I wouldn’t mind adding AWS to my resumé.

Great for launching to polar orbits. Smaller inclination change required.

Connollygf, 15 dni temu do esa w The next large class Science mission will fly to Saturn and land on Enceladus to search for signs of life past and present

That sounds fascinating! Enceladus is such an intriguing moon with its potential for harboring life. I wish I could be there to learn more about the mission concept. Speaking of deep dives into thrilling adventures, if you’re interested in taking a break after the event, you might enjoy a fun game like Retro Bowl, which you can check out Retro Bowl. Enjoy the Open Day!

Heard about the Enceladus model at ESTEC's Open Day. Makes me think of navigating icy terrains! Anyone else get a Snow Rider 3D vibe imagining exploring alien landscapes? It's cool to see real-world science inspiring thoughts of virtual exploration. Hope the study team is having a great day sharing their mission concept.

Finally a cool mission again, don’t miss out on the Hollywood grade 3D model of Enceladus‘ surface

For many, the presence of a sex doll fills a psychological gap: the longing to feel connected, to express vulnerability without judgment, and to explore identity in a safe and supportive environment.

threelonmusketeers, 2 miesiące temu do esa w European Space Agency and Korea AeroSpace Administration embark on new cooperation

Under an implementing arrangement, the agencies may use each other’s ground stations for telemetry, tracking and command functions.

Yay for international cooperation!

ESA’s European Space Tracking (Estrack) network has a core of six stations in six countries, including three deep space antennas, while the agreement will open access to the Korea Deep Space Antenna in Yeoju. This cooperation will boost resilience for missions by filling gaps in coverage and providing back-up tracking stations should the main facility not be available because of environmental reasons or congestion.

I didn’t even know there was an antenna in Yeoju. Cool stuff.

I find it quaint that so much of the Deep Space Network is essentially “shout really loudly at the spacecraft with giant radio dishes”. Future missions will probably make use of laser relay networks, but since there are still so many currently operating missions which use radio, it seems like these dishes will be with us for a long time.

tl:dr; They found Pandora. No comment so far from James Cameron.

Glad to see that ExoMars is progressing despite cooperation with Russia falling through.

burble, 4 miesiące temu do esa w European Launcher Challenge: preselected challengers unveiled

I’m glad that a bunch of startups made the cut. It makes sense that Maiaspace got in, as an arm of Ariane, but they’re probably less strapped for cash. And thank goodness at least two have reusable concepts, PLD and Maia.

threelonmusketeers, 4 miesiące temu

Yeah, it’s a solid bunch. We’re coming up on ten years since the first Falcon 9 booster landing. Multiple chinese companies are developing F9 clones. Europe really ought to be testing reusable boosters by now. Hopefully at least one of these will work out.

burble, 4 miesiące temu

As much crap as I give the incumbents, Maia is looking like Europe’s best bet at the moment.

It’s a bad sign that PLD isn’t targeting a Miura Next launch until 2030. Hopefully Miura 5 goes well for them in 2026.

Thank you for sharing this. This is truly a rare event

Neat! It seems like interstellar objects pass through our solar system pretty often. The more we look, the more we find.
