Journey to space with a capsule!

A space tourism company is designing a spherical capsule capable of carrying customers into space. New photos have been released showcasing the construction of the "Space Neptune" capsule by the U.S.-based company "Space Perspective" in Florida. Once completed, "Space Neptune" will conduct flights to 30 kilometers above the Earth's surface, providing incredible photo opportunities. The capsule will feature a bar, in-capsule Wi-Fi, and a toilet for passengers. Passengers will be able to enjoy a 360-degree view of Earth while inside the capsule. The company aims to welcome its first passengers aboard Space Neptune by the end of 2024, contingent on the success of unmanned test flights. In a recent statement, the company referred to the capsule as the "latest marvel in sustainable space travel." JOURNEY DETAILS The capsule containing passengers will be tethered to a much larger balloon filled largely with hydrogen gas. When fully expanded, the balloon's volume will be 18 million cubic feet, large enough to encompass a football stadium. As hydrogen gas is lighter than the surrounding air, the balloon, along with the capsule beneath it, will slowly ascend through the Earth's atmosphere. The company claims the capsule will reach equilibrium above 99% of the Earth's atmosphere, where it will "float like an ice cube on water." During the journey, passengers will be able to see distances of up to 450 miles in every direction. Throughout the flight, passengers will be served breakfast, be able to order drinks, and can recline in comfortable seating to enjoy the unique views.

Crazy Project About Space from Russia

Vladimir Koshlakov, General Director of Roscosmos's Kelst Research Center, stated that Russian experts are working on a project to examine the interstellar environment and send spacecraft beyond the solar system. Koshlakov, General Manager of the Keldysh Center operating within the Russian Federal Space Agency (Roscosmos), explained that Russian experts are working on a project to examine the interstellar environment and send spacecraft beyond the solar system within the scope of the Russian International Exhibition and Forum. “Currently, a project to study the interstellar medium is being created and a space experiment involving the flight of a vehicle beyond the solar system is being prepared,” Koshlakov said. Pointing out that the world's most powerful plasma engine developed by the Keldıs Center will be used in the spacecraft, Koşlakov underlined that this engine can operate 'uninterruptedly for many years'. The plasma engine or Hall effect engine can be included in the class of electric rocket engines. Compared to ion engines, plasma engines have more thrust but lower efficiency. These engines stand out with their low fuel consumption and can operate uninterruptedly for years.

Virgin Galactic carries tourists into space for the first time

Virgin Galactic, owned by British businessman Richard Branson, carried tourists to space for the first time. Mother and daughter were among the passengers going to space. On the other hand, the price of tickets to space reached 450 thousand dollars after the last price hikes. Virgin Galactic, a spacecraft manufacturer and space tourism company, has carried tourists into space for the first time since its first commercial flight last June. The spacecraft VSS Unity, which took off with the carrier plane known as Eve, which took off from Spaceport America in the US state of New Mexico at 08:30 local time, ignited its engines to separate from Eve at an altitude of 15 kilometers. Unity then reached a height of 85 kilometers from the earth with its own engines and reached the zero gravity environment. Tourists had the opportunity to experience the zero-gravity environment for about 5 minutes. After about 90 minutes of flight, VSS Unity successfully landed on Spaceport America. They became the first mother-daughter to travel to space The spacecraft included 18-year-old Anastatia Mayers and her mother Keisha Schahaff, who won tickets in a competition as tourists, as well as 80-year-old former British Olympic athlete Jon Goodwin, who bought tickets for the flight. Goodwin became the first Olympic athlete and second Parkinson patient in space, and 18-year-old Mayers is the second youngest person to go into space. Mayers and her mother, Schahaff, became the first mother-daughter to travel into space. The first commercial flight was made last month Last month, Virgin Galactic successfully completed its first commercial flight, taking three people into space on a flight paid for by the Italian Air Force and the Italian National Research Council. Branson became the first billionaire in space British businessman Richard Branson, owner of Virgin Galactic, flew into space with a crew of six in July 2021 and became "the first billionaire in space" 800 people line up for space travel While 800 people have bought tickets to go to space with Virgin Galactic company, the ticket price has reached 450 thousand dollars after the last price hikes.

NASA found a new black hole weighing 20 million suns

In the statement made by NASA, it was stated that the black hole, which was detected by accident by the Hubble Space Telescope, is roaming at a great speed among the galaxies. It has been noted that the black hole, described as an "invisible monster", moves fast enough to travel between the Earth and the Moon in 14 minutes, and is supermassive enough to weigh 20 million suns. It was stated that the black hole left behind a trail of newborn stars twice the diameter of the Milky Way galaxy, 200,000 light-years long. It was noted that the fast black hole, for which the expression "probably the result of a rare, strange galactic billiard game between the three big black holes" was used, triggered new star formations along a narrow corridor by curing gas masses instead of swallowing the stars in front of it. Pieter van Dokkum of Yale University, USA, said the black hole, which was traveling too fast through space to take time to swallow anything, leaving behind star formation. “What we see is the aftermath. "We see the trail from the black hole, like the trail behind a ship." Van Dokkum reported that in the Hubble telescope image, while scanning star clusters in a nearby dwarf galaxy, he noticed a small line that he thought was a cosmic ray, and when they eliminated the cosmic rays, they found a trace of a black hole unlike anything they had seen before. In NASA's statement, it was noted that astronomers believe this intergalactic black hole may have formed as a result of the chaotic and unstable configuration of three massive black holes in galaxies colliding with each other, perhaps 50 million years ago, when one was ejected from this formation.
