(Dominic Hart/NASA via AP) (Dominic Hart)WASHINGTON — (AP) — NASA said Wednesday that contact has been restored with its $32.7 million spacecraft headed to the moon to test out a lopsided lunar orbit. Contact was lost after one successful communication and a second partial one on Monday, after the spacecraft left Earth's orbit on its way to the moon, the space agency said. The spacecraft spent nearly a week circling the globe after launching from New Zealand on June 28. The 55-pound satellite is the size of a microwave oven and will be the first spacecraft to try out this oval orbit, which is where NASA wants to put its Gateway outpost. Gateway would serve as a staging point for astronauts before they descend to the lunar surface.

(Dominic Hart/NASA via AP) (Dominic Hart)WASHINGTON — (AP) — NASA said Tuesday it has lost contact with a $32.7 million spacecraft headed to the moon to test out a lopsided lunar orbit, but agency engineers are hopeful they can fix the problem. After one successful communication and a second partial one on Monday, the space agency said it could no longer communicate with the spacecraft called Capstone. Engineers are trying to find the cause of the communications drop-off and are optimistic they can fix it, NASA spokesperson Sarah Frazier said Tuesday. The spacecraft, which launched from New Zealand on June 28, had spent nearly a week in Earth orbit and had been successfully kick-started on its way to the moon, when contact was lost, Frazier said.

A rocket body first spotted by astronomers on a collision course with the moon late last year is what NASA said left a new impact site on the lunar surface almost four months ago.

(Roscosmos Space Agency via AP)MOSCOW – A trio of space travelers blasted off to the International Space Station on Wednesday, using for the first time a fast-track maneuver that allowed them to reach the orbiting outpost in just a little over three hours. NASA’s Kate Rubins along with Sergey Ryzhikov and Sergey Kud-Sverchkov of the Russian space agency Roscosmos lifted off as scheduled Wednesday morning from the Russia-leased Baikonur space launch facility in Kazakhstan for a six-month stint on the station. For the first time, they tried a two-orbit approach and docked with the space station in just a little over three hours after lift-off. Ryzhikov, who will be the station’s skipper, said the crew will try to pinpoint the exact location of a leak at a station’s Russian section that has slowly leaked oxygen.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Weather was to blame for SpaceX scrubbing Wednesday’s launch attempt. The launch has been rescheduled for 12:29 p.m. Thursday. Strong upper-level winds was one of the factors for Wednesday’s launch being scrubbed and they will remain strong Thursday afternoon. SpaceX plans to launch a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral with a cargo Dragon spaceship filled with several tons of supplies and science experiments bound for the International Space Station. High seas and gusty winds also played a role in scrubbing Wednesday’s launch.
