Omwille van het JVS/VVS Weekend van de Vereniging Voor Sterrenkunde is deze NUDR een beetje vroeger dan normaal. Dat betekent ook dat de lanceringen van vrijdag 6 oktober niet zijn opgenomen. Ook het traditionele "Nieuws uit de (inter)planetaire ruimte" is naar volgende aflevering verschoven. Maar er is meer dan genoeg te lezen in deze aflevering. Zo wil blijkbaar niet alleen iedereen naar de Maan maar ook ruimtestations blijven populair. Er is nog het ISS, en de plannen met commerciële ruimtestations consolideren zich een beetje, China wil zijn ruimtestation drastisch uitbreiden en ook India wil er eentje. En zoals steeds is er ook nu nog veel meer te lezen in het Nieuws Uit De Ruimtevaart, ook deze week.
