Seven weeks after the Orion spacecraft returned four astronauts from humanity’s first crewed journey around the Moon since Apollo, Artemis II Orion Vehicle Manager Branelle Rodriguez reflected on the mission’s achievements and how it is shaping NASA’s return to the lunar surface and future missions to Mars. Introduced by NASA’s Johnson Space Center Acting Director of Business Development and Technology Integration Monte Goforth, Rodriguez spoke at the Ion in […]
The Moon appears half-illuminated in this photo captured by the Artemis II crew on flight day 6. The terminator – the difference between light and darkness – provides a stark contrast and even greater perspective of the Moon’s rocky, uneven, and otherworldly surface features. The near side, which is what we can see from Earth, […]
Jason Peterson’s responsibilities for NASA’s Artemis II mission went beyond his usual role as the range operations manager at NASA’s Stennis Space Center near Bay St. Louis, Mississippi. Peterson credits his military experience with preparing him for the 12-to-16-hour workdays that helped bring the Artemis II test flight around the Moon and into view for audiences around the world.
As Artemis III kicks off, NASA continues working to streamline SLS production.
Der 2. Testflug der Spectrum von Isar Aerospace ist nach Angabe von NextSpaceFlight ab 6. August möglich. Damit könnte man auf einen ähnlichen Starttermin wie RFA mit dem Erstflug der RFA One kommen, welcher nach Startplatzfreigabe von SaxaVord ab 10. August möglich ist. Der Beitrag 12. 7. 2026 – 2. Testflug der Spectrum im August möglich erschien zuerst auf Raumfahrer.net .
