The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) is among the six largest national space agencies in the world, along with China's CNSA, US's NASA, and Russia's Roscosmos. JAXA's budget is more than $1 billion USD—bigger than France or Germany individually, and more than that of Italy, India, Canada, and the UK combined. And yet, Japan's significant contributions have largely been absent in the history of space exploration, and space exploration largely absent in the history of technology in Japan. The Islands and the Stars: A History of Japan's Space Programs (Stanford University Press, 2026) corrects this conspicuous oversight. Through meticulous archival research in Japanese and anglophone archives, Dr. Subodhana Wijeyeratne examines the history of Japan's space exploration efforts over nearly a century. Dr. Wijeyeratne traces the evolution of Japan's space program from its early origins in the 1920s, through the postwar period of rapid technological innovation, to the consolidation of its various institutional elements into JAXA in 2003. He situates Japan's space programs within the broader history of the country's postwar recovery, economic growth, and cultural identity, while also considering their place within global trends in space exploration. Through this narrative, Wijeyeratne not only illuminates Japan's centrality to the global history of science and technology, but also offers insights into the future of global space exploration, emphasizing the importance of diverse voices and perspectives in the quest to understand our place in the cosmos. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Nasa ordena la primera evacuación médica de la Estación Espacial Internacional por la salud de un astronauta Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCoPor primera vez en más de sesenta y cinco años de vuelos tripulados, NASA ha tomado una decisión inédita: terminar antes de tiempo una misión espacial por una razón médica. La tripulación conocida como Crew-11 va a regresar a la Tierra antes de lo previsto tras detectarse una condición médica seria en uno de sus integrantes. La agencia no ha dado detalles sobre el diagnóstico, por respeto a la privacidad del paciente, pero sí ha sido clara en algo: no se trata de una lesión ni de un problema causado por las actividades espaciales.La decisión se anunció en una rueda de prensa en Washington y marca también la primera evacuación médica en la historia de la Estación Espacial Internacional, que lleva habitada de forma continua desde el año dos mil. ¿Qué tan preparada está una estación espacial para una situación así? ¿Y por qué, si solo una persona está enferma, deben volver los cuatro? Un problema humano obliga a cambiar toda la agenda científica en órbita Crew-11 llegó a la Estación Espacial Internacional en agosto a bordo de una cápsula **SpaceX Crew Dragon. La misión estaba pensada para durar unos seis meses, con regreso programado para finales de febrero. El equipo está formado por la comandante estadounidense Zena Cardman, el astronauta veterano Mike Fincke, el japonés Kimiya Yui, de la agencia espacial JAXA, y el cosmonauta ruso Oleg Platonov.Todo parecía seguir el plan hasta que Nasa canceló, de forma repentina, una caminata espacial prevista para esta semana. Poco después se confirmó que uno de los astronautas había presentado una condición médica seria. Según explicó el administrador de Nasa, Jared Isaacman, la persona afectada está estable, pero existe un riesgo persistente que hace aconsejable el regreso inmediato. La Estación Espacial Internacional cuenta con equipos médicos básicos, medicamentos y sistemas de comunicación seguros que permiten a médicos en la Tierra evaluar a los astronautas, casi como una consulta médica por videollamada. El problema aparece cuando el diagnóstico requiere pruebas avanzadas o tratamientos prolongados. En microgravedad, incluso algo que en la Tierra sería manejable puede volverse complejo.El jefe médico de Nasa, James Polk, fue claro: esta es la primera vez que una misión estadounidense se acorta por un tema de salud. Aunque no se trata de una evacuación de emergencia, la agencia ha decidido actuar con máxima precaución. Además, existe una regla clave: nunca puede haber más personas en la estación que asientos disponibles en las cápsulas acopladas, que funcionan como botes salvavidas. Por eso, aunque solo una persona esté enferma, todo el equipo debe regresar junto. El plan ahora es realizar un regreso controlado en los próximos días. La cápsula Crew Dragon va a amerizar en el océano Pacífico, frente a la costa de California, con equipos médicos esperando para evaluar a los astronautas apenas toquen el agua. Desde allí serán trasladados al Centro Espacial Johnson, en Texas.La estación no va a quedar vacía. Permanecerán a bordo el astronauta estadounidense Chris Williams y dos cosmonautas rusos, quienes mantendrán operativos los sistemas básicos. Eso sí, como explicó el científico espacial Simeon Barber, parte del trabajo experimental tendrá que ponerse en pausa. La prioridad va a ser el mantenimiento y la seguridad, hasta que llegue la siguiente tripulación, prevista para febrero.Este episodio también demuestra algo importante: incluso con décadas de experiencia, el factor humano sigue marcando los límites de la exploración espacial. Aunque esta es la primera evacuación médica de la Estación Espacial Internacional, no es la primera vez que la salud obliga a cambiar planes en el espacio. En mil novecientos ochenta y cinco, el cosmonauta soviético Vladimir Vasyutin regresó antes de tiempo de una estación espacial por una infección grave. Desde entonces, los protocolos médicos se han refinado mucho.Los astronautas reciben entrenamiento como oficiales médicos y están preparados para actuar ante problemas cardíacos, neurológicos o traumatismos. Aun así, como explicó el exastronauta y médico Tom Marshburn, el espacio permite estabilizar a una persona durante días, pero no mantener tratamientos largos.Este caso también llega en un momento especial: Nasa planea retirar la Estación Espacial Internacional entre dos mil treinta y dos mil treinta y uno. Cada incidente aporta información valiosa para futuras estaciones comerciales y para misiones más largas, como las que buscan llevar personas de nuevo a la Luna y, más adelante, a Marte. Nasa va a traer de vuelta antes de tiempo a la tripulación Crew-11 por una condición médica seria en uno de sus miembros. Es un hecho histórico que muestra hasta dónde llega la precaución en el espacio.

