[KeplerSpaceUniversity @KeplerUni]

Kepler Space University is pleased to announce the relaunch of the Space Scholars Program as a mission-based scholarship pathway for emerging space leaders. Join Space Scholars Crew-8!

Through the Space Scholars Program, selected students can pursue graduate studies at KSU while contributing to approved service activities in research, outreach, education, student engagement, and mission-aligned initiatives that support the future of space.

Space Scholars contribute approximately 5–15 hours per week through approved activities connected to KSU’s mission. Each scholarship award permits the Awardee to enroll in a graduate studies program at KSU upon payment of a $700 program fee per semester of enrolment, plus the $150 Library fee for each semester. The registration fee is waived for Awardees of the Space Scholars Program.

This program is designed for students who want to study, serve, lead, and help shape the future of humanity in space.

Apply today: https://t.co/a3SdPh0Sl8
Deadline: August 21, 2026

New Issue of the Journal of Space Philosophy

In this issue of the Journal of Space Philosophy, Bryant Cruse explores how the existence of open frontiers, such as the western frontier in the United States, shapes human cultures, and he then applies his conclusions to space. Sylvester Kaczmarek examines ways to construct trustworthy autonomous AI systems to detect anomalies and threats in cislunar space. He argues that a synthesis of philosophy and engineering can promote adaptive, secure computation that safeguards humanity’s stellar future. Annette Mercedes discusses ways that reproductive rights could be protected or compromised in future space habitats, arguing that reproduction is both an ethical and a political concern. She cautions against replicating existing governance models, which may reinforce colonialism or patriarchy, advocating instead for justice-centered policies in future space habitats. Nick Nielsen examines the place of prayerful attitudes in infrastructure planning and development, especially in the light of the future space exploration, development, and settlement. Finally, Yug Raman Srivastava and Heather Allansdottir explore legal issues in temporal sovereignty, particularly in situations in which parties to contracts are on different planets and therefore have days of different lengths and no common calendars. Again, they raise concerns about colonialism and the dangers of applying terrestrial clocks and calendars to other locations where they do not fit.

We continue to seek articles for next year’s issues. Please send abstracts for consideration by February 1 or August 1 to Jason Batt at [email protected] or submit online by visiting: https://t.co/sPAAOAjYAf We will need the finished articles by March 1 or September 1.

This year’s final simulated trip to Mars is underway!

Four volunteers stepped inside the tiny HERA habitat yesterday to live & work like astronauts for 45 days, helping @NASA study the effects of isolation & confinement on crews during deep-space missions.

Best of luck, HERA crew!

Athletes from across the world are gathering today to kick off the 2024 #Olympics – pushing boundaries and inspiring generations. If you were an Olympic athlete, which sport would you play?

"That's one small step for [a] man, one giant leap for mankind."

#Apollo11 astronaut Buzz Aldrin's iconic bootprint on the Moon's surface inspires to look ahead to the next giant leap: Sending the next astronauts back to the Moon on our #Artemis missions.

[NASA History Office @NASAhistory]

One of the great successes of @NASAJPL's early days, Mariner IV was humanity's first spacecraft to fly past the Red Planet #OnThisDay in 1965.

The 22 images it took as it passed captured 1% of the planet's surface and took a week to transmit back to Earth.

100% power Aeon R full engine test, right out of the gate on our Block 2 engine iteration 😎 this one is 268,000 pound thrust vs 258,000 before, +many design upgrades. Block 3 is being built in the factory now. Extreme iteration speed for our reusable Terran R rocket 🦾🇺🇸 @relativityspace

Sometimes you have to have a little fun in space and take advantage of microgravity!

[ESA Technology @ESA_Tech]

Arthur C Clarke was right?

Rotating spacecraft making artificial gravity – like the Discovery mission in 2001:A Space Odyssey – would be healthier for crews, easier to engineer & would save money.

That's the argument of a new paper in Acta Astronautica co-authored by a member of #ESATech’s Large Diameter Centrifuge team. Microgravity would still be available in the spacecraft hub: https://t.co/FpUSzcuMbP
