This marks the beginning for people like us, flying to space. Yes, you read that right! Now, with the growing ambitions and accomplishments of SpaceX, it has become possible for civilians to get a chance to live the dream of visiting space. SpaceX has proved with examples, over time, that they can successfully take up numerous space missions with perfect launches and landings. Additionally, with NASA's approval, not just cargo but humans can also take a seat in the crafts going to space. One such mission is Inspiration4. Read ahead to learn everything about this mission.

One of the expected advantages of SuperBIT is that it will be immune to weather fluctuations because it would be located in the stratosphere, 40 kilometres above the Earth. Most of the weather events take place in the troposphere layer of the Earth's atmosphere. The primary goal of this telescope will be to capture high-resolution pictures of objects in space.

What do we know about satellite imagery? The most basic definition of satellite imagery is that it is a mechanism by which we receive photos of the Earth taken from space with the help of certain technology. These satellites are like eyes in the sky. With the advent of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), satellite imagery has evolved into something far more exciting and valuable.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly vital in space operations and exploration, from evaluating the landscape on Mars to boosting communications between satellites and ground stations. It has a capacity that has a plethora of uses and holds enormous potential for the data-dense and complex environment of space.

According to NASA classification, a small sat launcher (small-lift vehicle) is a class of rocket orbital launch vehicle capable of lifting up to 2000 kg (4,400 lbs.) of payload into low Earth orbit. The Sputnik 1, the first small-lift launch vehicle, was developed by the Soviet Union, and it was successfully launched on October 4, 1957, into the Low Earth Orbit.

The discovery by Galileo of four brilliant moons circling Jupiter in 1610 shattered the long-standing belief that all celestial bodies revolved around the Earth, which had been maintained for centuries prior. The Europa Clipper spacecraft, which is scheduled for launch in 2024, is expected to discover data that will profoundly change our view of the solar system.

One of the exciting industries for consumers is the combination of space and tourism. Over the years of science and technology development in history, scientists and researchers have made space travel possible for consumers other than astronauts. As a kid, everyone would dream of what space looks like outside their science textbooks, and a few privately-owned companies have taken a step forward to explore more about space —one of them being- Blue Origin, owned by Jeff Bezos.

Space - a boundless extension and humans are well capable of doing business anywhere in the universe. Space travel has been an exclusive province of astronauts and animals (as a specimen) for the past few decades. Thanks to visionaries and emerging technologies, multi-planetary life is now a possibility — a breakthrough. What will you call an industry that is not limited to a state, country, continent, or even the planet? Rather than defining it as an industry, we can call it a medium of commerce where humans conduct business. Why wait? Take a look at the economy and initiatives to increase growth and opportunities for various industries.

Every 26 months, there is an alignment of the Earth and Mars. As a result, travel time and cost are reduced, allowing probes to complete the interplanetary journey in about six months. Space agencies tend to launch investigations during these conjunctions, the most recent in the summer of 2020. Three countries sent spacecraft to Mars during this period: on July 20, 2020, the Emirates United Arabs launched the Hope probe, which will orbit Mars to study its atmosphere and weather conditions; China, which launched the Tianwen-1 probe on July 23; and the United States, which launched the Perseverance rover on July 30.

The Perseverance Rover happens to be the most expensive and upgraded mobile laboratory sent on a Mars mission ever. This initiative aims to find evidence of life on Mars and go even beyond that to have a better understanding of the continuously expanding universe. Also, the Rover is supposed to throw light on the future of both manned and unmanned missions to the red planet.

The James Webb Space Telescope, also referred to as Webb or JWST, is a massive space-based observatory tuned for infrared wavelengths to complement and expand the Hubble Space Telescope's findings. It will cover a broader range of wavelengths and have much better sensitivity. Webb can now scan further back in time to locate the earliest galaxies that formed in the early Universe, as well as gaze within dust clouds where stars and planetary systems are developing today.

SpaceX has set a lofty goal of landing the first humans on Mars by 2024. However, in October 2020, Elon Musk set 2024 as the deadline for an unmanned launch. At the Axel Springer Award 2020, Elon Musk seemed very confident about the first crewed trips to Mars scheduled in 2026. SpaceX's Starship, a fully reusable super-heavy lift launch vehicle, has been under construction since 2018. The Starship will be a crucial component of the mission. The spacecraft would first enter Earth's orbit to carry a huge payload; it would be refuelled before heading to Mars. The spaceship would be loaded with locally manufactured propellants after landing on Mars to return to Earth.

There has been a consistent burning curiosity behind the answers for these questions that has formed the crux of major space explorations for more than a century. Ever since the Soviets launched Sputnik 1, the first artificial satellite, into space in 1957, space explorations have become a major area of research. Post Sputnik 1, the U.S. launched Explorer 1 in 1958, and from then on commenced a series of spaceflights, from the Vostok series to the Apollo series, and satellite launches to discover the further marvels of space.
