  1. Forget #Mars! While USians still dream of that dry, much too cold #planet, the newest European #SpaceLaunch produced a sensation!

    A #redPlanet that could have water, has a cosy climate, like Earth's Provence. The EU #spaceAgency AAOA will land on this planet tommorrow at 12 a.m. CET. It's the first carbon neutral flight producing zero waste. Our astronauts look forward to take the first soil sample on Nectarina 42 in the constellation Fruitissima!

  2. RE: mastodon.social/@europeanspace

    🇮🇹 Three members of the Italian #SpaceAgency’s board of directors have resigned, resulting in the board’s dissolution. This will not be the first time #ASI has been placed under the stewardship of an extraordinary commissioner 🔂

  3. These incidents are becoming so common that the #Australian 🇦🇺 #SpaceAgency has put together a trio of steps to take if suspected space debris is discovered.

    "Very often they will be made of something like titanium which is really good at surviving. Just don't let them randomly reenter. Bring them down via controlled reentry and then if they are survivable it doesn't matter because you dump them somewhere where there aren't any people" 🤕 space.com/space-exploration/la

  6. The largest collaboration between #NASA and #ISRO 🇮🇳 to date...it is likely welcome that a mission designed to study Earth's surface, including the influence of #ClimateChange, is of value to the #SpaceAgency arstechnica.com/space/2025/07/

  7. @planet4589 : "When I was a kid 🧒, it was #LEO. Now, the frontier is out near the #asteroid belt, and the #Moon and #Mars are becoming part of where humanity just hangs out, maybe not yet as people, but with #robots. Meanwhile, #LEO is so normalized that it doesn’t take a #SpaceAgency to deal with it. You just call #SpaceX. Thousand years from now, perhaps more people live off Earth 🌌 than on it" cearkadia.edu.pl/jonathan-mcdo

  8. The Polish 🇵🇱 #SpaceAgency (#POLSA) stated that its Space Security Department “constantly monitors and analyzes threats in outer space originating from artificial objects, including rockets”. In a 28 February POLSA update, the agency confirmed that the information regarding the uncontrolled re-entry of the #Falcon9 second stage had been sent to the wrong email ✉️ addresses at the Ministry of National Defence. On 11 March, the POLSA President had been officially dismissed. europeanspaceflight.com/polish

  11. 🇦🇺 The news will put pressure on the #Australian #SpaceAgency to grant it the crucial permit it had been hoping to receive six months ago ⌛.
    Founder Adam Gilmour has been hugely critical of the Space Agency’s handling of the situation, arguing the pushback was “more them than us” and even suggesting that officials were concerned that its #Eris launch vehicle could hit a passing ship 🚢 spaceconnectonline.com.au/laun

  12. 🇮🇳 #India's #SpaceAgency expects a 20%-30% increase 📈 in its budget (currently $1.55 billion 💵) in the coming years. Their rocket launch 🚀 prices are on a par with #SpaceX's. #NASA's approved budget stands at $25 billion 💰. The Indian government estimates its share of the market is currently just $8 billion, but it is aiming to increase 📈 that to $44 billion over the next decade reuters.com/world/india/indias

  13. It’s unlikely a Harris administration would make revolutionary new moves on #space 🌌 beyond pressing ahead with #Artemis. If Harris continues the Biden administration’s policy, it’s unlikely the #SpaceAgency would see a significant boost in funding 💰. Overall, #SpaceExperts are expecting more of the same if Harris takes office. politico.eu/article/kamala-har

The team found that 91 per cent 📊 of genes were affected, with many switching on and off at the wrong time of day. “#SpaceTravel was once thought to be unachievable; however, the growth of the #SpaceIndustry means it is now a real possibility. In addition, new plans are in place for #UK 🇬🇧 #astronauts 👨‍🚀 going to the #ISS in 📆 2025 via the UK #SpaceAgency #Axiom programme.” telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/03/1
