Lijst Van Bemande Ruimtevluchten Bestaat Uit Een Tabel Met Elf Kolommen LIJST VAN BEMANDE RUIMTEVLUCHTEN MARCO VAN DER LIST VOORWOORD In dit document is een tabel opgenomen met alle bemande ruimtevluchten die zijn uitgevoerd tot en met 31 december 2020. In deze lijst is de definitie voor een ruimtevlucht zoals gehanteerd door de International Astronautical Federation (IAF) gebruikt; elke vlucht van een voertuig met inzittenden welke een minimum hoogte van 100 km boven het aardoppervlak bereikt. Daarnaast zijn een aantal andere, onbemande ruimtevluchten opgenomen om de bemande ruimtevaart in een wat breder perspectief te kunnen plaatsen; zoals onbemande testvluchten, lanceringen van ruimtestations en -modules, onbemande vrachtschepen om ruimtestations te bevoorraden, etc. Als laatste is een lijst opgenomen met alle ruimtevaarders die in de ruimte gevlogen hebben. Marco van der List De lijst van bemande ruimtevluchten bestaat uit een tabel met elf kolommen: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 # Ruimtevaartuig Ruimtevaarder M/V # Bz. Nat. Lancering Landing Vaartuig landing Opmerkingen 1. Vostok-1 Y. Gagarin M 1 - USSR 12.04.1961 12.04.1961 - 1ste bemande ruimtevlucht. 1 omloop. Beschrijving van de kolommen: 1. Aantal bemande ruimtevluchten uitgevoerd, inclusief deze specifieke vlucht; m.a.w. het aantal bemande ruimtevluchten welke een minimale hoogte van 100 km boven het aardoppervlak hebben bereikt. 2. Naam van het voor de lancering gebruikte ruimtevaartuig. 3. Naam van de ruimtevaarder-inzittende van het ruimtevaartuig. Een * geeft een niet-professionele ruimtevaarder aan (ruimtedeelnemer of -toerist). 4. Geslacht van de ruimtevaarder (M = man, V = vrouw). 5. Aantal ruimtevluchten dat de ruimtevaarder, inclusief deze specifieke vlucht, gemaakt heeft. 6. Bijzonderheden met betrekking op de ruimtevaarder gedurende deze specifieke vlucht: • EVA = Ruimtevaarder heeft een Extra Vehicular Activity (d.w.z. ruimtewandeling) uitgevoerd. • ! = Ruimtevaarder heeft een nieuw duurrecord ruimtevaren gevestigd. • † = Ruimtevaarder is omgekomen gedurende de vlucht. 7. Nationaliteit van de ruimtevaarder. Een lijst van gebruikte landenafkortingen is opgenomen op de laatste pagina van dit document. 8. Lancering: lanceerdatum van het ruimtevaartuig in het formaat dd.mm.jjjj. 9. Landing: landingsdatum van de ruimtevaarder in het formaat dd.mm.jjjj. In het geval van een onbemand ruimtevaartuig, geeft deze datum de landing/terugkeer van dat ruimtevaartuig. Een datum met een * geeft aan dat het ruimtevaartuig verbrand is/verloren is gegaan tijdens de terugkeer. 10. Wanneer een ruimtevaarder landt met een ander ruimtevaartuig dan welke gebruikt voor de lancering, is de naam van het ruimtevaartuig gebruikt voor de landing in deze kolom gegeven. Als deze kolom blanco is, dan is hetzelfde ruimtevaartuig voor zowel lancering als landing gebruikt. 11. Opmerkingen/bijzonderheden met betrekking tot de ruimtevlucht.

C.: U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, OTA- TM-STI-14, December 1983). Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 83-600624 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402 Foreword As the other major spacefaring nation, the Soviet Union is a subject of interest to the American people and Congress in their deliberations concerning the future of U.S. space activities. In the course of an assessment of Civilian Space Stations, the Office of Technology Assessment (OTA) has undertaken a study of the presence of Soviets in space and their Salyut space stations, in order to provide Congress with an informed view of Soviet capabilities and intentions. The major element in this technical memorandum was a workshop held at OTA in December 1982: it was the first occasion when a significant number of experts in this area of Soviet space activities had met for extended unclassified discussion. As a result of the workshop, OTA prepared this technical memorandum, “Salyut: Soviet Steps Toward Permanent Human Presence in Space. ” It has been reviewed extensively by workshop participants and others familiar with Soviet space activities. Also in December 1982, OTA wrote to the U. S. S. R.’s Ambassador to the United States Anatoliy Dobrynin, requesting any information concerning present and future Soviet space activities that the Soviet Union judged could be of value to the OTA assess- ment of civilian space stations.

    CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE LOW EARTH ORBIT BUSINESS CENTER A Project submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Engineering by Dallas Gene Bienhoff May 1985 The Proj'ectof Dallas Gene Bienhoff is approved: Dr. B. J. Bluth Professor T1mothy Wm. Fox - Chair California State University, Northridge ii iii ACKNOWLEDGEHENTS I wish to express my gratitude to those who have helped me over the years to complete this thesis by providing encouragement, prodding and understanding: my advisor, Tim Fox, Chair of Mechanical and Chemical Engineering; Dr. B. J. Bluth for her excellent comments on human factors; Dr. B. J. Campbell for improving the clarity; Richard Swaim, design engineer at Rocketdyne Division of Rockwell International for providing excellent engineering drawings of LEOBC; Mike Morrow, of the Advanced Engineering Department at Rockwell International who provided the Low Earth Orbit Business Center panel figures; Bob Bovill, a commercial artist, who did all the artistic drawings because of his interest in space commercialization; Linda Martin for her word processing skills; my wife, Yolanda, for egging me on without nagging; and finally Erik and Danielle for putting up with the excuse, "I have to v10rk on my paper," for too many years. iv 0 ' PREFACE The Low Earth Orbit Business Center (LEOBC) was initially conceived as a modular structure to be launched aboard the Space Shuttle, it evolved to its present configuration as a result of research, discussions and the desire to increase the efficiency of space utilization. Although the idea of placing space stations into Earth orbit is not new, as is discussed in the first chapter, and the configuration offers nothing new, LEOBC is unique in its application.

  • Proxima Mission Thomas Pesquet Reaches International Space Station
    Proxima mission Thomas Pesquet reaches International Space Station After completing 34 orbital revolutions of the Earth, the Soyuz spacecraft has docked with the International Space Station (ISS). France’s ESA astronaut Thomas Pesquet, mission commander Oleg Novitsky (Roscosmos) and U.S. astronaut Peggy Whitson (NASA) have safely entered the station and are now ready to start their six-month mission. Thomas Pesquet, 38, will be the 10th French astronaut to fly in space, the fourth to stay aboard the ISS and the first to spend six months there. His mission has been named Proxima after Proxima Centauri, the star nearest our Sun, continuing the tradition of naming European missions on the ISS after stars. Thomas will be in charge of more than 50 science experiments devised by ESA and CNES, and will be contributing to numerous research projects undertaken for other programme partners. CNES is closely involved in this mission, notably through the CADMOS centre for the development of microgravity applications and space operations, located at the Toulouse Space Centre. CADMOS will be controlling 21 of the 55 experiments to be performed by Thomas Pesquet for ESA and devised and prepared seven of the experiments itself: AQUAPAD, MATISS, EVERYWEAR, PERSPECTIVES, ECHO, FLUIDICS and EXO-ISS (educational experiments). After the successful docking and the crew’s entry aboard the ISS, CNES President Jean-Yves Le Gall commented: “What has been a truly golden week for us is continuing with this new and crucial stage of the Proxima mission! I would like to congratulate all of the international partners who played a part in this new success.

  • Russia Blames Space Station Lab Incident on Software Failure 30 July 2021, by Daria Litvinova
    Russia blames space station lab incident on software failure 30 July 2021, by Daria Litvinova Earth. The space station's communications with ground controllers also blipped out twice for a few minutes on Thursday. Vladimir Solovyov, flight director of the space station's Russian segment, blamed the incident on a "short-term software failure."

For 47 minutes, the space station lost control of its orientation when the firing occurred a few hours after docking, pushing the orbiting complex from its normal configuration.

    As ronaut cosmo /autDi INTRODUCTION May /985 Over the past four years, a period in US-USSR relations that the New York Times characterized as hitting an "all time low," a number of individuals who share a unique perspective of the Earth, have been meeting informally, shaping possibilities for cooperation and communication of an unprecedented nature. Having seen Earth from a vantage point that blurs political differences, several former American Astronauts and Soviet Cosmonauts have, in the spirit of the historic Apollo-Soyuz linkup in space, continued to explore terrestrial connections that could lead to exchanging their common experiences and solutions to global issues of mutual concern. Now a decade after that memorable hand-shake in space, the first Planetary Congress of Space Explorers will take place October 2-7, 1985, near Paris, to be attended not only by Soviets and Americans, but by representatives from other nations as members of a growing community of people who have orbited the Earth. The potential for this group of individuals to influence the consciousness of our time is perhaps unique in the history of explorers. The goal of this Initiative is to create a forum; the content and direction this forum might take will arise out of the special experience and perspective of the Astronauts and Cosmonauts themselves. The following report offers (1) a brief survey of events leading to the establishment of The Association of Space Explorers, (2) a summary of the planning meeting held during September, 1984, in France, and (3) text of the joint public statement. We are grateful to be able to include photographs of the meeting by Victoria Elliot, who accompanied the US Delegation.
