2021; a special year for manned spaceflight

On Wednesday, February 2, 2022, a lecture will be organized by the National Space Museum (NRM) together with the Dutch Space Association (NVR).

2021 has been a special year for human spaceflight. We have seen a record number of flights to space (>100 km altitude) and a lot has happened to existing, new and future space stations.
A brief overview of the events of the past year:
1.         New parts for the ISS;
2.         China begins construction of their space station;
3.         Space tourism has begun;
4.         Actress in space;
5.         Tourist to ISS;
6.         Commercial space station plans are entering a new phase.

In this lecture we will look back on these events of the past year. We will discuss in what context these events can be placed and what they mean for the coming years.
