Crowded Space Station: There Are 9 People from 4 Different Space Agencies in Orbit Right Now |
While the ISS is usually staffed by three to six astronauts and cosmonauts, there have been nine crewmembers on board the space laboratory since last Wednesday (Sept. 25), when the Soyuz MS-15 spacecraft arrived with three new crewmembers! UAE Space Agency Celebrates World Space Week - UrduPoint ...uae - space - ...world - space - week ...The UAE Space Agency announced its participation in the World Space Week , which focuses on the role of science and technology for the benefit of humanity. Taking place between 4th and 10th October, this year's theme of the World Space Week will be The Moon: Gateway to the Stars!! This isn't a permanent set-up; part of the reason there are so many humans in space right now has to do with overlap in crew assignments
Nine is certainly not the highest number of people ever stationed on the space lab. The record for the largest population on the ISS was set in 2009, when there were 13 people on board. The last time there were nine people on board was in 2015, during NASA astronaut Scott Kelly's "Year in Space" mission.
Was A Hole In The Space Station 'Done By A Human Hand'? Russian Space Agency Refuses To Tell NASA
What could be worse than being 250 miles above Earth in orbit only to realize that the spacecraft you're in is losing oxygen
That's what happened on the International Space Station (ISS Now a row has broken out about the incident, with hints that Russian space agency Roscosmos now knows the cause of the leak, but will keep it secret from NASA, its main partner at the ISS

While its descent began as planned, communication with it snapped minutes before touchdown, leading to heartbreak across the nation
An emotional Sivan was hugged by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In his address to the nation, Modi told the space agency that the entire country was proud of it. Support for the scientists leading India's ambitious but scrappy space exploration efforts poured in from across the world. "You have inspired us," NASA said in a tweet commending the Indian space agency's efforts.
Quite a lot has been going on:
NASA latest: Space agency unable to explain mysterious Mars sounds after quake recording |
* * *
The Marsquakes were picked up by NASA’s Seismic Experiment for Interior Structure (SEIS Marsquakes, the equivalent of earthquakes, are caused by movements in the planet's interior, possibly from volcanic hotspots
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory said: “Both suggest that the Martian crust is like a mix of the Earth's crust and the Moon’s
Electrical engineer Constantinos Charalambous of Imperial College London, who helped to provide the audio recordings, said: "It's been exciting, especially in the beginning, hearing the first vibrations from the lander
Scientists had to speed up and process the earthquake recordings so that they could be heard by the human ear.
SpaceX Falcon 9 Rocket Will Launch Private Moon Lander in 2021 | Space
"We're honored that Intuitive Machines selected Falcon 9, SpaceX’s tried-and-true workhorse, for this pioneering mission to the moon," SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell said in a statement . "Our partnership with Intuitive Machines is a great example of two private companies working together with NASA to advance space exploration.

In May of this year, NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) program tapped Intuitive Machines and two other companies, Orbit Beyond and Astrobotic, to build landers to take agency payloads to the lunar surface. Intuitive Machines got $77 million, Astrobotic received $79.5 million, and Orbit Beyond netted $97 million.
NASA news: Space agency rolls out experimental all-electric aircraft - The X-57 | Science | News
X-57 Project Manager Tom Rigney said: “The X-57 Mod II aircraft delivery to NASA is a significant event, marking the beginning of a new phase in this exciting electric X-plane project
“With the aircraft in our possession, the X-57 team will soon conduct extensive ground testing of the integrated electric propulsion system to ensure the aircraft is airworthy
* * *
“We plan to rapidly share valuable lessons learned along the way as we progress toward flight testing, helping to inform the growing electric aircraft market
NASA hopes to deliver a new generation of small aircraft that are quieter, more efficient and environmentally friendly
If the idea catches on, it could mark a significant step forward towards personal aircraft – flying cars.
Chandrayaan-2: Isro needs to find Vikram's fate on moon, says Nasa Mars mission expert - SCIENCE
Isro's Istrac (satellite telemetry, tracking and command network centre) lost contact with Vikram when it was descending and was just 2.1 km above the lunar service
"We don't really know what happened then and how it (Vikram) hit the moon's surface and where, Devereaux, the principal engineer for the Mars 2020 lead flight segment, has worked on the Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity Rover project before becoming the lead system engineer for the flight system and fault protection and deputy lead for the entry, descent and landing team
The UN observes the space week every year from October 4 to 10, coinciding with the launch of the first man-made earth satellite -- Sputnik 1 on October 4, 1957 -- and the signing of the Outer Space Treaty on October 10, 1967.
