As part of the Lunar GNSS Receiver Experiment (LuGRE) experiment, NASA and the Italian Space Agency kickstarted a new era of navigation on the lunar surface.
NASA uses GPS on the moon for the first time
“On Earth we can use GNSS signals to navigate in everything from smartphones to airplanes,” Kevin Coggins, deputy associate administrator for NASA’s SCaN (Space Communications and Navigation) Program, said in a statement. “Now, LuGRE shows us that we can successfully acquire and track GNSS signals at the Moon.”
NASA Accesses Earth's GPS From the Moon in Historic First
NASA has achieved a global (and beyond) first by accessing the Earth's GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) from the Moon. This development, which makes it possible to receive precise navigation data on the Moon from established Earth technologies, could be a game-changer for future lunar missions that require exact, real-time mapping.
A NASA test just proved GPS signals can be picked up on the moon
NASA and the Italian Space Agency say they have broken the record for the farthest detection of Earth-based navigation signals from 243,000 miles away in space .
