25 August · outcome confirmed
NASA and ESA complete high-speed ISS antenna installation ↗
NASA reports that Anil Menon and Sophie Adenot installed and connected the spare antenna; initial checks showed power and data transmission. Full functionality remains subject to continuing ground tests.
27 August · orbit reboost completed
Cygnus XL raised the ISS orbit ↗
NASA reports a 20-minute Cygnus XL engine burn that adjusted the station’s orbit. This establishes the manoeuvre, not a long-term station-performance outcome.
27 August · launch completed
ESA: MTG-I2 completes the first MTG satellite family ↗
ESA reports that MTG-I2 launched on Ariane 6, separated from the launcher and established contact with the Malindi ground station. Operational availability of subsequent weather data needs a separate check.
· Astana / optional Baikonur programme
SPACE DAYS KAZAKHSTAN 2026

Editorial watch queue
What needs proof next.
Every item names a concrete proof requirement rather than a general promise to follow the topic.
Satellite monitoring of agriculture
Find the method used to compare satellite and agency data, its coverage, quality measures and the first measured result.
SPACE DAYS KAZAKHSTAN 2026
Recheck the programme, price, Baikonur conditions and access before travel; after the forum, separate statements from documents and results.
ISS antenna, Cygnus XL and MTG-I2
Check the antenna’s ground-test outcome, Cygnus XL’s subsequent status, and the start of MTG-I2’s operational phase separately.
