Agree to Cooperate on Human Spaceflight - European Spaceflight

Glad to hear that the humans and the Europeans have decided to work together.

BevelGear, w NASA cuts: ESA in talks about the 'full repercussions' – DW – 05/07/2025

It said it would achieve its objectives by cutting NASA’s workforce and IT services, NASA Center operations, facility maintenance, construction and environmental compliance activities. Other climate and environment-focused initiatives would also be eliminated.

Using this logic, the we’ll be landing on Mars by next week if they fire everybody, except for that one person who decided to go on an early break.

moxan46147, w Tuesday Telescope: A rare glimpse of one of the smallest known moons

If Lyft fails to address unsafe driving behavior, pursuing a claim can bring attention to dangerous patterns. This legal action can push Lyft to adopt more stringent safety protocols, what to do if your uber crashes such as better driver monitoring and stricter policies to deter risky driving. It benefits both current and future passengers.

Can’t wait for the next launch!

threelonmusketeers, w Inaugural Isar Aerospace Spectrum Flight Ends in Failure

It might have failed to reach orbit, but it still lifted off successfully and didn’t destroy the pad on the way back down. I’d say that’s pretty successful for the first flight of a new launch vehicle.

Buzztiger, w Farewell, Gaia! Spacecraft operations come to an end

So Gaia relies on maintaining very accurate pointing at the stars while measuring their position. For this purpose it uses special cold gas (Nitrogen) thrusters with very low flow noise. These cold gas tanks are now empty and Gaia simply cannot continue to operate.

CandleTiger, w Farewell, Gaia! Spacecraft operations come to an end

we don’t want it to reactivate in the future and begin transmitting again if its solar panels find sunlight.

Why go to so much work to ensure it can never be turned on again? What harm does it do to move the satellite to a graveyard orbit and just leave it listening?

Alpakka,

My thought as well, seems short sighted. Bandwidth permits from ITU maybe? Risk that someone else could hijack it?

Buzztiger, w Farewell, Gaia! Spacecraft operations come to an end

Sniff, our most successful scientific Spacecraft by publications. The new Voyage 2050 programme certainly provides science topics that could lead to a worthy successor.

saltesc, w Europe funds inflatable satellite drag sail demonstration

The system is designed to be initially 20 square centimeters in size but would inflate about 7,500 times larger to around 1.5 square meters, increasing atmospheric drag to accelerate deorbiting.

The only thing more impressive than seeing that expand out would be watching them pack it down.

threelonmusketeers,

Now I’m imagining bits of the sail bulging out of the rocket fairing like a hastily-packed sleeping bag at the end of a camping trip.

saltesc,

After decades of camping, I only recently found out most (modern) sleeping bags are actually meant to be stuffed in their bags, not rolled up. Just kinda keep stuffing it in there and they seem to naturally fill gaps better than if they were rolled up first, so they’re easier and much faster to pack away.

There’s a random LPT for ya.

threelonmusketeers,

Huh, TIL. Thanks!
