The first successful mission to Mars launched on 20 August 1975 and landed on 19 June 1976, ten months later.

The rovers Spirit and Opportunity took just 6 6️⃣ months to reach #Mars 🔴 in 2003 and 2004.

Various #SpaceAgencies are working towards a crewed 🧑‍🚀 mission. #NASA is working towards a 9-month journey, while #SpaceX hopes to cut the trip to 6 months https://www.skyatnightmagazine.com/space-science/how-long-does-take-get-mars

Mars reaches opposition on 📆 19 February 2027, 25 March 2029 https://www.skyatnightmagazine.com/advice/skills/mars-opposition

#European 🇪🇺 and #Japanese 🇯🇵 #SpaceAgencies opted for traditional, expendable 🗑️ rockets instead of pushing toward reuse ♻️.

As a result, both of these competitors for commercial #satellite launches are now about a decade behind #SpaceX in terms of launch technology. If the ambitious #Starship rocket is successful, that gap could widen further https://arstechnica.com/space/2025/08/with-recent-falcon-9-milestones-spacex-vindicates-its-dumb-approach-to-reuse

#Astronomers envision huge crater-filling radio dishes 📡 and arrays of antennas hundreds of kilometers 📏 across.
#SpaceAgencies and companies ⚒️ are planning fleets of #Moon-orbiting #satellites 🛰️ to help rovers navigate on the surface and to relay their data 📶 to #Earth. But even if satellites avoid key frequencies or switch off as they fly above #telescopes 🔭, unintended #emissions from onboard #electronics could be detectable https://www.science.org/content/article/moon-s-scientifically-important-sites-could-be-lost-forever-mining-rush

📆 2 Mar, 2023 #DreamChaser will provide a minimum of seven cargo 📦 service missions to and from the #ISS. #SierraSpace has entered into agreements with multiple international #SpaceAgencies. There's a growing list of compatible runways worldwide where the #DreamChaser could land 🛬 : #SpaceportAmerica, #KennedySpaceCenter, #Huntsville, #OitaAirport 🇯🇵, #SpaceportCornwall 🇬🇧. The first launch depends on the progress of #ULA’s #Vulcan 🚀. https://thespacebucket.com/is-dream-chaser-tenacity-on-track-to-launch-in-2023
