The first hot firing of Ariane 6’s Vulcain 2.1 main engine was performed in January 2018 at the DLR German Aerospace Center test facility in Lampoldshausen, Germany.
The engine, developed by ArianeGroup, has a simplified and more robust nozzle, a gas generator made through additive manufacturing, and an oxygen heater for oxygen tank pressurisation. These features lower the cost of the engine and simplify manufacturing.
Space vous emmène à Cologne découvrir la réplique terrestre de Columbus. Entretien avec des chercheurs et des astronautes.
Ce mois-ci, Space vous emmène au Centre Européen des Astronautes à Cologne, en Allemagne à la découverte de Columbus, le module européen de la Station spatiale internationale. Pendant ces dix dernières années il a été utilisé par les astronautes pour réaliser des expériences sur eux-mêmes, faire pousser des plantes et même développer de nouveaux métaux. Il y a dix ans, Columbus a pris une navette pour l’espace. Le premier laboratoire européen vola en orbite et fut soigneusement amarré à la Station Spatiale Internationale.
O módulo Columbus na Estação Espacial Internacional é a contribuição da Europa para o laboratório de investigação em órbita. Nos últimos dez anos, foi utilizado por astronautas para cultivar plantas, desenvolver novos metais e até para realizar experiências em si mesmos.
Bem-vindos a Space aqui no Centro Europeu de Astronautas em Colónia.
Este mês, debruçamo-nos sobre o módulo Columbus na Estação Espacial Internacional, o centro científico da Europa no espaço.
Nos últimos 10 anos tem sido utilizado por astronautas para realizar experiências em si mesmos, cultivar plantas e até mesmo desenvolver novos metais. Vamos descobrir mais.
Há dez anos, o Columbus apanhou uma boleia de foguetão para o espaço.
O primeiro laboratório em órbita da Europa foi cuidadosamente agregado à Estação Espacial Internacional.
Está situado en la Estación Espacial Internacional (ISS) y los astronautas lo emplean para cultivar plantas, desarrollar nuevos materiales e influso para experimentar sobre sí mismos.
El módulo Columbus de la Estación Espacial Internacional que se encuentra en el Centro Europeo de Astronautas en Colonia es una réplica del laboratorio espacial europeo en órbita. El de Colonia se emplea como módulo de entrenamiento.
Columbus lleva 10 años en el espacio y los astronautas lo usan para llevar a cabo todo tipo de experimentos: cultivar plantas, desarrollar nuevos metales e incluso experimentar diferentes variables sobre ellos mismos.
Fue puesto en órbita el 7 de febrero de 2008 y fue acoplado cuidadosamente a la Estación Espacial Internacional.

NOVA has teamed up with Cook’s Illustrated to cook up a recipe for stars and black holes – a culinary “course” on how the most mysterious objects in the universe are created.
In episode #313 of Science Goes to the Movies, author and cosmologist Janna Levin joins the show to talk about mathematics in movies like “The Man Who Knew Infinity”—about the life and work of famous mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan. Levin shares what it was that drove her to write her two books, “How the Universe Got its Spots and Black Hole Blues,” about Kip Thorne’s wild ambition to record the sound of two black holes colliding. She explains the spirit of generosity that compels scientific research and how a mathematical proof can transcend argument. Also included: Levin’s assessment of how black holes are depicted in the film, “Interstellar,” given the fact that no one has ever seen one.

For many years scientists have been working to simulate human perception and human actions in machines. The aim: artificial intelligence. But if artificial intelligence is already superior to people in some areas, what role will we then still play in the future? And how can we trust these systems if today’s computers are susceptible to viruses and hacking? Check out latest video to find out more about.

Have you ever done a science experiment and wondered “What would this be like if it were HUGE?” Welcome to Science Max, the exciting new series that turbocharges all the science experiments you’ve done at home.
Dans cette édition de Space, nous entrons dans les coulisses d’un chantier colossal au Centre spatial européen de Kourou en Guyane française. Un pas de tir est en train de sortir de terre en vue du vol inaugural d’Ariane 6 programmé en juillet 2020. Grâce à ce projet, l’Europe se relance dans la compétition mondiale qui oppose les acteurs du secteur spatial.
Sur la côte nord-est de l’Amérique du Sud, à Kourou en Guyane, des ingénieurs européens s’affairent à la construction du nouveau pas de tir d’Ariane 6. Ce chantier colossal doit répondre à un objectif simple : diviser par deux, les coûts de lancement par rapport à son modèle précédent. Pour y parvenir, il faut d’abord une quantité astronomique de béton, d’acier et de main-d’oeuvre.
The race is on to build the new launch pad for the Ariane 6 rocket, due to make its maiden voyage in July 2020. Construction is in full swing in French Guiana as Europe builds not only a new rocket but also a new way of launching rockets, in a bid to face down competition from the likes of Space X.
When Euronews visited, around 500 people were active on the site from six in the morning until ten at night, with attention focused on two key elements of the pad – firstly the huge flame trench which will take the hot gases away from the rocket on launch, and the new building in which the Ariane 6 will be built.
El Puerto Espacial Europeo en la Guyana francesa, está en plena efervescencia. Estamos en medio de una gigantesca obra. Aquí se sitúa la nueva plataforma de lanzamiento de Ariane 6, cuyo despegue está previsto en julio de 2020. Intentamos averigurar qué se necesita para mantenerse a la vanguardia en el negocio del espacio.
Amanece en Guyana y los ingenieros europeos se afanan en la construcción del terminal de lanzamiento de Ariane 6. Esta gigantesca obra tiene un único objetivo: lanzar cohetes al espacio por un coste, dos veces inferior al de Ariane 5. Para lograrlo se necesita un montón de hormigón, de acero y de mano de obra.
ESA is taking advantage of Novespace’s latest ‘Zero-G’ aircraft to perform a number of experiments in microgravity. Twelve experiments – which include six by professional scientists and six by students as part of ESA’s Fly Your Thesis programme – took to the skies for three series of 31 parabolas off the coast of France. Conditions of microgravity, or weightlessness, are unique for research ranging from fundamental physics, testing Einstein’s weak equivalence principle, to psychology, neuroscience and the deployment of a balloon that may one day make measurements while falling through Mars’ atmosphere.
