|March 2024
AEROSPACE ENGINEER
Throughout history, people have had some curious ideas about the Moon. Some see a face or a rabbit on the surface. Others believe the Moon can bring good luck. There's even a myth that a full Moon can help turn humans into werewolves! When Justin Darnall looks up at the Moon, he sees the future of space travel and exploration.
Darnall is an aerospace engineer-someone involved in the design, development, testing, and production of aircraft and spacecraft. He has worked on both systems and equipment. Today, he works for Blue Origin, a private spaceflight company and aerospace manufacturer. Jeff Bezos, famous for founding Amazon, started Blue Origin in the year 2000.
Darnall is a senior manager of software development, testing, and deployment for "lunar permanence" at Blue Origin's offices in Denver, Colorado. He and his team are developing software for the Human Landing System (HLS). It will be used to deliver humans to the Moon's surface as part of NASA's Artemis V mission.

Scientists Create Mice With Woolly Mammoth-Like Fur
RESEARCHERS AT A COMPANY IN TEXAS ARE WORKING TO CREATE A LIVING ANIMAL THAT RESEMBLES THE EXTINCT WOOLLY MAMMOTH. Recently, they produced mice with traits of the large mammal. The mice all have coats with mammoth-like fur, and some of the small mammals also have genes that help them store fat. Both features would help the animals survive in the cold Arctic, where the woolly mammoth once lived.
