The name Tycho Magnetic Anomaly-1 (also known as TMA-1) refers to the strong magnetic field found somewhere in the lunar Crater Tycho by an American scientific satellite. Astronauts find that this magnetic anomaly is caused by an alien Monolith buried about 15 meters below the surface.

Tycho Monolith, designated TMA-1 (Tycho Magnetic Anomaly One), is a large black crystalline monolith found on Earth's moon in Arthur C. Clarke’s 2001: A Space Odyssey and its film adaption.

Soyuz TMA-1[a], also catalogued as Soyuz TM-35, was a 2002 Soyuz mission to the International Space Station (ISS) launched by a Soyuz FG launch vehicle with a Russian-Belgian cosmonaut crew blasted off from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. [3]

TMA-1 may refer to: TMA-1 mine, a circular, plastic-cased Yugoslavian minimum metal anti-tank blast mine Soyuz TMA-1, a Russian space exploration mission TMA-1 (Tycho Magnetic Anomaly - 1), the fictional Monolith (Space Odyssey) found in the moon's Tycho Crater in the novel and film 2001: A Space Odyssey

TMA-1 stands for Tycho Magnetic Anomaly - One; that was how they found it. The monoliths in Arthur C. Clarke's book and Stanley Kubrick's film 2001: A Space Odyssey were intended to be self-replicating probes, though the artifacts in "The Sentinel", Clarke's original short story upon which 2001 was based, were not.
