Veel van wat er afgelopen week gebeurde rond het ISS waren acties van SpaceX. Een Cargo Dragon  vertrok, een Crew Dragon verplaatste zich. Allemaal in het teken van de komst van de eerste bemande Starliner. Voor Boeing wordt dit een meer dan belangrijke vlucht, ook al omwille van wat er met Starliner in het verleden gebeurd is.

En er is de Orion-capsule waarmee NASA zijn astronauten richting Maan wil sturen. Er waren – zo bleek na de eerste vlucht – problemen met het hitteschild en dat is nog altijd niet opgelost, laat staan begrepen. En de Maan ? China lanceerde zopas een nieuwe onbemande maansonde, eentje die op de achterkant van de Maan nabij de zuidpool een bodemmonster gaat ophalen.

Dat en nog veel meer in het Nieuws Uit De Ruimtevaart van deze week

Bij de foto: Butch Wilmore en Suni Williams waren zaterdag 4 mei getuige van het uitrollen van de Atlas V die “hun” Starliner-capsule naar de ruimte moet sturen. De lancering van de allereerste bemande Starliner moet normaal gezien dinsdagochtend om 4u34 plaatsvinden. Foto: NASA / Joel Kowky.
