SpaceShipTwo was dropped from an aircraft at an altitude of 13,700 metres (45,000 feet) and glided successfully for 11 minutes before landing in Mojave, California. A day later America’s president, Barack Obama, signed a new authorisation bill for the country’s space agency, NASA, after many months of argument in Congress. This bill should encourage progress in commercial human space flight. It also paves the way for an manned government-backed mission to visit an asteroid by 2025. The bill must still go through an appropriations review in November. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini! Kembali
