The Soyuz launcher a Kourou - 2011 - First Soyuz liftoff in French Guiana - The Soyuz rocket on its fire pitch at the Guyanese Space Center (CSG) in Kourou, 14 October 2011. VS01 is the first flight of the Russian Soyuz rocket from Kourou in Guyana. The launch took place on October 21, 2011. Soyuz VS01, the first Soyuz flight from Europe's Spaceport in English Guiana, was transferred to the launch zone on 14 October 2011. The vehicle was rolled out horizontally on its erector from the preparation building to the launch zone and then raised into the vertical position. The 'Upper Composite', comprising the Fregat upper stage, payload and fairing, was also transferred and added onto the vehicle from above, completing the very first Soyuz on its launch pad at Europe's Spaceport. Soyuz VS01 has lifted off on 21 October 2011. The rocket carried the first two satellites of Europe's Galileo navigation system into orbit

Houston Training Pool - NBL facilities (Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory) - The Houston Pool (Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory) is used for astronaut training. Measuring 60 metres long, 30 metres wide and 12 metres deep, this basin hosts models of the International Space Station modules allowing astronauts to train in a state close to weightlessness on their future outings into space. The Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory pool at Nasa's Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, where astronauts, wearing a 65 - kg Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) spacesuit, practice spacewalking and working outside the International Space Station during underwater simulated extravehicular activities (EVAs). This facility consists in a 60 - m - long, 30 - m - wide and 12 - m - deep water reservoir, with a capacity of 23,500 cubic meters. Two overhead bridge cranes are used to display mock space station modules for training. The spacesuit buoyancy provides a simulated weightlessness for astronaut trainees. Most ESA astro

The Soyuz launcher a Kourou - Illustration - Soyuz liftoff in French Guiana - Illustration - Artist's view of the Russian launcher Soyuz - 2 on his pitch at the Guyanese Space Center (CSG) in Kourou. In 2010, a Soyuz launcher will take off from Europe's Spaceport in English Guiana. This will be an historic event as it will be the first time that a Soyuz is launched from a spaceport other than Baikonur or Plesetsk. It will also be a milestone in the strategic cooperation between Europe and Russia on launchers. The Soyuz launch vehicle that will be used at Europe's Spaceport is the Soyuz - 2 version called Soyuz - ST. This includes the Fregat upper stage and the ST fairing. Soyuz - 2 is the most recent version of the renowned family of Russian launchers that began the space race more than 50 years ago by launching Sputnik, the first satellite placed in orbit, and then sending the first man into space. Soyuz - 2 will have improved performance and be able to carry up to 3 tons into geostat

Space Shuttle of the Future - Artist's View - Terrene shuttle on launch pad - Artist's view of a space shuttle of the future on his shooting pitch. An imagined space shuttle of the future is readied for launch at twilight illumed by gantry lighting. This shuttle is referred to as “” terrene”” (meaning “” of the Earth”) to differentiate it from other space shuttles that may one day operate from the surface of the Moon and other planets

Crescent Moon on the shooting pad - Illustration - Crescent Moon through Apollo launch site - Artist's view of a crescent Moon seen through the shooting pad abandons Apollo missions. A crescent moon shines through the launch site of humanity's first and only trips to another world. The rockets, gantries and spectators are long gone, leaving this slowly decaying monument to heroic dreams. Artwork

MSG-2 satellite (Meteosat 9) - View of the European satellite MSG-2 (Meteosat Second Generation) or Meteosat 9 in a clean room at the Guyanese Space Centre on 13 December 2005. Launch on 21 December 2005, it is a geostationary satellite dedicated to meteorology. MSG-2, the second model of the Meteosat Second Generation satellite series, is mated on top of its Ariane 5 launcher in the Final Assembly Building (BAF) of the Ariane Maunch Complex n* 3 (ELA-3) at the Guiana Space Centre, Europe's space port in Kourou, French Guiana, on December 13, 2005. The 2 - ton MSG - 2 was successfully lofted onto a geostationary transfer orbit by an Ariane 5GS (V169), on December 21, together with India's Insat 4A satellite communication
