Landing science on the Moon, demonstrating quiet supersonic aircraft, and launching two new Earth climate satellites, plus a mission to Europa, one of Jupiter's icy moons, are just a FEW of the milestones we have planned for 2024.To paraphrase what I last wrote in NASA looks ahead to 2023, here's to 2024 being another great year in space! If everything NASA plans happens, to say nothing of all the rest of the world's space agencies and companies like SpaceX, it will be.
Speaking of the world's space agencies, the European Space Agency is looking even farther ahead in ESA’s future of space travel.
For 40 years, ESA has been shaping the future in space, while delivering crucial access to space for Europe. That work continues, as brand-new rockets are set to take flight: some reusable, some carbon-neutral, with hybrid propulsion, two and three stages, small, large, crewed and uncrewed, to Earth orbit and deep space, the journey continues.This Crazy Eddie approves.
All of these missions are currently in development in Europe and will ensure our continued ability to explore beyond our own home, while looking back to learn more about it.
This, is the future of space exploration.
