This webinar is part of a series preparing the upcoming SG2021 event, and will allow event’s participants and other participants to start thinking about the different topics and challenges that will be tackled during the day.ĭr Lucie Campagnolo is project manager at MEDES, the Institute for Space Medicine and Physiology. The participants will then be able to ask their questions to the experts, followed by an interactive activity in teams on the theme of the Future of the International Space Station!

This webinar aims at introducing the key question that will be studied during the SG2021 event next month in workshop sessions: how to diversify the ISS activities to create opportunities for non-space sectors from 2025-2030? To find elements of answers for this wide question, the various domains that will be considered during the SG2021’s workshop are physical science and technology, life science and biology, space accessibility and space art and culture.įor this webinar, the participants will attend 3 speeches which are: But, due to their new ambitions, and with private businesses starting making their way in the station, things will change. Until now, and likely until the mid 2020s, space agencies and mostly NASA, were its contributors. The future of the ISS is pending on its investors. “It was certainly a great way to bond as a crew, starting off with our very first workday in space,” Vande Hei broadcast to Mission Control.Īccording to NASA, there are approximately 20,000 pieces of space junk orbiting the globe, among them old satellites that have broken up.Last year, the 20th anniversary of the greatest international project of all time – the International Space Station (ISS) – was celebrated! Twenty years of ongoing human presence in space, of scientific research in a unique microgravity environment and twenty years of acquired experience to deal with future human space explorations… But after all of this, what is next? NASA astronaut Mark Vande Hei, who is in the middle of a yearlong assignment, called it “a crazy but well-coordinated day.” Space junk is threatening the seven astronauts aboard the International Space Station and forcing them to seek shelter in their docked capsules. The Russian Space Agency tweeted earlier in the day that the crew was told to return to their docked capsules in case the station was severely damaged and they had to jettison back into space. There are currently four Americans, two Russians and one German on board. The crew, including four who arrived on the space station Thursday, have been forced to set aside science research and other projects while they ride out the threat. The US Space Command said the station’s seven crew members were told to prepare in case they get hit by orbiting debris that is coming “uncomfortably” close over the next few days.
