SUMMARY:NASA Astronaut Chris Williams Post-ISS Mission Debrief
DESCRIPTION:2:45 pm EDT from Johnson Space Center\, NASA astronaut Chris Williams will recap his recent eight-month mission aboard the International Space Station. Williams returned to Earth on July 26\, after logging 241 days as an Expedition 73/74 flight engineer during his first spaceflight. He returned along with Roscosmos cosmonauts Sergey Kud-Sverchkov and Sergei Mikaev\, completing 3\,856 orbits of the Earth over the course of their more than 102-million-mile journey. They also saw the arrival of six visiting spacecraft and the departure of eight. \nDuring his mission\, Williams supported a wide range of scientific investigations and technology demonstrations. He helped advance research for new cancer treatments and improved in-space manufacturing of materials used in high-performance computers and electronics. Williams also completed two spacewalks to prep for space station power system upgrades and to replace a faulty joint on the Canadarm2 robotic arm. The crew’s work aboard the space station helps improve life on Earth and prepare for future human missions to the Moon and Mars. \n

SUMMARY:Outer Space Security Conference 2026
DESCRIPTION:At the Palais des Nations and online. Outer space is entering a renewed phase of strategic importance\, defined by rapid innovation\, growing competition and deepening global dependence. The evolution of the domain into a site for critical infrastructure and diverse commercial participation is fundamentally reshaping how space is accessed\, used and governed. At the same time\, the dual nature of modern space activities creates complex security dilemmas regarding the thresholds of destabilizing activity\, the neutrality of new actors and the strategic usage of space data. These developments raise urgent questions about security and stability in orbit. \nAgainst this backdrop\, UNIDIR convenes the Outer Space Security Conference 2026 as a platform for meaningful exchange across policymakers\, defence actors\, industry\, academia and civil society. Through focused panel discussions on technical\, legal and policy dimensions\, participants will explore practical pathways to strengthen the security and sustainability of outer space\, ensuring it remains stable and accessible for all. \nAgenda\nTuesday\, 8 September 2026 \n09:30 – 10:00 | Morning refreshments \n10:00 – 10:15 | Welcome remarks \n10:15 – 10:45 | Keynote address \n10:45 – 12:15 | Panel I: Mapping space threats and consequences \nSpace systems are increasingly subject to threats that raise important security concerns\, particularly for systems that support both civilian and military functions. This panel will focus on the consequences of space threats. It will examine how space threats can affect capabilities in orbit and generate cascading effects in space and on Earth\, as well as how certain activities blur the line between benign and hostile intent. Bringing together perspectives from military\, industry and civil society\, the discussion will seek to understand how these impacts unfold\, how ambiguity can be navigated and where key gaps remain in current understanding. \n12:15 – 12:30 | Lightning talk: OS26 youth campaign winner \n12:30 – 13:30 | Lunch break \n13:30 – 15:00 | Panel II: Strategic stability and the security of space architecture \nThis panel will examine how reliance on integrated space infrastructure for tactical and strategic operations impacts global stability. It will evaluate how space-based force multipliers and the prospective deployment of strategic orbital capabilities challenge existing arms control regimes and broader international security. The panel will seek to identify practical steps and pathways to safeguard international security. \n15:00 – 15:45 | Vienna exchange: Updates from the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) \nSeveral multilateral processes are underway to advance space governance through international efforts. In this session\, UNOOSA will provide an update on its work and progress in the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space\, with a particular focus on areas that may be of relevance to space security. The presentation will be followed by a brief question and answer session. \n15:45 – 16:15 | Coffee break \n16:15 – 17:45 | Panel III: Taking stock of efforts to advance the Prevention of an Arms Race in Outer Space in all its aspects \nEfforts to advance PAROS are focused on how to move from general commitments toward practical implementation. This panel will examine how space security debates on both international legally binding measures and non-binding measures related to PAROS are developing