With recent speculation that NASA is planning a manned mission to an asteroid to bring back samples of space rock, it would be informative to know how astronauts will travel there. The mission itself will use the new program that NASA is developing called Project Constellation. The program, which replaces the current Space Transportation System (STS) involving the Space Shuttle fleet, will extend manned space activities of the United States from low-Earth orbit to such destinations as the Moon, Mars, asteroids, and possibly other more distant celestial bodies.

On December 27, 2006, a French-led multinational team (consisting of the European Space Agency, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Germany, and Spain) launched the first ever spacecraft to exclusively study planets outside the Earth’s solar system. The spacecraft Corot, which stands for COnvection ROtation and planetary Transits, will study exosolar planets, or exoplanets; that is, any planet orbiting a star other than the Sun.

The Space Elevator—an elevator that would go up and down between the Earth’s surface and a point in space above the Earth—has been a topic of science and science fiction for years. However, materials did not exist that were strong enough to actually build it. In the twenty-first century, that is no longer the case.
