The National Aeronautics and Space Administration in partnership with the Italian Space Agency will position the moon starting in 2023. The two agencies plan to land the Lunar GNSS Receiver Experiment (LuGRE) on the Moon’s Mare Crisium basin. There, LuGRE is expected to obtain the first GNSS fix on the lunar surface.

The European Space Agency officially announced testing of Galileo’s Open Service Navigation Message Authentication (OSNMA) in its signal-in-space, allowing the first OSNMA-protected position fix to be successfully computed. This is the first-ever transmission of authentication features in open signals of a GNSS.
