Summary

The video, presented by Hugo Lisoir on his channel ‘Les Dossiers de l’Espace’, provides a detailed overview of expected space events in 2019. It begins by noting that 2019 is expected to continue the high launch cadence seen in 2018, with a focus on the growing micro-launcher industry, including Rocket Lab, Virgin Orbit, Firefly Aerospace, and Vector. The video highlights the first launch of Vega-C, a significant European smallsat launcher, and the return of the Falcon Heavy and Long March 5. A major theme is the return to the Moon, with multiple missions planned: Chang’e-4 landing in January, Chandrayaan-2 in late January, the Israeli Beresheet lander, and the ambitious Chang’e-5 sample return mission. The video also covers crewed spaceflight, including the first uncrewed and crewed flights of SpaceX’s Crew Dragon and Boeing’s CST-100 Starliner, as well as suborbital tourism tests by Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic. It discusses the testing of SpaceX’s Starship prototype and China’s new crewed spacecraft. Other topics include the launch of OneWeb satellites for internet constellation, the New Horizons flyby of Ultima Thule, asteroid sample return missions (Hayabusa2 and OSIRIS-REx), the CHEOPS exoplanet mission, the expected release of the Event Horizon Telescope’s first image of a black hole, and the start of the third observing run of LIGO and Virgo. The video concludes by mentioning upcoming NASA mission selections and the dynamic nature of the space industry.
