Odie landing on the Moon is just the beginning of our cislunar journey. Intuitive Machines is focused on the bigger picture of helping to break down cost and logistical barriers of getting to the Moon, communicating on the Moon, and building infrastructure for a permanent human…

One of my favorite quotes is by George Bernard Shaw: 'Some men see things as they are and say why? I dream things that never were and say, why not?' Think about it - someone reading this could create the next fundamental shift in how we create and harness power, or learn the…

Unlike humans, Nova-C class lunar landers require more than one spine to provide a sturdy core structure. How many spines can you spot in this photo? #IM2

I was just getting my 'space legs' around this time on Expedition 51, and similar to getting your 'sea legs,' there is an adjustment period. My issue was less nausea and more bull in a china shop. Lots of bumps and bruises those first few days.

Let's celebrate #EarthDay with a #GlobalSelfie from Odie. Our Blue Marble's precious water holds the keys to life, and our IM-2 mission will search for water ice on our nearest neighbor, the Moon.

Intuitive Machines’ Micro Nova is a miniature Nova-C lander designed to search for water ice in permanently shaded regions of the Moon. Affectionately known as “The Hopper,” the spacecraft is designed to carry 8 kg of payloads up to 25 km from the IM-2 mission landing site.

I can't believe it's been almost 7 years since I first launched into space. No matter how much training you have, it just can't prepare you for how awesome space is. Everything is different and you have to approach it that way, it's almost like your mind works in three dimensions…

You often hear space is a team sport, but it might just be the ULTIMATE team sport! It takes hundreds, even thousands of people to safely get an astronaut to space or a lander to the Moon. The saying is true, space is hard, but like dad always said, 'if you love what you do you…

This stunning video of the SpaceX Inspiration4 mission launch was made of multiple telescope tracking shots and composed in a neverending loop.

During Expedition 51 I worked on an experiment from Centaurus High School students and being an alumni myself, it was a really special moment for me. I wanted the kids to understand that if they work hard, they can be anything they want to be. And I think it helps to see someone…

.@Astro_Peggy and I worked on an experiment in space called Magnetic 3D Cell Cultures and Antibody (CSM), but I called it the Cancer Seeking Missile. The drug we tested actually targeted cancer cells on lung tissue that we grew; instead of going in and just dropping a nuke like…

I joined Abby D. Phillip last night to talk about viewing the #SolarEclipse on the Earth vs. the International Space Station.

Where are you viewing the #TotalSolarEclipse from today? Remember to wave at Odie! 👋🌑☀️

NASA has awarded Intuitive Machines $30 million as a prime contractor to complete a Lunar Terrain Vehicle Services contract. The company’s global Moon RACER team will be tasked with creating a feasibility roadmap to develop and deploy a Lunar Terrain Vehicle on the Moon using…

The Space Suit Art Project lives on! I was thrilled to be part of the project onboard the space station in 2017 in the Unity Suit. Check out the new documentary trailer to see the great work being done by Nicole Stott and the whole team.

Between the trajectory and the number of orbits around the Moon, Odysseus traveled the equivalent of two and a half times the distance to the lunar surface, a total of around 600,000 miles. We expect our IM-2 mission to travel approximately the same distance.

The #1 question I'm asked (besides the bathroom) is how to become an astronaut. I would say it's a trifecta of luck, determination, and hard work. Growing up in the family construction business taught me about hard work from an early age and is something that has stayed with me…
