#spaceport — Public Fediverse posts

The Moon’s planned first spaceport will have no runways, taxiways or gate announcements—NASA’s Gateway will follow an invisible orbit sculpted by the gravity of Earth and the Moon, and engineers have now published the first detailed strategies for keeping visiting spacecraft safely separated while they wait to dock.

The #Louisiana location has deep-water access for moving #rockets and payloads into the site.The southward-facing location offers potential access to polar orbits. Most of #SpaceX’s orbital data center satellites 🛰️ will likely end up in near-polar orbits.

There were 176 orbital launch attempts from #US soil last year, nearly 10 times 📈 the number in 2013. A new national #SpaceTransportation policy calls for the development of more #spaceports to support more than 1,000 launches and reentries per year by 📆 2030. Another element aims for putting high-priority payloads into #orbit within 48 hours ⏱️ of need.
