From myth to machines, from Gagarin’s orbit to Armstrong’s steps, humanity crossed a frontier once confined only to books: Space!
Listen to Space Travel by Black Eye to enjoy reading this post.
“Space, the last frontier. But where does this frontier actually begin? How far above Earth do we say “space” starts?” This is the beginning of the just-revised blog page, Space Travel.
With reusable rockets now a routine sight and Starship Flight 10’s successful test fresh in the news, this is the perfect moment to revisit how humanity travels to space. The Space Travel page has been fully revised, with its content now divided into clear sections for easier readability: from the myths that inspired us, to the milestones of the Space Race, and to the breakthroughs of reusability..
The update also introduces a new section on the future of space travel, exploring nuclear engines, plasma thrusters, and concepts that may one day reduce the time required for interplanetary journeys. And for the very far horizon, I couldn’t resist linking it with The Golden Age, the first chapter of our Becoming Spacepolitans Tales, a glimpse into a possible future way of moving through the Solar System.
So, take a seat, fasten your belts, and begin your ride to space: the updated Space Travel page is ready to bring you to the stars!
Space for All, all for Space!
