The calm before the storm. We are stepping into the first multi-engine Reaver tests this week. Each Reaver engine generates over 41,000 lbf of thrust. We’re starting with two engines and the integration team already has the next two ready to fill out the Reaver Quad!

We're making good progress! Last month, ispace's avionics team, who look after the lander's electronic systems, successfully completed Thermal Vacuum Testing. The objective of the test is to verify thermal stability and if a unit will behave in space as predicted. (1/4)

For the 1st time, water vapor has been detected by @NASAHubble in the atmosphere of an exoplanet in the "habitable zone". K2-18b is the only known #exoplanet to have both water and temperatures that could support life. 📸 ESA/Hubble, M.Kornmesser #Hubble #NASA #WaterVapor

Smallsats launch market forecasted by @preciouspayload. Interesting to see how the market will behave between responsive launch (ex. @RocketLab / @Virgin_Orbit) and cheaper heavy-rocket strategies (ex. #Starship / #NewGlenn). Very low cost launch will be the game changer.

Vikram lander's failure reminds us that space is hard. Nevertheless the orbiter is performing its mission with the major part of experiences. Not a failure at all. Keep going @isro ! #Chandrayaan2 #India #MoonLanding #VikramLander

Arctic will be the first place to receive OneWeb's megaconstellation broadband services in 2020. OneWeb’s satellites operate in polar orbits so their coverage is more concentrated at the poles. 48% of the Arctic will be provided by "fiber-like internet". #Arctic #OneWeb

Breathtaking footage from satellite demonstration DoT-1 by @SurreySat. It was acquired in LEO orbit for the 1st time by a commercial, off-the-shelf, Raspberry Pi camera. DoT-1 satellite is to demonstrate SSTL’s new Core Data Handling System (Core-DHS). #RaspberryPi #Earth #SSTL

Mars Solar conjunction is happening (from Aug. 28 to Sept. 7). Every 2 years, Mars is in the opposite side of the Sun from the Earth. Solar gas can interfere with radio signals with Mars. So, a hold on issuing commands is running during the conjunction. #Mars #Sun #Conjunction
