The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) plans to soon launch a huge lunar rocket Artemis 1.
Recall, as part of the Artemis 1 mission, the first launch of the new monstrous NASA SLS (Space Launch System) launch vehicle is planned, which will send the Orion spacecraft on an unmanned flight around the moon and back. The launch is scheduled for August 29, 2022.
The mission will also conduct an experiment called Callisto, which will demonstrate how consumer technology can integrate with spacecraft in the future. The experiment involves Amazon Alexa and WebEx from Cisco. The goal is to demonstrate how voice commands can improve the lives and work of astronauts in space.
For this purpose, an iPad will be located on the center console of the Orion, on which Cisco’s Webex video conferencing software will be tested to stream content from Mission Control in Johnson. The Alexa voice assistant will also be tested.
