SpaceX and Vast Team Up to Create First Private Space Station

Haven-1 is scheduled to reach low-Earth orbit aboard a Falcon 9 rocket no earlier than August 2025, and will initially act as an independent crewed station, before connecting to a larger Vast base, currently in development. If all goes well, the Vast-1 mission will then send a four-person crew via SpaceX Dragon to dock with Haven-1 for up to 30 days.

While the International Space Station has at least another seven years of life, plans for Haven-1 represent “the first steps in Vast’s long-term vision of launching much larger, artificial gravity space stations in Earth orbit and beyond,” says Vast CEO Jed McCaleb.

Eventually, Vast plans to develop a 328-foot-long multi-module spinning artificial gravity space station, delivered by SpaceX’s Starship transportation system.

Chinese rocket scientists conducted frame-by-frame analysis of Starship launch

China is developing the fully reusable Long March 9 rocket, which will have a similar design to Starship.

A team of rocket scientists in China reportedly provided an accurate diagnosis of the problem that caused Starship to spiral out of control before Elon Musk’s SpaceX released its own official statement on the massive Mars rocket, a report from the.

The fully-integrated Starship launch system spun out of control shortly after it first took to the skies, on April 20, in what was an otherwise successful first flight test.

Why you don’t want ‘phantom energy’ on a spacecraft

You may not have heard of piezoelectric materials, but odds are, you have benefitted from them.

Piezoelectric materials are —like crystals, bone or proteins—that produce an electric current when they are placed under mechanical stress.

Materials that harvest energy from their surroundings (through light, heat and motion) are finding their way into solar cells, wearable and implantable electronics and even onto spacecraft. They let us keep devices charged for longer, maybe even forever, without the need to connect them to a power supply.

Four ISS astronauts just took Crew Dragon for a spin

Four crewmembers at the International Space Station (ISS) enjoyed a short ride aboard SpaceX’s Crew Dragon Endeavour on Saturday, moving the spacecraft to a different port to make way for a cargo ship arriving in June.

SpaceX Crew-6 members Stephen Bowen and Woody Hoburg of NASA, along with Sultan Alneyadi of the United Arab Emirates and Andrey Fedyaev of Russia, undocked from the Harmony module’s space-facing port at 7:23 a.m. before flying the short distance to the same module’s forward port.

Will we as humans even reach another star system?

Will it ever be possible for us, humans, to travel to another star system?
This video was inspired by a debate that took place on an article I wrote on that same topic.

Some peole argue the distance is just to far, therefore it will be imossible.

I this video I list some near-future technologies, something we can build within the next 200 years gven what we know today, and reach another star system.
