Exploration of the Solar System[]
The European Space Agency (ESA) plans to launch the JUICE spacecraft, which will explore Jupiter and its large ice-covered moons, following a nine-year transit.[1] Meanwhile, NASA will continue the mission of the Juno spacecraft at Jupiter, with a fly-by of Europa planned for 29 September.[2][3]
In Mars exploration, the ESA has partnered with Roscosmos to launch the Rosalind Franklin rover using the Kazachok lander as part of ExoMars 2022.[4]
NASA plans to launch the Psyche spacecraft, an orbiter mission that will explore the origin of planetary cores by studying the metallic asteroid 16 Psyche. It will launch on a Falcon Heavy rocket along with Janus, a dual space probe that will visit two binary asteroids, (175706) 1996 FG3 and (35107) 1991 VH.
Lunar exploration[]
The United States will launch a number of commercial lunar landers and rovers. As part of NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services program, the launch of Astrobotic Technology's Peregrine lander and Intuitive Machines' Nova-C lander is scheduled. Russia plans to resume its Luna-Glob exploration programme with the Luna 25 lander. Japan plans to launch the SLIM lunar lander. India will attempt once more to deliver a robotic lander to the lunar surface with Chandrayaan-3.
Human spaceflight[]
China will finish construction of the Chinese Space Station (CSS) with the addition of the Wentian and Mengtian lab modules.[5]
Boeing's CST-100 Starliner will conduct its first crewed test flight in 2022.[6][7]
Rocket innovation[]
Arianespace's Ariane 6 will make its long-delayed maiden flight,[8] targeting a per-satellite launch cost similar to a Falcon 9.[9] Blue Origin plans to launch its first orbital-class New Glenn rocket with a reusable first stage.[10] The maiden flight of Vulcan Centaur is planned for 2022. The rocket is designed by United Launch Alliance to gradually replace Atlas V and Delta IV Heavy at lower costs.[11] Mitsubishi Heavy Industries's H3 launch vehicle, scheduled to enter service in early 2022, will cost less than half that of its predecessor H-IIA.[12]
