Nieuws Uit De Ruimtevaart – Week 2022/18–598

Drie lanceringen en 86 nieuwe satellieten. Drie astronauten keren terug van het ruimtestation, China maakt zich klaar voor een volgend hoofdstuk van hun ruimtestation. En verder aftellen naar de lancering van Starliner OFT-2 en een nieuwe WDR-poging voor het SLS.

Maar deze NUDR heeft ook een hele verzameling artikels uit de voorbije maand over (allerlei) satellietconstellaties, satellite servicing (zoals het bijtanken van satellieten) maar ook over het bouwen ervan in de ruimte, over ruimteafval en duurzame ruimtevaart. En het militaire in de ruimtevaart ontbreekt dezer dagen niet.

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