Description:
European scientists are turning an aircraft into a laboratory that simulates lunar gravity to prepare astronauts and technology for future moon landings as part of the NASA-led Artemis missions. <br/><br/>The moon is a strange little world. Only about 1.2% the mass of Earth, our planet's companion exerts a much weaker gravitational force on objects on its surface than the parent planet. As a result, an astronaut on the moon's surface feels as if he or she only weighs one sixth of their earthly weight. The same goes for all equipment the astronauts would use. It may sound like no big deal but this feeble gravitational pull creates all sorts of unforeseen problems that are difficult to prepare for in research labs on Earth. There is, however, one way to experience lunar gravity while still in the confines of Earth and explore these challenges before going to the moon: in a parabolic flight.<br/><br/>Credit: Space.com | footage courtesy: European Space Agency/Novespace/NASA<br/>A Future Studios Production

Mavrick Salazar, from Friendswood, Texas, loves riding on his father Emit's motorcycle – and having been given a tricycle by his grandma for Christmas, the three-year-old was able to emulate his dad when riding outside his home. But in March of this year, Mavrick was left heartbroken when his beloved trickle was stolen, leading him to ask his parents where it had gone regularly. Over the weeks that followed, Mavrick had to make do with riding his sister's balance bike – all while his parents were planning a special surprise for the youngster. On April 10, Mavrick was encouraged to head outside his home, where his dad presented him with an electric version of a motorcycle. The three-year-old couldn't hide his joy, immediately heading to the bike, which his father then showed him how to use, given that he was not used to an electric throttle.")
