National Air and Space Museum Expands Its Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center
The Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum has announced the expansion of its Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Virginia. This will be the first major construction and physical change to the center’s public areas since its opening in 2003. Additional display space will be added to the north end of the Boeing Aviation Hangar, increasing its size by 20%. The additional 44,000 square feet of space will allow the museum to bring artifacts out of storage and display new acquisitions. Construction is anticipated to be complete at the end of 2028, at which point the museum will begin to move artifacts into this new space. Like the rest of the center, the expansion will be privately funded.

The Shaking Moon: Moonquake Triggered Landslides and Boulder Falls
A new study co-led by the Center for Earth and Planetary Studies at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum and the University of Maryland reveals that surface changes near the location of the Apollo 17 landing site, in the form of landslides and boulders rolling down slopes, resulted from strong moonquakes. The paper, published in Science Advances, shows the possibility that future moonquakes could cause new thrust faults, the type of faults that produce escarpments, to form on the surface of the moon, and existing fault scarps to grow. These moonquakes could pose a potential hazard to exploration and long-term outposts and infrastructure on the moon.