and how they may be pursued in practice. It will consider where common ground is emerging\, where differences remain and how current discussions in multilateral processes are shaping our near-term future. \n18:00 – 20:00 | Reception \nWednesday\, 9 September 2026 \n09:30 – 10:00 | Morning refreshments \n10:00 – 10:15 | Opening remarks \n10:15 – 11:45 | Panel IV: Complex interactions in a multi-actor orbit \nWhereas the early phases of the space race were primarily dominated by States\, the current space ecosystem has seen the competitive participation of industry actors. The proliferation of new actors and novel activities in orbit has created a complex web of interactions that have raised questions related to traditional legal frameworks. This panel will examine the impact of these shifting dynamics on the application of international law and the thresholds for targetability in the space domain. \n11:45 – 12:00 | Lightning talk: OS26 youth campaign winner \n12:00 – 13:00 | Lunch break \n13:00 – 14:30 | Panel V: Monitoring\, verification and visibility in outer space \nThe cumulative number of objects launched into space now exceeds 24\,000 and is expected to continue rising as more actors engage in space activities. The ability to monitor activities in orbit is now more important than ever for space safety and security. Space situational awareness (SSA) capabilities can track objects and detect certain activities\, but challenges remain with using SSA. This panel will examine how new tools and technologies could be developed to support space security\, including as a means to verify legally binding agreements and monitor norms of behaviour. It will explore current SSA capabilities and other tools\, how data is interpreted and assessed and the opportunities and challenges associated with monitoring and verifying activities in outer space. \n14:30 – 15:15 | Vienna exchange: Updates from the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space and the Expert Group on Space Situational Awareness \nThe Expert Group on Space Situational Awareness\, established by the Working Group on the Long-term Sustainability of Outer Space Activities\, is mandated\, inter alia\, to identify the information relevant for effective international SSA coordination\, the technical and governance mechanisms through which such information could be exchanged\, and the institutional arrangements for hosting\, governing and accessing SSA information. This exchange will provide an update on the work of the group\, initial recommendations and the utility of outcomes to safety\, security and sustainability of the outer space environment. \n15:15 – 15:45 | Coffee break \n15:45 – 17:15 | Panel VI: Securing space data and information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure \nThe modern space ecosystem relies on a complex\, interconnected network of orbital assets and terrestrial ICT infrastructure. As reliance on these networks deepens\, critical nodes—ranging from ground-based terminals to emerging concepts for data storage and processing in orbit—face evolving risks of hostile ICT activities and physical disruption. This panel will explore how the manipulation\, disruption or denial of space-derived data impacts strategic stability\, the security challenges surrounding both terrestrial and orbital data infrastructure and the multilateral and technical measures required to safeguard integrity and resilience across these systems. \n17:15 – 17:30 | Concluding remarks \nWhen and where\nTuesday\, 8 September and Wednesday\, 9 September 2026 | Room VIII – Palais des Nations\, Geneva and online.

SUMMARY:NASA Live Coverage of Solar Eclipse
DESCRIPTION:NASA will stream the eclipse live with views across the path and interviews with subject matter experts through a variety of platforms. \nDuring the eclipse\, NASA will conduct experiments in the path of totality. To investigate the dynamics of the Sun’s corona\, a NASA-funded science team will chase the Moon’s shadow with a WB-57 high-altitude research aircraft. The NASA-supported Nationwide Eclipse Ballooning Project is sending students from several U.S. universities to Iceland and Spain to launch scientific balloons before\, during\, and after the eclipse to research how the temporary darkening of our skies during the eclipse affects Earth’s atmosphere. \nNASA’s eclipse coverage is as follows (all times Eastern): \nWednesday\, Aug. 12 \n\n1:15 p.m.: Eclipse broadcast begins\n1:45 p.m.: Totality begins in Iceland\n2:28 p.m.: Totality begins in Spain\n\nNASA photography coverage\nPhotos of the eclipse\, dependent on visibility\, will be available shortly after the eclipse. View images on the agency’s Flickr account.
