Written, narrated, shot and edited by Wes O’Donnell, Managing Editor of In Military, veteran and AMU graduate. This Memorial Day we remember the sacrifices made on our behalf.
The post-World War II Cold War was a dark and frightening time in world history, and the earliest space launches marked some of the tensest moments in this international standoff.
In the first article, we discussed the enormous challenges of human interstellar spaceflight and how they might be overcome with better and faster spacecraft propulsion technology.
Sustaining human life in outer space is a challenging undertaking. Despite about 200,000 years on the planet in our current, highly-evolved form, humans have only within the last 60 or so years figured out how to go into space without getting killed.

Many first responders are suffering from traumatic stress after responding to the coronavirus pandemic, which is leading to burnout and even suicide. Learn about the resulting physical, emotional, behavioral, and spiritual effects and what support is needed to address mental health issues during this crisis.
This week in 2004, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency’s (JAXA) Hayabusa robotic spacecraft received a crucial gravity assist from Earth.
In part IV, we looked at the need to protect spacecraft from the harsh outer space environment while maintaining comfortable temperatures for crews. In this final part, we’ll explore the challenges surrounding keeping human spaceflight crews fed and hydrated during their missions.
In the last part, we discussed different kinds of propulsion systems that might be used to cross vast distances in space at reasonable periods of time. Now, we’ll look at the need to protect spacecraft from the harsh outer space environment and maintain temperatures that are comfortable for human crews.
