Space Exploration
From robotic landers probing distant moons to the crewed missions pushing further than humans have gone in fifty years, this is where SpaceInfo Club tracks the push beyond Earth orbit. Coverage spans NASA, ESA and commercial missions, the engineering that gets them there, and the science they bring back.
Reporting draws on conversations with the scientists behind these missions, including astrophysicist Dr Francesca Faedi (University of Leicester, Orbital Innovation Ltd.), who studies how deep-space conditions affect the human body. See the full list of astronomers and mission scientists we’ve spoken with.

After eight years and nine planetary flybys, ESA–JAXA’s BepiColombo mission is about to reach a critical turning point. On 3 September 2026 at 14:00 CEST (12:00 UTC), the spacecraft will deliberately separate from the engine module that has carried it across the inner Solar System, an operation that might sound like something has gone wrong.
