CT (1235 GMT) ENTRY EXPERIENCE : NASA's Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex has a new reason for you not to enter their gates — at least for the first six minutes of your visit. The Kennedy Entry Experience is a new 3,000-square-foot video display that tells of NASA's past, present and future with technology that makes images appear to launch from the screen. The Entry Experience takes the place of a prior John F. Kennedy-themed fountain that was added in 2013. OCTOBER 12, 2023 / 10:30 A.M. CT (1530 GMT) PSYCHE TO PSYCHE : A SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket launched its first NASA spacecraft on Friday (Oct. 13), the agency's first mission to a metal-rich asteroid. Psyche, the probe, will take six years to reach Psyche, the rock, by way of a gravity assist at Mars and four Hall-effect thrusters powered by sunlight (a first for a deep space mission). The metal asteroid is of interest because it may be the remnant of a planetesimal's core, displaying how rocky worlds form. OCTOBER 11, 2023 / 1:35 P.M. CT (1835 GMT) ROCKET MOTORS RECEIVED: After a two-day road trip from Mojave Air and Space Port to Exposition Park, two 116-foot-long (35-m) solid rocket motors are now in place to stand as part of the space shuttle Endeavour in the future Samuel Oschin Air and Space Center. Delivered to the California Science Center on Wednesday (Oct. 11), the flight-proven motors were the last pieces needed prior to lifting and stacking the boosters, external tank and winged orbiter in their launch-ready configuration for public display. OCTOBER 5, 2023 / 6:25 P.M. CT (2325 GMT) HAUTE, HAUTE COUTURE: The next astronauts to walk on the moon will be able to say they did so while wearing Prada. The Italian luxury fashion house is working with Axiom Space to design the spacesuits that NASA's Artemis III crew will use at the lunar south pole. Prada will advise on materials and develop design features that will help protect astronauts against the conditions on the moon. OCTOBER 5, 2023 / 3:15 A.M. CT (0815 GMT) ROCKET MOTOR ROAD TRIP: Eleven years after Endeavour was delivered and seven years after its external tank arrived, the California Science Center is now ready to receive the last major components for its launch pad-like display of the complete space shuttle stack. The public is invited to come Wednesday, Oct. 11, and watch as the two solid rocket motors are trucked in to stand with Endeavour. OCTOBER 16, 2023 / 12:00 A.M. CT (0500 GMT) BLUE NOVA 825 : Benjamin Moore chose Blue Origin's orbital launch site in Florida to host the announcement of its Color of the Year for 2024. The space-themed "Blue Nova 825" is inspired by the brilliance of a new star being formed and "beckons us to unknown places." In addition to the reveal, Benjamin Moore also entered into a partnership with Blue Origin's non-profit Club for the Future to organize space-themed experiences at upcoming events, and more. OCTOBER 12, 2023 / 3:45 P.M. CT (2045 GMT) ROCK AND A HARD PLACE: The new trailer for the fourth season of "For All Mankind," the alternate space history series streaming on Apple TV+, reveals a new focus on asteroids and the promise they hold for the people on Earth and Mars. The plot line is timely, with NASA dubbing this fall "Asteroid Autumn" given the number of missions it has coming and going to the mineral-rich space rocks. "For All Mankind" Season 4 is set for a global debut on Nov. 10. OCTOBER 9, 2023 / 3:45 P.M. CT (2045 GMT) HERE'S THE (MOON) SCOOP: A satellite clock used to keep a Mercury astronaut's flight on time and a scoop used to collect the largest moon rock ever brought back to Earth are up for sale among 400 other space exploration and aviation lots being offered by RR Auction. The still-fully functional timing device was removed from Aurora 7 and presented to Scott Carpenter by his launch crew, whereas Apollo 16 lunar module pilot retained the shovel that helped him lift "Big Muley" into the lunar module. Bidding closes on Oct. 19, when both are estimated to sell for six figures. OCTOBER 5, 2023 / 12:20 P.M. CT (1720 GMT) YOUR SWATCH OF THE UNIVERSE: Swatch has partnered with the European Space Agency (ESA) to offer a new choice of customizable watches featuring Hubble and Webb space telescope images. Space fans can now pick their favorite swaths from colorful nebulae, star clusters or even a protostar to span the length of their watch face and strap. Each Swatch also includes an an ESA-branded loop and a postcard featuring the space telescope image used. OCTOBER 4, 2023 / 7:50 P.M. CT (0050 GMT OCT 5) TRACKING PERSEVERANCE AT EPCOT: Disney on Wednesday (Oct. 4) debuted a new set of Mars rover tracks outside Mission: SPACE at EPCOT. Replacing a 20-year-old display that was made using the engineering model for the twin Spirit and Opportunity rovers, the new exhibit used a prototype wheel on loan from NASA to leave a tire tread like the type left by Perseverance. The exhibit also includes sample tubes like what Perseverance uses to cache rocks.
