NASA Note Says Measured Hammer-Tap Inputs Remain Valid Despite Irregular Force Shapes

A NASA technical brief from Langley Research Center addresses instrumented hammer testing. It argues that such tests do not need to follow an idealized single half-sine force waveform. The authors note that crest ripples and separated contacts are acceptable as long as the full force and response are measured accurately. According to the brief, a change in force shape alters the excitation but does not by itself make the test record invalid. Contact details for lead contact Joel W. Sills are provided for further information.

NASA's CHAPEA Mars-simulation crew emerges after more than a year of isolation

The four-member CHAPEA crew stepped outside for the first time in over a year after completing a simulated Mars mission on October 31, 2026. Crew members Matthew Montgomery, James Spicer, Ross Elder, and Ellen Ellis spent more than a year inside the analog habitat. CHAPEA, short for Crew Health and Performance Exploration Analog, is designed to study how people cope with the physical and psychological demands of long-duration deep-space missions. The mission provides NASA with data on crew health and performance to inform future human missions to Mars. The crew's return marks the conclusion of the simulated journey.
