  • Today we’re celebrating Go Texan Day in true Lone Star style. 🤠⭐ We wrangled our Lunar Ladies and Space Cowboys to celebrate #GoTexanDay the only way we know how — boots on Earth, wheels on the Moon. Just like a trusted horse carrying its rider across rugged plains, our Lunar Terrain Vehicle is built to traverse the Moon’s harsh landscape with the same reliability and strength. #GoTexanDay #LunarTerrainVehicle #LTV #IntuitiveMachines

    NASA selects Intuitive Machines as one of 34 global volunteers to track the Artemis II mission. 🌕 Using our Space Data Network (SDN) and ground station infrastructure, Intuitive Machines will use one-way Doppler measurements to track radio waves transmitted by the in-fight Orion spacecraft on its 10-day journey to and around the Moon to help determine the spacecraft’s position and velocity during its journey. This builds on our successful tracking of Artemis I and helps NASA assess the space community’s tracking capabilities and identify ways to augment future Moon and Mars and mission support.

  • The winter solstice marks the shortest day of the year, but at Intuitive Machines, our vision for lunar mobility extends far beyond even the longest night. 🌑 Our work on the Lunar Terrain Vehicle, Moon RACER, is built for the extremes of the lunar environment, from the blistering heat of daytime to the freezing cold of long lunar nights. These systems reflect the ingenuity and resilience that define our mission, our team, and our partners. Happy Holidays from Intuitive Machines. 🎄

  • Congratulations to Jared Isaacman on his confirmation as NASA Administrator. At Intuitive Machines, we look forward to continued collaboration with NASA and remain focused on building, connecting, and operating the space infrastructure that enables mission assurance across the space domain. 📸: (NASA/Joel Kowsky)
