(named for American astronautAlan Shepard). With its bullet-shaped fuselage, New Shepard takes off and lands vertically, in contrast to the mother-ship deployment of SpaceShipTwo. New Shepard made its first flight on July 20, 2021, with a crew of Bezos; his brother Mark; American pilotWally...
Launch vehicles that can take off from and land on runways have long been a dream for space engineers and enthusiasts, but have never gotten off the ground. John Hollaway describes why they remain essential and how they might be developed.Monday, May 13, 2024 Review: Alien Earths Astronomers...
Humans naturally exhale this colorless gas, but breathing in too much of it is hazardous to your health. On Earth that usually isn't a problem because plants absorb CO2. Yet gardening space is limited on the ISS, which forced engineers to devise other means of removing excess carbon dioxide...

Musk has said SpaceX intends to use the Starbase facility in Texas as a test site for the Starship program. The company is building a second Starship launch pad at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, with plans to construct more launch sites in the future, eventually building up to ...
The VFX team on “Alien: Romulus” needed to know early on what the overall look would be so they could begin building digital environments during the shoot, which helped inform the mood, lighting, and camera movement choices on set. Special effects needed to know where and how to operate ...
