NASA to Preview Upcoming ISS Spacewalks Focused on Solar Array Upgrades in January 2026
NASA astronauts will conduct two spacewalks in January outside the International Space Station. Tasks include preparing for the roll-out of solar array installation, replacing cameras, and relocating fluid system jumpers. The spacewalks, part of Expedition 74, are critical for station maintenance, upgrades, and future operations, with the first spa...

Russia Patents Rotating Space Station Concept to Generate Artificial Gravity in Orbit
Russia’s Energia rocket company has patented a rotating space station concept designed to generate artificial gravity for astronauts. The system would use spinning habitable modules to simulate half of Earth’s gravity, potentially reducing health risks linked to long missions as the International Space Station nears retirement.

International Space Station Makes History As Eight Visiting Spacecraft Simultaneously Dock
In December 2025, the ISS reached a historic milestone with eight visiting spacecraft docked simultaneously for the first time. The lineup included Soyuz crew vehicles, Progress cargo ships, Japan’s HTV-X1, Northrop Grumman’s Cygnus, and two SpaceX Dragons. The rare configuration highlighted intense crew rotation operations and the ISS’s role...

ISS Experiment Shows Moss Spores Can Survive Harsh Space Environment
A hardy moss species survived 283 days on the outside of the ISS, enduring vacuum, radiation and extreme temperatures. More than 80% of its spores lived and germinated back on Earth. The findings reveal surprising resilience in early land plants and may support future Moon and Mars ecosystem designs.

Intense Solar Storm With Huge CMEs Forced Astronauts to Take Shelter on the ISS
A major solar storm in mid-November 2025 dazzled Earth with vivid auroras but forced astronauts on the ISS to take radiation precautions. Russian cosmonauts sheltered in the station’s heavily protected Destiny lab, while other crew members stayed in shielded quarters as controllers limited access to higher-risk modules during the event.
