SPACE STATION

China is looking ahead to the future of its space program as it celebrates 10 years of manned spaceflight.

Two veteran spacefarers, Scott Kelly and Mikhail Kornienko, have been selected by NASA, the Russian Federal Space Agency (Roscosmos) and their international partners for a yearlong mission aboard the International Space Station in 2015. The mission will include collecting scientific data important to future human exploration of our solar system.

China is preparing to launch a manned space flight to an orbiting space laboratory in the middle of this month, according to state media reports and China's human spaceflight agency.

Space Exploration Technologies Corp. has become the first non-governmental agency to fly to the International Space Station and dock with orbiting laboratory.

An unmanned European supply vessel carrying more than six tonnes of freight docked with the International Space Station (ISS) on Wednesday reinforcing Europe's role in the functioning of the ISS, space officials said.

NASA released a stunning image of Earth, shot from the International Space Station (ISS) when it flew roughly 240 miles overhead, capturing the dazzling city lights of Europe at night.

A government-issued decree is the first published announcement that China intends to land an astronaut on the moon, a place where no one has stood in almost 40 years.

A Russian Spaceship with a Russian and American crew launched for the space station Monday morning.

On Wednesday morning, an unmanned Russian freighter makes cargo deliveries aboard the International Space Station. Among other needed supplies for astronauts in orbit, the spacecraft also delivered the first iPads to ever fly in space.

This week, China has plans to launch its first prototype of a future space station. Being the third nation to send a person to space, China leaves the rest of the world anxious for their launch event.

The Russian Space Agency on Tuesday announced that it is postponing the launch of the latest space station crew to Nov. 12. This gives NASA reasons to worry, since the situation is such that NASA itself has no space shuttles to take the astronauts to the International Space Station, and it relies completely on Russia for the same.

When a Russian rocket failed on its way to orbit last month, it exposed a vulnerability in the International Space Station program that a former NASA astronaut thinks China could help address.

A spaceship funded by Internet billionaire, Jeff Bezos, the chief executive of Amazon.com, crashed during a test flight in West Texas.

Space debris has touched the “tipping point,” as per a report released by the National Research Council, which appealed to NASA to find methods of monitoring in a better manner as well as cleaning up the orbiting junk which could be ominous for active satellites and manned spacecraft.

A malfunctioning gas generator in the Soyuz carrier rocket's third stage engine has been identified by members of the emergency commission as the reason a supply ship didn't make it to the International Space Station, Federal Space Agency (Roscosmos) spokesman Alexei Kuznetsov told the Itar-Tass on Monday.

U.S. and Russian space agency officials are considering temporarily pulling astronauts off of the International Space Station, The Wall Street Journal reports Monday, following last week's failure of an unmanned cargo mission to the international space station.

An unmanned Russian spacecraft carrying three tons of food, fuel and water for the International Space Station crashed about five minutes after it was launched, NASA officials said Wednesday.

A Russian spacecraft carrying three tons of food, fuel and water for the International Space Station broke down about five minutes after it blasted off on Wednesday.

A Russian spacecraft bringing supplies to astronauts at the International Space Station failed to reach orbit and crashed on Wednesday, a failure which will not affect the astronauts intended to receive the cargo.

Energia, the designer and manufacturer of Soyuz manned spaceships, is planning a commercial flight either directly to the moon or to dock first with the International Space Station (ISS) and later pay a visit to the moon.

Plans have just been unveiled in Moscow for the first ever space hotel that will we be perched 217 miles above the Earth.
