Huygens' principle can be seen as a consequence of the homogeneity of space—space is uniform in all locations. [20] Any disturbance created in a sufficiently small region of homogeneous space (or in a homogeneous medium) propagates from that region in all geodesic directions.
Huygens is an impact crater on Mars named in honour of the Dutch astronomer, mathematician and physicist Christiaan Huygens. It is the fifth largest recognizable impact crater on Mars after Utopia , Hellas , Argyre , and Isidis , and the largest one with a near intact rim.
Mons Huygens is the highest mountain in the Moon's Montes Apenninus range. Adjacent to the west is Mons Ampère. The Montes Apenninus were formed by the impact that created Mare Imbrium. Mons Huygens rises 5,300 m (17,380 ft) from its Mare Imbrium base, per altimetry data from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter. [1]
Blue Moon MK2 is to carry 4 astronauts to the Moon, for up to 30 days at a time, starting with the NASA Artemis 5 mission, set for 2030. [15] The Blue Moon lander is to be capable of conducting crewed lunar landings lasting up to 30 days, pending an uncrewed demonstration flight scheduled for 2027. [8]
