          China Launches 3 Astronauts To Tiangong Space Station

          This image captured at Beijing Aerospace Control Center on Oct. 30, 2024 shows the crew of Shenzhou-18 and Shenzhou-19 manned spaceships hugging together. The three astronauts of China's Shenzhou-19 spaceflight mission have entered the Tiangong space station and met with another astronaut trio on Wednesday, starting a new round of in-orbit crew handover. The Shenzhou-18 crew opened the hatch at 12:51 p.m. (Beijing Time) and greeted the new arrivals, according to the China Manned Space Agency (CMSA). The six crew members then took group pictures for the fifth space get-together in China's aerospace history. They will live and work together for about five days to complete planned tasks and handover work, the CMSA said. The Shenzhou-18 crew is scheduled to return to the Dongfeng landing site in north China on Nov. 4. Photo by Han Qiyang/Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM

            Robonaut 2 on display at NASM - USA

            Handout Photo - Robonaut 2 is seen at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum’s Steve F. Udvar-Hazy Center Thursday, Oct. 24, 2024, in Chantilly, Va. Robonaut 2, the first humanoid robot to fly to space, is displayed publicly for the first time near the space shuttle Discovery. Robonaut 2, often called “R2”, was originally sent to the International Space Station (ISS) by NASA in 2011. Developed in a unique partnership between NASA’s Johnson Space Center (JSC) in Houston, General Motors, and Oceaneering, R2 represents cutting-edge advancements in humanoid robotics. The robot is designed to assist astronauts with tasks that require both dexterity and precision, improving efficiency and safety for crew members aboard the ISS. The humanoid robot showcases numerous component technologies, including advanced vision systems, sophisticated image recognition capabilities, integrated sensors, and tendon hands with dexterous, lifelike motion.

Astronauts Thomas K. (Ken) Mattingly II (kneeling right) and Loren J. Shriver (kneeling left) are commander and pilot, respectively. Astronauts James F. Buchli (standing center) and Ellison L. Onizuka (right) are mission specialists. Gary E. Payton of the U.S. Air Force, left, is payload specialist. Ken Mattingly, astronaut scrubbed from apollo 13, is dead at 87. He later orbited the moon, but in 1970 he was bumped from the Apollo flight after being exposed to measles. Then, from mission control, he helped it avert disaster. Photo by Nasa via ABACAPRESS.COM
