European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut Sophie Adenot recently offered... a rare peek into life aboard the International Space Station (ISS). In a video shared on Instagram, Adenot demonstrated her yin yoga routine in microgravity, showing online users what it takes to find balance while floating in space. Fans quickly flooded the comment section, with one user describing it as "magically elegant". For Adenot, practising yoga has been an integral part of her daily life for years on Earth, a habit she has successfully adapted to low-Earth orbit. Read more:show more

NOAA's space weather model for the 8.1 X-Flare CME.... It's very slow, not that dense, and not directly aimed at Earth. If in the next few days something BIG does launch towards Earth, some of this plasma here will be "swept up" and strengthen the EMP effect upon impactshow more

"Automate Earth, Enable Space" Over the last two weeks,... we've explored how robotics can transform the terra-space industry. We're incredibly grateful to Meagan Murphy Crawford , Jim Thomas , and Sean D. Graham for introducing us to key industry leaders and facilitating our tour of the US Space Force facility at Cape Canaveral. With a deeper understanding of the space sector’s needs, we see a growing opportunity for Earth-based robotics to play a pivotal role in supporting space advancements. The intersection of robotics and space is not just a possibility; it’s essential for the future of both industries. #RoboticsForSpace #TerraSpace #AutomateEarth #FutureOfSpace #InnovationInAction #Robotics NVIDIA Roboticsshow more

The widely anticipated launch of the SpaceX/NASA Crew-10 mission... from the Kennedy Space Center has been scrubbed in the last minutes before launch due to a hydraulics issue with the ground equipment. The mission was set to finally allow the return of two astronauts, Barry “Butch” Wilmore and Sunita “Suni” Williams. The two astronauts have been in space at the International Space Station (ISS) for more than nine months after Boeing’s Starliner was deemed too unsafe to bring them home due to issues with the thrusters and was returned to Earth uncrewed. The next launch window will likely be tomorrow, with the astronauts returning home Friday hopefully.show more

🇺🇸🇮🇳 SPACEX ROLLS OUT FALCON-9 FOR HISTORIC INDIAN ASTRONAUT... LAUNCH The Dragon spacecraft that will carry Indian astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla to the ISS is now on the launch pad, locked and loaded atop SpaceX’s reusable Falcon-9. Shukla, trained by SpaceX and Axiom Space, will supervise launch and docking. The Dragon flies fully autonomous, no human intervention needed. But Shukla’s mission is bigger than the checklist. Shukla: “I carry not just technical equipment but the hopes and dreams of 1.7 billion Indians. I will be conducting 7 scientific experiments that could contribute significantly to our understanding of microgravity and pave the way for future space research. In many ways, I see myself as a bridge between Earth and space, and I’m proud to carry artifacts designed by the National Institute of Design, symbolizing India's creativity and innovation Even stars are attainable.” Source: India Today, Britannicashow more

STARMIND sounds like something from a sci-fi movie. Naturally,... SpaceX set its mind to make it real. Starlink connects the world from space. STARMIND would run AI from space. Solar-powered orbital compute, laser-linked satellites, and eventually a massive xAI network above Earth. Starlink's wi-fi connection went into orbit first. Now the xAI brain wants a launch window.
