MDA Space Partners with Starlab Space in Commercial Space Station Venture
Starlab Space LLC, the joint venture between Voyager Space, Airbus, and Mitsubishi Corporation, has announced that MDA Space Ltd. (TSX:MDA) has joined as a strategic partner and equity owner. This partnership expands the venture's reach into Canada.
MDA Space, known for its human-rated space robotics and the developer of the Canadarm robotics family, will provide external robotics, robotic NASA to measure moonquakes with help from InSight Mars mission
The technology behind the two seismometers that make up NASA's Farside Seismic Suite was used to detect more than a thousand Red Planet quakes.
The most sensitive instrument ever built to measure quakes and meteor strikes on other worlds is getting closer to its journey to the mysterious far side of the moon.

Virtual flying lessons for Hera asteroid mission
As ESA’s Hera spacecraft for planetary defence goes through pre-flight testing, the system that will steer it around its target binary asteroid system is also undergoing its final checks for space.

Mars’s surface is covered in all manner of scratches and scars. Its many marks include the fingernail scratches of Tantalus Fossae, the colossal canyon system of Valles Marineris, the oddly orderly ridges of Angustus Labyrinthus, and the fascinating features captured in today’s video release from Mars Express: the cat scratches of Nili Fossae.
Nili Fossae comprises parallel trenches hundreds of metres deep and several hundred kilometres long, stretching out along the eastern edge of a massive impact crater named Isidis Planitia.
This new video features observations from Mars Express's High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC). It first flies northwards towards and
Study: Under extreme impacts, metals get stronger when heated
Metals get softer when they are heated, which is how blacksmiths can form iron into complex shapes by heating it red hot. And anyone who compares a copper wire with a steel coat hanger will quickly discern that copper is much more pliable than steel.
But scientists at MIT have discovered that when metal is struck by an object moving at a super high velocity, the opposite happens: The hotte Shenzhou 18 crew conducts first spacewalk
The Shenzhou XVIII crew conducted their first spacewalk outside the Tiangong space station on Tuesday, completing several assignments, according to the China Manned Space Agency.
The agency said in a news release that mission commander Senior Colonel Ye Guangfu and crew member Lieutenant Colonel Li Guangsu returned to the Wentian science module at 6:58 pm after floating nearly eight and a KT SAT signs MoU with Rivada for next-generation data network
KT SAT, Korea's national satellite communications services provider, and Rivada Space Networks have signed an MoU to provide next-generation connectivity for Enterprise and Government customers, enabling expansion in Asia Pacific and beyond.
KT SAT will deploy Rivada's outernet, a space-based network in low earth orbit, to provide ultra-secure connectivity to Enterprise, Government, and Ma Colossus's AI-enabled hardware achieves space heritage aboard Loft's YAM-6 satellite
Colossus, formerly known as Zephyr Computing Systems, is at the forefront of the artificial intelligence (AI) computing hardware market for space, having achieved space heritage for its radiation-tolerant processor as part of Loft Orbital's YAM-6 satellite. This customer milestone brings Colossus's radiation-tolerant, GPU-based processor, Kestrel, to TRL-9, confirming a leap in AI-enabled space
