Look into space. The year will bring together projects and attract looks outside our daily lives on planet Earth. After the flights above the Kármán line, considered the limit between the Earth’s atmosphere and space, with tourists and civilians, such as the one by SpaceX and Elon Musk’s Inspiration 4 in September, the two by Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin, one July and October, and one from Virgin Galactic in July with owner Richard Branson, look forward to 2022 much more. Musk alone has 34 launches planned, and at the end of the year NASA will make the first landing of a spacecraft on the Moon with him, in what will be one of the tests to finally return the man to the satellite.
According to information from Space Capital, $14.5 billion was invested in space infrastructure as a whole in 2021, up 50% from $9.8 billion the previous year. And $25 billion in all space technologies. A growth of around 25% is expected for 2022. It will be a good year to invest in the medium, as the cost of launching satellites, for example, is expected to drop from US$ 200 million to US$ 60 million – advancing for after 2022, perhaps as much as $5 million per shot will be reached, thanks to reusable rockets. The price of satellites will also drop, from US$500 million to US$500. The ball of the moment for investment, according to experts, is SpaceX, which they hope to create a new development in structure and completely change the way we operate in space. .
Blue Origin, meanwhile, hopes to attract a lot of payers to its tour journey at Blue Origin and New Shepard in 2022. The number of launches in the Texas desert? It depends on the number of financiers for its reusable rocket, which as soon as it arrives in space is released and remains for several minutes with the passengers in a weightless sensation, until they descend to Earth. Certainly 2022 will surpass 2021, which had 13 missions and spaceflights with humans and three private companies with historic milestones in the sector.
NASA will not be left behind and, together with long-time partner Boeing, will launch a gigantic 98-meter rocket, larger than the Statue of Liberty, on the Artemis mission, which will make a flyby flight across the Moon – the test concept. will take people in the future to live and work off Earth. The Soviet pioneers will not be far behind and will send the Luna 25, owned by state-owned Roscosmos, to drill the ground in search of ice in July.
And these flights close to the Moon will also be tests to land there again, probably in 2023. Pretty fiction, no? NASA is working on the infrastructure to be installed on the Moon, don’t worry, and several companies will ship cargo in 2022, including one that will dump science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke’s ashes across white soil.
Speaking of Clarke, for the first time a spacecraft will actually get close to Jupiter’s satellite moon Europa, described in the author’s second book, 2010: A Space Odyssey 2, as a mysterious place where a civilization lives. Jupiter, by the way, will have its turn in space exploration: Europeans will send their Icy Moon Explorer to explore three moons of the largest planet in the Solar System.
NASA sent new glasses into space, the James Webb, and this one sees far. The successor to the Hubble telescope has the mission to observe the first stars, in what would be the birthplace of the universe. With its beautiful yellow panels, it has been in position since January 24th of this year, 1.6 million kilometers from Earth, and about to send never-before-seen images of our surroundings.
