Nieuws Uit De Ruimtevaart – Week 2022/28–608

Zes lanceringen, het was weer een drukke week. Met de lancering van de eerste Vega-C als uitschieter. China kijkt uit naar de lancering van een nieuwe module voor het ruimtestation. En terwijl de lancering van SLS naderbij komt, en CAPSTONE nog steeds op weg is naar de Maan lijken er andere problemen op te duiken voor het Amerikaanse maanprogramma. Met de (financiële) moeilijkheden voor Masten Space Systems en hun vlucht in kader van NASA’s CLPS-contract. En één jaar na de vlucht van Branson is het eens interessant om terug te kijken op één jaar ruimtetoerisme. En tussendoor werd het hoofd van het Russische ruimtevaartagentschap ontslagen, 

O ja, en de eerste foto’s van de James Webb Space Telescope zijn binnen. Maar dat zal wel niemand gemist hebben :-)

Dat en nog veel meer uit het Nieuws Uit De Ruimtevaart.
