![]() Sidus Space (NASDAQ: SIDU) is a Space and Defense-as-a-Service satellite company focused on mission-critical hardware manufacturing multi-disciplinary engineering services satellite design, production, launch planning, mission operations and in-orbit support. As a result of this subcontract, Sidus has now been approved for manufacturing of the Qualification test set Umbilicals and the related Qualification testing that ensures the Umbilicals will perform as designed for the Universal Stage Adapter on the Artemis rocket. The award of this subcontract follows the delivery of Sidus's Umbilicals to NASA's Kennedy Space Center for testing in July of 2022. "As a result of this award, our Umbilical Quick Disconnects are expected to be a key piece of hardware on NASA's Space Launch System Manned Vehicle, and we are proud to be a part of to the Artemis Program's goals of both putting a human back on the moon and advancing NASA's deep space exploration." "The award of this subcontract further validates Sidus' ability to deliver mission critical hardware to our key partners and vendors," said Carol Craig, Sidus' Founder and CEO. The SLS will send the Orion spacecraft, astronauts, and cargo directly to the Moon on a single mission, while also being designed to be flexible and evolvable for deep-space destinations. With its unprecedented power and capabilities, the SLS is key to NASA's Artemis program, which has the goal of returning humans to the Moon, establishing a sustainable human presence on its surface, and preparing for human missions to Mars. The SLS is a super heavy-lift launch vehicle that provides the foundation for human exploration beyond Earth's orbit. Dynetics (NYSE: LDOS), is the prime contractor building the Universal Stage Adapter for NASA's SLS.

It will remain docked to the station for about three weeks before returning to Earth, splashing down off the coast of Florida.Ĭopyright 2023 WMFE. The capsule also contains supplies for the seven people living on the station, including fresh food: apples, blueberries, grapefruit, oranges, various cheeses, and cherry tomatoes. The hardware developed by Jacksonville-based Redwire will help boost the station's power capacity, joining other roll-out panels installed outside the station to augment the current solar panels. The mission will also deliver another pair of solar arrays. Another experiment led by researchers at the University of Florida with examine how plants grow in space, attempting to grow seeds sprouted from orbit during a previous experiment on the ISS. One experiment will observe thunderstorms from space with the aim to better understand how lightning storms affect our atmosphere. The Cargo Dragon capsule is packed with experiments and hardware for the astronauts on board the station. WMFE Weather delayed a weekend attempt of the launch.
