A few hours ago, the Shenzhou 20 spacecraft landed after spending 270 days docked at the Chinese Tiangong space station, where it arrived on April 24, 2025. The Shenzhou 20 departed the station about nine hours earlier and landed at a site called Dongfeng in China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

A few hours ago, a Falcon 9 rocket launched from Vandenberg Air Force Base on the Twilight rideshare mission, carrying a total of 40 satellites in various phases. Among them were NASA's Pandora Space Telescope and the BlackCAT and SPARCS nanosatellites, part of NASA's CubeSat Launch Initiative. These satellites will conduct their astronomical observations from low-Earth orbit.
