Summary

In this episode of ‘Dernières Nouvelles des Étoiles’, Hugo Lisoir covers three main space news stories. First, he reports the official delay of the ExoMars mission, a joint European-Russian endeavor, due to parachute deployment issues and other technical problems, pushing the launch to at least 2022. Second, he discusses NASA’s decision to remove the Lunar Orbital Platform-Gateway (LOP-G) from the critical path for the Artemis 3 mission, aiming to simplify the architecture for a 2024 lunar return. Finally, he highlights the discovery of over a hundred new trans-Neptunian objects by the Dark Energy Survey, which could aid in the search for Planet Nine. The video also touches on the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on space agencies and the industry.
