From the Editor-in-Chief

Dear Readers,

Recent successful lander missions to the Moon including those by private U.S. space exploration companies suggest new era of lunar operations measurements that will reveal more of the Moon’s surficial and exospheric descriptions and characterizations. For over a year, Journal of Space Operations Communicator has provided a platform for lunar operations and a forum for managing lunar safety hazards. In this issue, I share two papers intended for the annual meeting of Lunar Exploration Analysis Group (10/29/2024) “On the characterization of the dusty plasma environment and its impact on lunar operations” and the PowerPoint “On the Carbon Nanotechnology Conceptualization of a Blended Radiation-Lunar Dust Shield for Spacecraft and EVA Wearables” presented at AIAA’s ASCEND conference (07/3/2024). JSOC welcomes articles, papers, comments, and case notes representing all trends of aerospace science and technology.

Sincerely,
Ronald H. Freeman, PhD
