- NASA and Nikon are collaborating to develop a handheld camera, the HULC, for astronauts to use on the Moon during the Artemis missions.
- The camera, based on the Nikon Z9 model, will be equipped with advanced technology and modifications to withstand the lunar environment, including extreme temperatures and radiation.
- The camera will offer both still imagery and video capabilities, with a viewfinder, making it the first mirrorless handheld camera to be used on the Moon.
- In addition to the camera development, NASA is working on a docking system for the Orion spacecraft and the Starship Human Landing System, to facilitate crew movement between the two spacecrafts.
- Ongoing tests for the docking system and the partnership with Nikon are significant steps forward for the Artemis program, which aims to achieve the first crewed Moon landing since the Apollo missions.
