• NASA has published its finalized low Earth orbit microgravity strategy that outlines key goals and objectives to support a sustained human presence in LEO and launch future space explorations.

NASA has unveiled its final strategy for sustaining human activities in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) beyond the International Space Station (ISS) era, aiming to foster a thriving commercial space economy. The strategy, detailed in a comprehensive report, outlines plans to transition from government-led space missions to a model where commercial entities play a central role. Key points include the development of commercial space stations, leveraging public-private partnerships, and ensuring continued U.S. presence in LEO through initiatives like the Commercial LEO Destinations (CLD) program. NASA's approach involves fostering innovation, reducing costs, and promoting international collaboration to maintain a robust human presence in space, with a focus on safety, accessibility, and economic viability. The strategy also emphasizes the importance of transitioning from the ISS to new platforms by the end of the decade, ensuring a seamless shift that supports ongoing scientific research, technology development, and exploration missions.
