weather Service said more than 10 million people live in areas under warnings or watches for hurricane- or tropical storm- force winds.

• The punishing crawl: Florence’s predicted slow southward turn on Friday would mean some coastal areas could get damaging hurricane-force winds for more than 24 hours. “If this blows at 120 mph for four hours, … you lose a shingle every two minutes, and all of the sudden, you’ve lost your whole roof after four hours,” CNN meteorologist Chad Myers said.

• 83-foot wave: The hurricane center said wave heights in the worst part of Florence are as high as 83 feet. “These enormous waves are produced by being trapped along with very strong winds moving in the same direction as the storm’s motion.”

Residents flee as storm gets closer

More than 1 million people are under mandatory evacuations in Virginia and the Carolinas, where up to 40 inches of rain could fall.

Hurricane and storm surge warnings are in place from South Santee River, South Carolina, to Duck, North Carolina. Hurricane warnings are issued 36 hours before tropical-storm-force winds hit the areas. Storm surge warnings indicate a danger of life-threatening inundation from rising water moving inland from the coastline during the coming 36 hours.

As Florence closed in, some residents weighed whether to ride it out.

In Wilmington, Richard King, 64, said Wednesday morning that he, his wife and perhaps 60 of their neighbors planned to stay. His home, built 1 mile inland in 2016, is raised 25 feet off the ground and is built to withstand 140-mph winds, he said.

“We’re a good community up there. We’re going to stay tight and check on everybody,” he said.

By contrast, Allison Jones said she’s not taking any chances.

Her home is well inland in Hillsborough, North Carolina, but is at risk for flooding. Her family and nearby relatives will ride out the storm in Chattanooga, Tennessee, she said. The five adults, six children, plus a dog and a cat planned to leave their homes Wednesday.

The adults packed irreplaceable items, such as photo albums and heirlooms, while the kids stuffed their favorite toys, blankets and books into bags.

“Honestly, it tears me up thinking that, ‘What if in the end of this, this is all we have left?’” Jones said. “I wish I had more time to sort through and grab more of the sentimental items.”

Windows to leave barrier islands are closing

People on barrier islands or peninsulas were running out of time Wednesday to retreat by bridge or ferry.

On Carolina Beach just south of Wilmington, residents were told that the one bridge connecting to the mainland will close once sustained winds reach 45 mph.

Still, officials there think people will try to ride out the storm. And the leaders aren’t happy about it.

Those who stay will be on their own once the storm kicks up, said Town Manager Michael Cramer, adding that he wants those who hunker down “to give us your information on your next of kin.”

Ferry service from North Carolina’s Bald Head Island already has stopped.

Susan Faulkenberry Panousis said she has stayed on Bald Head during prior hurricanes, but not this time. She packed up what she could and took a ferry Tuesday night.

“When that last ferry pulls out … it’s unnerving to see it pull away and know, ‘That’s the last chance I have of getting off this island,’” she said Wednesday.

Some motorists near the sea may find it hard to fuel up, as gas stations close ahead of the storm. Along US 17, between Wilmington and Camp Lejeune, more gas stations were closed than not on Wednesday morning, a CNN crew there reported.

Contraflow reversal working, SC officials say

In South Carolina, traffic along parts of Interstate 26 and US 501 has been directed away from the coast.

Officials said traffic was moving well Wednesday though there have been two minor accidents in lanes where cars were traveling in the opposite direction from normal.

The contraflow will end Thursday at noon on 501 and at 6 p.m. on I-26.

Emergencies declared in several states

The Federal Emergency Management Agency warned that storm surge watches and warnings are in effect Wednesday for the entire North Carolina coast and parts of South Carolina. It urged residents to heed evacuation orders.

Officials in several states have declared states of emergency, including in the Carolinas, Georgia, Virginia and Maryland, where coastal areas are still recovering from summer storms.

Florence’s expanse has even captured the attention of the astronauts and cosmonauts aboard the International Space Station, who have been tweeting pictures of the storm back to Earth.

“Watch out, America! #HurricaneFlorence is so enormous, we could only capture her with a super wide-angle lens from the @Space_Station, 400 km directly above the eye,” German astronaut Alexander Gerst tweeted. “Get prepared on the East Coast, this is a no-kidding nightmare coming for you.”

Subtropical storm Joyce formed in the Atlantic on Wednesday but is not expected to threaten land. The four named storms in the Atlantic come as one in the Pacific is hitting Hawaii.
