After returning from a grueling six month stay in microgravity, astronauts part of NASA's Crew-7 mission shared their experiences onboard the International Space Station (ISS) earlier today. The Crew-7 crew of four astronauts returned to Earth earlier this month, and the event saw NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli, European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut Andreas Mogensen and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) astronaut Satoshi Furukawa all shared difficulties adjusting to life back on Earth due to slow adaptation to gravity. Their mission was marked by multiple surprises, such as the delay of a resupply mission to the station and Moghbeli losing track […]
After a multi year delay that has seen several scrubs and scheduling problems, Boeing is ready to become NASA's second private contractor for crewed missions to the International Space Station (ISS). Boeing's CFT crew flight test mission is slated for liftoff in May as of now, and representatives from the company and NASA shared details about the flight earlier today. The upcoming mission will be Boeing's first crewed flight to the ISS, and it follows Starliner's orbital flight test (OFT) in 2022, which was the last time the spacecraft took to the skies.

A crucial day in Washington that saw budget releases all over included a $25 billion President's Budget Request Summary for NASA for the next fiscal year. The figure marks a flat budget for the space agency for the last three years, coming at a time when interest rates remain high along with inflation having made its impact on public and private sector wallets. NASA's fiscal year 2025 budget request not only marks 0% growth over the current fiscal year, but it also includes a hefty $2.5 billion drop over the projections for 2025 made in last year's plans.

After a successful on time liftoff of the Crew-8 mission late night yesterday in Florida, managers from NASA and SpaceX shared more details about the problems their teams had to work with to ensure that the Crew Dragon was clear for launch. Before liftoff, SpaceX engineers discovered that a coating on the Dragon spacecraft had a crack, and they, along with NASA engineers, had to ensure that the cracks did not pose a risk to the crew before the rocket could launch. The go ahead for launch was given roughly ten minutes before liftoff, and according to NASA's Steve Stich […]
After a delay due to weather constraints, SpaceX and NASA's Crew-8 mission to the International Space Station (ISS) successfully lifted off from NASA's Kennedy Space Center (KSC) late at night yesterday Eastern time. The mission is SpaceX's ninth NASA crewed mission to space and the firm's third launch to the space station this year. It is also SpaceX's second crewed flight for 2024, with the first one being a private mission for Axiom Space. The launch took place on time, and before liftoff, engineers had to work on sealing the spaceship and cracks on the top of the Dragon spacecraft. […]