In this episode, we dive into a myriad of exciting developments in the space industry and cosmology. We kick things off with a major shake-up as Blue Origin hires Tory Brian, the former president and CEO of United Launch Alliance, to lead their new national security group. This strategic move signals Blue Origin's serious intent to compete for lucrative national security launch contracts, especially with their upcoming Glenn Heavy Lift rocket. Next, we explore a new and intriguing theory regarding dark matter, proposing that it may be composed of giant, star-sized objects, referred to as exotic astrophysical dark objects (IADs). Researchers are optimistic about detecting these objects through gravitational lensing, potentially using data from the Gaia Space Telescope. Shifting our focus, we discuss the upcoming close encounter of Asteroid Apophis with Earth in 2029, where the European Space Agency and JAXA will collaborate on the Ramses mission to study the asteroid's behavior under Earth's gravity. Understanding these interactions is crucial for future planetary defense strategies. We also tackle the mystery of missing normal matter in the universe. A recent study utilizing fast radio bursts has confirmed that a significant portion of this matter resides in the cosmic web, providing a monumental victory for cosmology by completing the census of normal matter. As we move closer to home, we highlight a groundbreaking dataset released by researchers at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory, mapping one million stable trajectories in the cis-lunar space. This open-source resource will aid future lunar missions and infrastructure planning. Finally, we preview the astronomical events of 2026, including a total solar eclipse, a total lunar eclipse, and exciting meteor showers, all set against a backdrop of high solar activity promising stunning auroras. Join us as we unravel these captivating stories and more in this episode of Astronomy Daily!00:00 – **Welcome to Astronomy Daily, the podcast that brings you the universe00:16 – **Blue Origin has hired Tory Bruno to head up its national security group01:07 – **New theory suggests dark matter could be made of giant star sized objects02:21 – **Asteroid Apophis will pass by Earth in 202903:18 – **Big Bang theory predicts a certain amount of normal matter in the universe04:48 – **Researchers at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory have created a roadmap for lunar navigation05:52 – **Total solar eclipse in 2026 is expected to be spectacular### Sources & Further Reading1.

La electricidad inalámbrica ya no es solo un sueño de ciencia ficción, ¡está sucediendo de verdad! Científicos de todo el mundo están construyendo sistemas que pueden enviar energía a través del aire, y ya se está utilizando para alimentar cosas como cerraduras inteligentes, sensores e incluso cepillos de dientes eléctricos. En Estados Unidos y Japón, los investigadores están probando formas de cargar de manera inalámbrica drones, satélites e incluso redes urbanas completas. Una de las ideas más interesantes es el uso de un haz infrarrojo, algo así como el Wi-Fi, pero para cargar tus dispositivos. La agencia espacial de Japón, JAXA, incluso planea lanzar una estación de energía solar en órbita para 2030 que podría enviar energía directamente a la Tierra. Si todo sale bien, la energía inalámbrica podría hacer que los cargadores y las baterías sean cosa del pasado, ¡y ayudar seriamente al planeta también! Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Peter Garretson talks with Dr. Sanjay Vijendran, Director of Space Energy Insights, and former lead for the European Space Agency's (ESA) groundbreaking SOLARIS Space-based Solar Power R&D Initiative. After a brief aside to discuss Sanjay's Mars work, they explore the basics of Space Solar Power: why it is interesting, and why Elon Musk's efficiency-focused critique gets it wrong. They discuss the importance of capacity factors, and how ESA changed the game by getting the energy industry involved in cost-benefit studies, which catalyzed new startups and investment. The conversation covers the current state of play: who are the startups, who is receiving funding and how much, and the diversity of concepts being pursued—including Overview Energy, Aetherflux, Reflect Orbital, VirtusSolis, Solaren, the UK's Space Solar, Australia's Solar Space Technologies, Volta, Starcatcher, as well as synergies with orbital data centers, space logistics, and in-space assembly and manufacturing. They explore longer-term work Sanjay sponsored with AstroStrom on setting up an industrial base on the Moon to build solar power satellites (see video), and examine near-term environmental benefits and challenges. They discuss Space Solar's advantages in energy payback time, energy return on energy invested, carbon return on carbon investment, land use, water use, and thermal pollution—and the need for government and intergovernmental planning models to include space solar power. They discussion also covers geopolitical and geoeconomic implications of leading or following, national security implications (including energy sovereignty), and energy security opportunities for the developing world, as well as near-term demos by AFRL, JAXA, China, and commercial firms. They conclude by discussing the International Conference on Energy From Space happening later this year.
Just three interstellar objects have ever been detected in our Solar System, each arriving from the depths of interstellar space.
