Aboard the International Space Station, Expedition 57 Commander Alexander Gerst of ESA (European Space Agency), Roscosmos Flight Engineer Sergey Prokopyev of Roscosmos and NASA Flight Engineer Serena Aunon-Chancellor offered their thoughts on the 20th anniversary of the complex during a downlink message received Nov. 7. The first component of the space station, the Zarya module, was launched Nov. 20, 1998 on a Russian Proton rocket, followed two weeks later by the launch of the Unity module on the space shuttle Endeavour to inaugurate the assembly of the outpost. The footage includes an interview with ISS Program Manager Kirk Shireman conducted at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston Nov. 9.

A trip into space produces physiological effects in human beings, but it can also change a person in a profound, psychological way. Host: Reid Reimers SciShow has a spinoff podcast!

It is part of the human spirit to explore. During 60 years, we have selected 350 people as astronauts to lead the way. For nearly two decades, humans have been living and working aboard the International Space Station in low-Earth orbit to enable future missions forward to the Moon and on to Mars while also leading discoveries that improve life on Earth. Congress passed the National Aeronautics and Space Act on July 16, and President Eisenhower signed it into law on July 29, 1958. NASA opened for business on Oct. 1, 1958. Our history tells a story of exploration, innovation and discoveries. That story continues in the next 60 years.

Soyuz TMA-50a crew have started the final phase of their trainings for the flight to the International Space Station (ISS). The main crew of ISS-57 Expedition consists of ROSCOSMOS cosmonaut Alexey OVCHININ and NASA astronaut Nick HAGUE. Their backups are ROSCOSMOS cosmonaut Оleg KONONENKO and CSA astronaut David SAINT-JACQUES. Cosmonauts and astronauts tried on their flight spacesuits, and performed their leak test. After taking their places in the vehicle cosmonauts and astronauts tested the radio communication system, laser ranging system, got familiar with the onboard data files, studied the flight program and a list of cargo to be delivered to the ISS and their accommodation locations in the vehicle. During the final training sessions at the launch site training of the space vehicle manual proximity operations to the ISS, audit of science hardware sets, testing of upcoming ballistic operations and other preparatory procedures are also planned. This very day, a Technical Management meeting was held, where a decision was taken to fuel Soyuz TMA-50a with propellant components and compressed gases. The launch of Soyuz-FG launch vehicle with Soyuz TMA-50a with the crew of the next Expedition to the International Space Station (ISS) is scheduled for October 11, 2018 from the Baikonur launch site.

Look inside Boeing’s Starliner and SpaceX’s Crew Dragon, the commercial spacecraft that will fly astronauts from the U.S. to the International Space Station for the first time since 2011.

On Aug. 21 NASA astronaut Drew Feustel, commander of Expedition 56 aboard the International Space Station, played the first game of tennis in space with his crewmates.

NASA recently announced who will be flying on the first commercial crew flights and both Boeing and SpaceX are racing to get their spaceships, their launch sites AND their spacesuits ready to return humans to space from US soil. Boeing’s spaceship is the CST-100 Starliner, a capsule shaped spacecraft that can fly up to 7 astronauts to space. For NASA missions to the International Space Station, it will fly up to 4 astronauts at a time, filling the rest of the capsule with cargo. The Starliner will launch on top of perhaps the most reliable rocket ever made. ULA’s Atlas V with 2 strap on solid rocket motors and 2 RL-10 upper stage engines. A configuration that an Atlas 5 has never actually flown before, but all the hardware has been flown many times throughout history.

Auñón-Chancellor gives us a look as she grows and examines endothelial cells, which are important in the human body’s blood supply system. Scientists want to know if the space-grown cells can improve testing methods for drugs which are aimed at choking off blood supply to cancerous tumors in the body. Credit: NASA

(14 Aug 2018) NASA astronauts who will be riding the SpaceX Dragon discussed the challenges they've faced and what they're looking forward to while speaking at the SpaceX headquarters in Hawthorne, California ahead of the Crew Dragon mission. NASA last week assigned the astronauts who will ride the first commercial capsules into orbit next year and bring crew launches back to the U.S. "Being able to fly a first flight of a vehicle as a test pilot is a once-in-a-generational type of opportunity," said astronaut Doug Hurley, who will be on the first crew of the SpaceX Dragon. SpaceX and Boeing are shooting for a test flight of their capsules by the end of this year or early next, with the first crews flying from Cape Canaveral, Florida, by next spring or summer. Nine astronauts were named to ride the SpaceX Dragon and Boeing Starliner capsules — five on the first crew flights and four on the second round of missions to the International Space Station. NASA has been paying billions of dollars to SpaceX and Boeing to develop the crew capsules to pick up where the shuttles left off, while also paying billions for cargo deliveries to the space station by SpaceX and Northrop Grumman. The cargo missions started in 2012. The crew missions have been delayed repeatedly because of the technical challenges and difficulties of making spacecraft safe for humans. A recent abort test by Boeing resulted in leaking engine fuel.

On July 31, 1971, Apollo 15 astronauts drove on the moon for the first time. David Scott, the commander of Apollo 15, and James Irwin, the lunar module pilot explored the moon for three days by driving around in the lunar roving vehicle. This moon buggy was folded up and stowed inside the lunar module and deployed after landing. Unpacked, it measured about 10 feet long, 7 feet wide and 45 inches high. It could travel up to 8.6 miles per hour and allowed the astronauts to venture farther from their landing site than previous Apollo astronauts could. For their first drive, Scott and Irwin went to Elbow Crater to gather samples and take photos. Throughout their stay on the moon, they drove more than 17 miles.

In space, there is no such thing as waiting for the dust to settle. Rather than drifting to the ground, dust particles float about continuously and can irritate eyes and lungs. By recording how much nitrogen oxide he exhales in space as part of the Airway Monitoring experiment, ESA astronaut Alexander Gerst is helping researchers understand how to monitor, diagnose and treat lung conditions like asthma here on Earth. The findings of this monitoring will also be crucial to exploring the Moon and even Mars – where dust is considered even more toxic and must be carefully managed for astronauts’ health. The Airways Monitoring experiment has been underway since 2015. Later in the Horizons mission Alexander will repeat the experiment in the reduced pressure of the airlock. ★ Subscribe: http://bit.ly/ESAsubscribe Follow Alexander and the Horizons mission on social media via http://bit.ly/AlexanderGerstESA and on http://bit.ly/HorizonsBlogESA.

NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine recently sat down with Nobel Prize winner John Mather and the agency's Associate Administrator for Science, Thomas Zurbuchen for a conversation about NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. They talked about the challenges of building the world’s premier space telescope and why it’s all worth it. Webb is the first telescope of its kind, an unprecedented feat of engineering, and is at the very leading edge of technological innovation and development. Webb will find the first galaxies that formed in the early universe and peer through dusty clouds to see stars forming planetary systems.

According to DigitalTrends.com, NASA is striking up deals with other countries to support efforts to send more humans into space. The American space agency has recently signed a deal with the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in order to advance human space travel. It’s not yet entirely clear what the joint letter entails in terms of cooperation between the two space agencies, but speculation suggests that astronauts from the Middle Eastern nation will be able to board American space missions. https://www.digitaltrends.com/cool-tech/nasa-uae-partnership/ http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com
