Here's why scientists think women are better suited to space travel
Are women better astronauts than men? This question will become central to the selection of crews to the Moon, Mars, and beyond as we undertake the colonization of space.
In the struggle for gender equality, women have already proven they are capable of doing anything — including conquering space, showing that not even the sky is the limit for their success.

"The first all-women spacewalk at the International Space Station was carried out in October of 2019 and many other milestones have already been accomplished by women astronauts. But there has yet to be a first woman on the moon (or on Mars)," Katharina Buchholz writes for Statista.

How Did Space Travel Go Commercial? HBO Series Set to Explore the Real Story | Military.com
Ever wonder how space exploration stopped being a great national mission and became just another commercial enterprise? HBO will make a new limited series about billionaire Elon Musk and his controversial company SpaceX and how we made that transition is sure to be a focus of the show.
Musk is the Canadian-South African tech entrepreneur who hit the big time with his share in PayPal. He founded SpaceX in 2002, but has enjoyed his greatest business fame as CEO of electric car company, Tesla. He has a portfolio of other cutting edge companies involved in artificial intelligence, brain/computer interfaces and alternative transportation.
The future of space travel could include tourism and relocation
I t's no shocker when several people loudly threaten to leave the country if an election doesn't go their way. Yet it's hard to go anywhere this year, with a pandemic locking most people in place. Will the time come when we hear promises to bolt the planet?
"Will the election make some people want to leave the planet? Probably. I've already seen some friends on Facebook say so," said Glenn Reynolds, a law professor at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and author of the new short book America's New Destiny in Space .

SPACEPORT City: Concept for Commercial Space Travel Hub
On August 2, 2020, SpaceX Dragon 2 successfully splashed down in the Gulf of Mexico, returning private astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley from a resupply mission to the International Space Station. This historic flight marked the first manned commercial space flight; and to many, it signifies the beginning of space travel for civilians. As recreational flight shifts from science fiction to reality, designers wonder what public space travel will look like.
SPACEPORT CITY is a major transportation hub proposal created through collaboration with Space Port Japan Association , Dentsu , Canaria , and Noiz Architects . It is designed to support the commercialization of space travel while providing a center for research and other alternative space-related programs.
New nuclear engine concept could help realize 3-month trips to Mars
Because chemical rockets are already near their theoretical limits and electric space propulsion systems have such low thrust, rocket engineers continue to seek ways to build more efficient, more powerful engines using some variant of nuclear energy. If properly designed, such nuclear rockets could have several times the efficiency of the chemical variety.
According to Dr. Michael Eades, principal engineer at USNC-Tech, the new concept engine is more reliable than previous NTP designs and can produce twice the specific impulse of a chemical rocket. Specific impulse is a measure of a rocket's efficiency.
