On the heels of a successful Artemis II test flight, teams at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida are pressing forward for the next Artemis mission. Technicians maneuvered NASA’s massive core stage of the SLS (Space Launch System) rocket inside the agency’s Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) at NASA Kennedy on April 28 in preparation for Artemis III, as the Artemis II crew module arrived back at Kennedy for post-flight analysis.  The Artemis III core stage will be […]

The hatches are open between the International Space Station and the new Progress 95 cargo spacecraft following the delivery of about three tons of food, fuel, and supplies on Monday. Meanwhile, physics equipment maintenance topped the scientific schedule as the lab residents installed new quantum research gear and stowed cryogenic fluid hardware.

The uncrewed Roscosmos Progress 95 spacecraft has docked to the aft port of the International Space Station’s Zvezda module at 8 p.m. EDT Monday.

The unpiloted Roscosmos Progress 95 spacecraft is continuing toward its planned 8 p.m. autonomous docking to the aft port of the station’s Zvezda module. It launched at 6:21 p.m. EDT on April 25 (3:21 a.m. Baikonur time on April 26) on a Soyuz rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.

A Progress 95 cargo craft is orbiting Earth on its way to resupply the Expedition 74 with about three tons of food, fuel, and supplies. Two cosmonauts will be on duty monitoring the Progress 95 when it automatically docks to the International Space Station rear port on the Zvezda service module at 8 p.m. EDT on Monday.

The waters and ocean sediments offshore of Uruguay are highly understudied, making it a unique location for a PACE PVST field campaign and an exciting opportunity to work alongside SPARC scientists. 

The largest rocket section for NASA’s Artemis III mission arrived at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on April 27. The SLS (Space Launch System) core stage traveled 900 miles on the Pegasus barge from NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans where the stage is manufactured, to complete assembly of the massive rocket at NASA Kennedy.  Teams will transport the top four-fifths of the 212-foot-long core stage, the section containing the liquid hydrogen tank, liquid oxygen tank, intertank, and forward […]

The unpiloted Roscosmos Progress 95 spacecraft is safely in orbit and headed to the International Space Station following its launch at 6:21 p.m. EDT (3:21 a.m. Baikonur time Sunday, April 26) on a Soyuz rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.

The unpiloted Progress 95 spacecraft is scheduled to launch at 6:21 p.m. EDT (3:21 a.m. Baikonur time Sunday, April 26) on a Soyuz rocket from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.
