  • NASA’s SpaceX Crew-9 Post-Flight News Conference

    NASA’s SpaceX Crew-9 Post-Flight News Conference

    After completing a long-duration stay aboard the International Space Station, NASA’s SpaceX Crew-9 astronauts — Nick Hague, Suni Williams, and Butch Wilmore — are discussing their scientific mission to space.

    The three NASA crew members and Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov returned to Earth on March 18. Gorbunov will not participate in the news conference because of his travel schedule.

    Hague, Williams, and Wilmore completed over 900 hours of research while in orbit, conducting more than 150 unique experiments. The crew studied plant growth and development, tested stem cell technology to help patients on Earth, and went on a spacewalk to collect samples from the station’s exterior, studying the survivability of microorganisms in space. Additionally, the crew supported 30 ham radio events with students worldwide and conducted a student-led genetic experiment, helping to inspire the next generation of explorers.

  • Becoming a planetary explorer with Matthias Maurer | Space Bites

    Becoming a planetary explorer with Matthias Maurer | Space Bites

    We are training astronauts to explore the lunar surface, collect samples, perform experiments and create an outpost in order to live and work on the Moon. But how will future lunar exploration differ from how Apollo astronauts explored and worked on the Moon?

    Our astronaut Matthias Maurer talks of the challenging training he went through during the new episode of Space Bites.

    Space Bites hosts the best talks on space exploration from the most inspiring and knowledgeable speakers from the field. Held at the technical heart of the European Space Agency in The Netherlands, the lectures illustrate the challenges of space.

  • How to survive on another planet with Lucie Poulet | Space Bites

    How to survive on another planet with Lucie Poulet | Space Bites

    Plans for human space exploration in the next decades are to leave Earth orbit and go to destinations such as the Moon and Mars. But what are the challenges associated with human survival in space and what kind of research is needed to address these challenges?

    Life-support systems expert Lucie Poulet participated in four Mars analogue missions as a crew member and has over eight years of experience working on regenerative life-support systems with various groups such as the Micro-Ecological Life-Support System Alternative (MELiSSA) project and the German Aerospace Center, DLR, in Bremen, Germany.

    Thomas Pesquet: Post-flight press conference (in French)

    Replay of the press conference (in French) with ESA astronaut Thomas Pesquet held at the European Astronaut Centre in Cologne, Germany, on 6 June 2017. Thomas returned to Earth on 2 June 2017 after completion of his six-month Proxima mission to the International Space Station.

    Thomas took part in more than 60 experiments during his mission. His experiments are helping to understand the human brain, ocean currents and radiation in space, how atoms behave and tested new spacecraft materials. Other highlights included his two spacewalks to improve and maintain the Space Station.

  • Space debris – a journey to Earth

    Space debris – a journey to Earth

    Space debris – a journey to Earth takes the audience on a journey from the outer solar system back to our home planet. The objects encountered along the way are manmade. Originally designed to explore the universe, these are now a challenge for modern space flight. An estimated number of 700,000 objects larger than 1 cm and 170 million objects larger than 1mm are expected to reside in Earth orbits.

    The video gives a closer look at the different regions used for space flight and explains how mitigation and removal measures could preserve future usage of these orbits.

    Produced for the 7th European Conference on Space Debris, 18-21 April 2017.

    A 3D stereoscopic version of this video is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzrMHWjQCtc

    Tim’s first news conference back on Earth

    The first news conference with ESA astronaut Tim Peake on return to Earth after spending 186 days in space on the International Space Station on his Principia mission.

    The media event was held at ESA’s astronaut centre in Cologne, Germany, 21 July just three days after landing on Earth. The European Astronaut Centre is the home base of all ESA astronauts

    Tim Peake, NASA astronaut Tim Kopra and commander Yuri Malenchenko landed in the steppe of Kazakhstan on Saturday, 18 June in their Soyuz TMA-19M spacecraft.

    The landing brings Tim Peake’s Principia mission to an end but the research continues. Tim is the eighth ESA astronaut to complete a long-duration mission in space. He is the third after Alexander Gerst and Andreas Mogensen to fly directly to the European Astronaut Centre for medical checks and for researchers to collect more data on how Tim’s body and mind have adapted to living in space.

    NASA News Conference on Completion of COTS Program

    NASA Administrator Charles Bolden discusses the success of the agency’s Commercial Orbital Transportation Services (COTS) initiative during a televised news briefing at NASA Headquarters. Through COTS, NASA’s partners Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (SpaceX) and Orbital Sciences Corp., developed new U.S. rockets and spacecraft, launched from U.S. soil, capable of transporting cargo to low-Earth orbit and the International Space Station. A successful Orbital Sciences demonstration mission to the space station was completed in October, signifying the end of COTS development. SpaceX made its first trip to the space station in May 2012 and completed its COTS partnership with NASA the same year. The agency now contracts space station cargo resupply missions with both companies.

    The briefing participants were:

    — Charles Bolden, NASA Administrator
    — Alan Lindenmoyer, Manager of Commercial Crew and Cargo Program, NASA
    — Gwynne Shotwell, President, SpaceX
    — Frank Culbertson, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Orbital Sciences Advanced Programs Group

  • NASA’s Dawn Defines Vesta’s Role in Solar System History

    NASA’s Dawn Defines Vesta’s Role in Solar System History

    During a NASA Television Science briefing, scientists discussed the findings of the first global analysis of the giant asteroid Vesta by NASA’s Dawn spacecraft. The Dawn mission has confirmed Vesta’s status as a special fossil of the early solar system and revealed a more varied, diverse world than originally thought. Dawn has shown Vesta is the only known intact, layered planetary building block with an iron core surviving from the earliest days of the solar system. It therefore more closely resembles a small planet or Earth’s moon, not another asteroid.

    NASA’s MRO Sees Possible Martian Water Flows

    Observations from NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, MRO, have revealed possible flowing water during the warmest months on Mars. Scientists discuss the findings at a NASA Headquarters news briefing held August 4, 2011.
    Dark, finger-like features appear and extend down some Martian slopes during late spring through summer, fade in winter, and return during the next spring. Repeated observations have tracked the seasonal changes in these recurring features on several steep slopes in the middle latitudes of Mars’ southern hemisphere.

    NASA’s Kepler Finds Its First “Goldilocks” Candidates

    NASA’s Kepler Mission has discovered 54 planet candidates that orbit in the habitable zone of their host star; this so-called “Goldilocks” region is “not too hot or too cold, but just right” for the possible existence of liquid water on the surface of a planet. Four of those candidates are near Earth-sized planets in orbit around small, cool stars. The findings, discussed at a news conference held Feb. 2 at NASA Headquarters in Washington, are based on data collected by the space telescope between May and September, 2009. Ground-based observatories will be used this spring and summer to help determine if these candidates can be validated as planets.
