SpaceX begins the orderly wind-down of Falcon 9 after nearly 700 missions: most commercial launches are set to cease around 2028, while the full transition to Starship depends on the results of the megarocket's test flights.

NASA and ESA astronauts conducted a spacewalk through the ISS Quest airlock to service the communication antenna equipment. According to several sources, the new antenna was not installed during this spacewalk.

The spacewalk by astronauts Anil Menon and Sophie Adenot on August 18, 2026, did not allow for the complete replacement of the ISS communication antenna. Due to technical difficulties, the installation has been postponed until the next spacewalk.

🚀 End of the ISS Era: USA takes on station deorbiting, Russia prepares 'Progress' for descent control. By 2034, a new Russian Orbital Station will appear in orbit. 🌍🛰️

🚀 NASA astronauts Jessica Meir and Anil Manon completed a critical spacewalk on the ISS. They prepared a power channel for new iROSA solar panels, which will provide energy for the station's safe deorbit. The spacewalk lasted over 6 hours. #NASA #ISS #SpaceWalk #2026
