Star Academy: A new era of space exploration
NASA and SpaceX join forces to build a new human spaceflight program
The Star Academy program will train astronauts for missions to the Moon and Mars
NASA and SpaceX have announced a new partnership to build a new human spaceflight program called Star Academy.
The program will train astronauts for missions to the Moon and Mars, and will use SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft to launch astronauts to and from the International Space Station (ISS).
Star Academy is a major step forward for human spaceflight, and it could pave the way for future missions to Mars.
What is Star Academy?
Star Academy is a new human spaceflight program that will train astronauts for missions to the Moon and Mars.
The program is a partnership between NASA and SpaceX, and it will use SpaceX's Dragon spacecraft to launch astronauts to and from the ISS.
Star Academy will train astronauts in the skills they need to survive and work in space, including spacewalks, robotics, and emergency procedures.
Why is Star Academy important?
