"What if we are alone in the universe?" Thank you all for coming to our philosophy social! It was great to hear your thoughts on the Fermi Paradox, Kardashev Scale, Great Filter, and more. See you at the next event! @UCL #space #philosophy #astrobiology #humanity #future #UCL

Whether Russia leaves the ISS in 2024 or 2030, this announcement is indicative of two increasing trends: (1) the commercialization of space, which is enabling the U.S. to plan for a transition towards commercial space stations, marking an end to the ISS era... (1/3)
Despite the headlines, NASA officials said this morning they have heard nothing from their Russian counterparts about ending ISS cooperation after 2024. “Anybody who thinks that there is a different plan, you’re wrong. We’re going to 2030.”

As we were about to dock into the ISS, I saw this amazing view from the window of the Soyuz, right next to my seat. I couldn't help but say 'Wow!' and I straight away took out my iPhone to take this photo. I mean, isn't it amazing!? This is real!!!

Today in history | This classic photograph of the Earth, known as "Blue Marble," was taken on Dec. 7, 1972, by the crew of Apollo 17 as they traveled toward the moon. No human since has been far enough from Earth to photograph a whole-Earth image.

21 years with an unbroken streak of human presence on @Space_Station today. Humbled and privileged to have been a part of this accomplishment. The power of what we can do together will never be lost on me.

This planet is an incredible gift, but we must do our part to protect it. I am hopeful this next decade of private space travel will help shift our perspective in that direction.

The crew of #Inspiration4 had an incredible first day in space! They’ve completed more than 15 orbits around planet Earth since liftoff and made full use of the Dragon cupola.

Anti-satellite weapons create space debris and threaten access to Low Earth Orbit. The International Open Letter on Kinetic Anti-Satellite Testing urges the #UNGA to take up consideration of a kinetic ASAT test ban treaty. You can sign the letter here: https://t.co/3krTCiO5ZM
