A New Record: 19 Humans in Space🚀 Last week, a new record was set for the most people in space simultaneously: 19 astronauts, cosmonauts, and taikonauts. This surpasses the previous record of 17, set in 2023.👨🚀 The milestone came with the launch of a Soyuz spacecraft, bringing three crew members to the ISS. They joined nine others already aboard, including the Expedition 71 crew and astronauts from the Starliner mission, which has been docked since June.🌌 In addition, three taikonauts aboard China's Tiangong station and four private astronauts from the Polaris Dawn mission contributed to this historic moment.This achievement highlights the expanding human presence in space as both international collaborations and private missions grow.Follow us for more updates on space exploration.#SpaceEconomyMaster #SpaceEconomy #NewSpace #NewSpaceEconomy #SpaceEconomyInstitute #Space

Did you know that $150bn is traveling around us every 90 minutes?The International Space Station (ISS) is the most expensive man-made object in the world, with an estimated worth of $150 billion - the equivalent of 100 Burj Khalifas!The ISS travels at a staggering speed of 28,000 kilometers (17,500 miles) per hour, orbiting the Earth once every 90 minutes. This incredible pace means the astronauts aboard experience 16 sunrises and sunsets every day!Since its launch, the ISS has completed tens of thousands of orbits around Earth, serving as a hub for scientific research and international collaboration. It’s not just an engineering marvel but also a testament to what humanity can achieve together in the name of exploration and innovation.#SpaceExploration #ISS #Innovation #EngineeringMarvel #GlobalCollaboration #SpaceScience #InternationalSpaceStation #BurjKhalifa #sandaruwanmadugalle

Did you know that the International Space Station (ISS) stands as a testament to human ingenuity and international collaboration? 🌌✨ Built through the combined efforts of 15 nations, the ISS is not just a marvel of engineering but also a symbol of what we can achieve when we work together across borders. Orbiting Earth at a breathtaking speed of about 17,500 miles per hour, this magnificent structure has been our home in space since the year 2000, continuously inhabited by astronauts from around the world.The ISS represents the pinnacle of space exploration and innovation, offering a unique platform for scientific research that benefits life on Earth and inspires future generations. As it sails through the cosmos, the ISS reminds us of our shared responsibility to explore and protect our planet. Let's take a moment to appreciate this incredible technological and cooperative achievement—truly one of the most ambitious construction projects ever realized. 🚀🌍 #InternationalSpaceStation #SpaceExploration #GlobalCollaboration #HumanIngenuity #Innovation #SpaceScience #ISS #PioneeringSpace #AstronomyLovers #EngineeringMarvel

European Space Agency - LUNA Analog FacilityThe German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the European Space Agency (ESA) are jointly establishing afundamental facility for the preparation of future human and robotic missions to the Moonat the Cologne site. With its unique infrastructure and the seamless integration into the campus, LUNA will enable complex simulations for lunar surface activities of astronauts and robotic systems. LUNA will be an important and relevant building block within the international capabilities.LUNA establishes aninternationally distinct and visible competence centre for Moon activities as German-European contributionto the continued exploration of space.https://lnkd.in/gcpuhYHN#esa #europeanspaceagency #luna #lunaanalogfacility #moon #moonmission #moonexploration #spaceexploration

We are entering a completely new world of space exploration, one that will be more inclusive to the entire world.Over the weekend, the Axiom-3 mission docked with the international space station. It is composed of a completely European crew, including the first ever astronaut from Turkey. They are going to stay at the International Space Station for a few days and return on February 3rd.For those who aren’t aware, Axiom Space is a private space company working to build the world’s first commercial space station. In the meantime, they are partnered with SpaceX to provide the opportunity to travel to space to both private citizens and governments.Think about that.A country can now CREATE a space program using almost exclusively commercial partners.What an amazing time we live in.#SpaceExploration #Future #Space #SpaceX #Axiom

How does the arrival of the Ax-3 mission crew on the International Space Station contribute to international cooperation in space exploration? SpaceX Crew Dragon,Ax-3 astronauts,International Space Station,Space exploration,International collaboration

Crew Dragon Freedom Shuttle from Ax-3 Mission Successfully Docks at the International Space StationThe private Ax-3 mission's Crew Dragon Freedom shuttle has successfully docked with the International Space Station. The crew will conduct experiments on the impact of space on human health.The Ax-3 mission has reached the International Space Station. The four-person crew is led by Michael Lopez-Alegria, representing the United States and Spain. The crew includes Italian Air Force's Walter Villadei as the pilot and Marcus Wandt from Sweden, representing the European Space Agency - ESA. Also part of the crew is Alper Gezeravci, who has become the first Turkish space traveler.Both the Crew Dragon spacecraft and the Falcon 9 rocket that launched it into orbit were provided, launched, and operated by Elon Musk's SpaceX, under contract with Axiom Space, as was the case with the first two Axiom missions to the ISS since 2022.The crew will carry out experiments to study the effects of space on human health.#SpaceEconomyMaster #SpaceEconomy #NewSpace #NewSpaceEconomy #SpaceEconomyInstitute #Space

With all the talk about bringing down the ISS, I thought folks might like to know if we will have another space. On another note: China has a working Space Station.“As future Artemis missions establish humanity’s long-term presence on and around the Moon, habitation elements on the Gateway space station will serve as important building blocks. These elements will not only be a home-away-from home for astronauts during extended stays in lunar orbit, but also enable additional capabilities in support of Artemis objectives.”#GatewaySpaceStation #lunarmissions#artemismissions
