Today's mission aimed to build on that success, taking Astra from the test phase into operational flight.

And on the most recent trial, a mission for the U.S. The company had conducted four orbital launches before today, all of them test missions that lifted off from the Pacific Spaceport Complex in Alaska.Īstra reached space on two of those four missions.

The rocket failed to deliver the satellites to orbit as planned. 10, 2022, carrying four tiny cubesats on the ELaNa 41 mission for NASA. One of his dreams is to go into space, and his positivity, and that previous survival experience makes him the natural, if somewhat goofy leader, and he becomes the magnet that draws the others to him, and starts them all off on their own paths of healing, dealing with their respective pasts, and their respective chips.Astra's Launch Vehicle 0008 launches from Florida's Cape Canaveral Space Force Station on Feb. It’s just sheer luck that one of the group, a boy named Kanata has a particular chip on his shoulder that stems from a tragic past, a previous school trip that went badly, where a beloved teacher lost his life, and the promise that Kanata made to him, to survive and achieve his dreams. So the trip back also encompasses a lot of friction, and getting to know each other, learning to trust one another, and working together as a team. These nine children have seemingly been thrown together at random for this trip, they don’t really know each other, don’t particularly like each other, and all are carrying more than the expected chips on their respective shoulders that come with being a teenager. This happens again and again, but it all makes sense it all hangs together, and by the end, it seems that any plot hole you might have spotted while watching will have been filled, beginning with the amazing coincidence of being thrown through a portal 5000 light years, but winding up floating in orbit, within spacewalk distance of a derelict spaceship. It isn’t long before each episode is unfolding like a little Twilight Zone, liable to have a twist at the end that will knock your perception of this show on its head.
Astra lost in spacie series#
It’s a really well put together sci-fi comedy drama that has a series of compelling mysteries at its heart. I absolutely loved Astra Lost In Space, was hanging on every word by the end, and completely invested in all of the characters. Conclusion Once in a while a show like Astra Lost In Space comes along, so strong in its narrative, so impressive with the way the story unfolds that it becomes nigh on impossible to write about, as spoilers in a review will just wreck the experience.
