Next year, Louisiana State University will be the first university in the world to put technology on the Moon. The Tiger Eye 1 research mission is part of a multi-disciplinary university-industry collaboration to make future space travel safer for people and equipment by providing insight into the complex radiation environment in space.

LSU’s radiation detection device is now officially on the manifest for the broader IM-1 mission, the first in a series of commercial flights (and the first-ever to land on the Moon) that will bring science and technology to the lunar surface through NASA’s Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) initiative.

This will be the first time the U.S. lands on the Moon since 1972 and the Apollo program.

For such a pedestrian university, we have a badass space program and phenomenal professors in that arena. My favorite classes of all time were Astronomy 1 and 2 where we got to use some gigantic telescope to look at planets, etc.

It’s disquieting how so many LSU fans’ minds incessantly go to homosexuality, regardless of the topic.

It is quite impossible that this is true.

There must be some kind of caveat to the claim.

But grats anyway, that shite is cool.

Technically only 13.

So two end zone trips in two years.

That is very cool but the headline is misleading. There was technology on the moon in 1969. Glad someone is finally advancing the cause.

Didn't Auburn send astronaut(s) into space with a AU sign/flag years ago? Seems like I remember something about that.

Maybe not. Didn’t read it like that the first time.
