NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center develops AI-assisted technology for detailed 3D moon-to-Mars navigation.

NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center is advancing optical navigation technology, crucial for moon-to-Mars missions. Three research teams are developing a modeling engine (Vira), a horizon-based navigation algorithm, and a programming tool (GAVIN) for deep learning models. The technology simplifies planetary exploration with detailed 3D maps, accurate navigation, and AI-aided feature identification.
