The Australian Space Research Institute (ASRI) is a non-profit organisation run entirely by volunteers. The ASRI was created to provide opportunities for space-related industry and technology development for the Australian technical community.

Most of the work at ASRI is done in collaboration with Australian universities such as the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, Queensland University of Technology and the University of Technology, Sydney.

ASRI is developing a vision for the future of Australia's space community, including industry. 

The Wenchang Satellite Launch Center (WSLC), or Hainan Space Launch Center, is a Chinese spaceport under conversion for operations in 2014. It is a former sub-orbital test center, located on the Hainan island, near the city of Wenchang.

It is the fourth and southernmost space vehicle launch facility (spaceport) of China. It has been specially selected for its low latitude, which is only 19 degrees north of the equator, which will allow for a substantial increase in payload, necessary for the future manned program, space station and deep space exploration program. Furthermore, it will be capable of launching the new heavy lift Long-March 5 booster currently under development.

Unlike the Space Centers on China mainland whose rail tracks are too narrow to transport the new five meter core boosters, Wenchang will use its sea port for deliveries.

Initial launches of the CZ-5 booster from Wenchang are expected in 2014, one year after the intended commissioning of the Wenchang Center.

Stott Space's mission is to bring the common man to space by expanding the frontier. With that in mind we have focused our first efforts on asteroid mining and raising public awareness of how ready space is for development. This will serve as a catalyst to promote the economy in space and provide the resources needed to build the beginning commercial infrastructure of space.

With our specialized team made up of visionaries, scientists, businessmen, and engineers we have looked into a topic that humanity has only written about for the last several years, the mining of asteroids. After considerable research, we have come to the conclusion that not only is it feasible to mine asteroids with todays current technology, but it can also provide us with many rare earth resources such as platinum, gold, water, etc.

The mining of these metals and other resources will help give space the needed leap to jumpstart the colonization of space as the required resources will become readily available.

The SPACEWAY satellites are communications satellites with capabilities for high-speed data networking, through use of multi-spot-beam antenna and onboard data processing technologies (offering high-capacity Ka-band ).

The SPACEWAY system was originally envisioned as a global Ka band communications system by Hughes Electronics. When the project to build the system was taken over by Hughes Network Systems, a subsidiary of Hughes Electronics, it was transformed into a phased deployment initially only launching a North American satellite system.

SPACEWAY-1, SPACEWAY-2 and SPACEWAY-3 have been launched and Hughes Network Systems has an option to purchase and have Boeing build SPACEWAY-4.

MESSENGER (an acronym of MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry, and Ranging) is a robotic NASA spacecraft orbiting the planet Mercury, the first spacecraft ever to do so.

The spacecraft was launched aboard a Delta II rocket in August 2004 to study Mercury's chemical composition, geology, and magnetic field. It became the second mission after 1975's Mariner 10 to reach Mercury successfully when it made a flyby in January 2008, followed by a second flyby in October 2008, and a third flyby in September 2009.

The instruments carried by MESSENGER were tested on a complex series of flybys – the spacecraft flew by Earth once, Venus twice, and Mercury itself three times, allowing it to decelerate relative to Mercury using minimal fuel. MESSENGER successfully entered Mercury's orbit on March 18, 2011, and reactivated its science instruments on March 24, returning the first photo from Mercury orbit on March 29. MESSENGER's formal data collection mission began on April 4, 2011. On March 17, 2012, having collected close to 100,000 images, MESSENGER ended its one-year primary mission and entered an extended mission scheduled to last until March 2013.
