13. Future Directions
No release date yet
Space technologies are continuing to be refined and access to space is becoming cheaper.
12. Earth
No release date yet
The most important planet in the solar system is our home, the Earth. It is the only planet we know that harbours life.
11. Space Communication
No release date yet
As our expertise in space technology increases there have been spin-offs in many areas: particularly in communications.
10. Beyond the Solar System
No release date yet
There are so many unanswered questions about the stars, the galaxies and the universe and just mapping what lies in the night sky is immensely difficult.
9. Space Telescope
No release date yet
Space telescopes orbiting above the distorting effects of the Earth’s atmosphere, such as the Hubble, have made incredible contributions to our knowledge of the universe.
8. The Sun
No release date yet
The Sun is our star. Its energy enables life on the Earth to thrive yet we know so little about the solar weather and the 11 year solar cycle.

For most of human history our neighbouring planets were little more that dots of light in the sky with comets and asteroids being a complete mystery.
6. Spacesuit
No release date yet
Before spaceflight aviators began wearing pressure suits to allow them to function at higher ceilings.
5. Jupiter
No release date yet
The solar system’s largest planet has been visited by automated probes since the 1970s.
4. The International Space Station
No release date yet
Currently the only destination for Astronauts and Cosmonauts is the orbiting research platform known as the International Space Station.
3. Saturn
No release date yet
The ringed planet is of immense interest to researchers who believe that Saturn’s ring system will share similarities with the proto-planetary disc.
2. Mars
No release date yet
Early in the life of the solar system Mars appears to have had Earth-like conditions.
1. The Launchers
No release date yet
The development of reliable, high-powered boosters has enabled researchers to send probes to distant planets.
