00:02:55
ESA’s future launcher preparatory programme is crafting a space transportation ecosystem, guiding the companies and engineers of today to develop and test the technologies required to meet future needs.
Space transportation will be moving towards frequent reusable launchers supporting a complete industrial ecosystem around Earth. In the coming decades, the European Space Agency (ESA) foresees transportation hubs in orbit around our planet providing logistic services much like airports or train stations on Earth. These hubs will offer refilling and maintenance services for spacecraft and provide platforms for manufacturing and assembly and in space transportation to other destinations.

Mars’s atmospheric mille-feuille What 3I/ATLAS tells us about other solar systems
Saturday, 20 September 2025 22:47
The earliest images of 3I/ATLAS, newly uncovered by Michigan State University, reveal how the interstellar object evolved as it traveled through our solar system - and how other distant solar systems might be different from our own.
Even before the comet was discovered in early July, it was hiding among the stars, too faint to be noticeable. In a new paper published in the Astrophysical Jo JUNO begins decade-long mission to probe neutrino mysteries
Saturday, 20 September 2025 22:47
JUNO, the massive Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory in China, has officially started recording data, launching a ten-year program to investigate one of the most elusive particles in physics. Supported by an international collaboration that includes the CNRS, the detector aims to reveal how neutrinos influence both the subatomic world and the evolution of the Universe.
Neutrinos are SES to test Cailabs optical ground stations for next generation laser links
Saturday, 20 September 2025 22:47
SES will evaluate new optical ground stations from France-based Cailabs to move space data using laser rather than radio signals. The company aims to lift throughput, harden link security, and ease congestion across increasingly crowded radio frequency bands by tapping optical communications.
The effort advances space laser links that can reach up to 10 gigabits per second, roughly 100 tim Shandong expands satellite launch capacity with record 115 spacecraft deployed
Saturday, 20 September 2025 22:47
Shandong province has advanced its role in China's commercial space industry with the Sept 9 launch of the Smart Dragon-3 Y7 from an offshore platform, its second mission in just one month. The province is emerging as a hub for sea-based launch activity, industrial development, and satellite manufacturing.

Saturday, 20 September 2025 22:47
Astronomers using the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope and other facilities worldwide have discovered that asteroid 1998 KY26, the final target of Japan's Hayabusa2 mission, is significantly smaller and rotates much faster than earlier estimates suggested. The findings provide crucial guidance for mission planning as the spacecraft prepares for its 2031 rendezvous.
