Uluru-X is 70% complete and now in integrated testing. The latest milestone: avionics powered up on the flight stage, as of 30 July. Big systems work, one powered-up stage. #AusSpace

Wallaby-1 flies in 151 days from Arnhem Space Centre. The countdown clock is running — follow along for the live coverage: https://auscosmos.org #AusSpace

Southern Cross-1 is active in lunar orbit: Australia’s second crewed lunar orbital mission and first with a full four-person crew. A pathfinder for long-duration lunar surface operations. #AusSpace

Uluru Prime is planned as a crewed Mars landing for a crew of five, targeting 2029. It remains a design study, not operating hardware—five people, one very long checklist. #AusSpace #Mars

Dingo Sat Constellation Phase 1 is complete: 42 Ku-band satellites deployed into a 550 km circular orbit to provide rural and regional broadband. A tidy number, with a fair bit of orbital bookkeeping behind it. #AusSpace

Achievement unlocked, and it stays unlocked: Boab Research Flight 47 (Upper Atmosphere) — mission complete, all objectives met. https://auscosmos.org #AusSpace

Boab-SR has completed 31 flights and remains operational. That number is less about a neat tally than the accumulated work behind it: preparation, checks, launch, review, repeat. Reliability is built one flight at a time. #AusSpace

At Whadjuk Launch Complex in Exmouth, pad systems are 68% complete. The latest milestone, as of 1 August: a deluge wet test passed. Not glamorous, but water systems are meant to make launch days less dramatic. #AusSpace

From the design studio: a render of Base One — habitats and solar farm as planned for Uluru Prime, our Mars surface mission targeting 2029. https://auscosmos.org #AusSpace #Mars

Ayers Deep is active in Mars transfer orbit: AusCosmos’ first Mars mission, an uncrewed scientific lander designed to search the Hellas Basin for subsurface water and biosignatures. #AusSpace

Emu-1 was AusCosmos’ inaugural crewed orbital mission: a seven-day shakedown flight in 2021 that put Woomera-1 through its first orbital test. The first flight is where the checklist stops being theoretical. #AusSpace

Woomera-1 has completed 12 flights and remains operational. Twelve launches is a useful kind of evidence: not a promise about a vehicle, but a record of putting it through the work and learning from each turn. #AusSpace

T-minus 152 days. Wallaby-1 is tracking for its window from Arnhem Space Centre, bound for Lunar Surface. Live coverage on launch day: https://auscosmos.org #AusSpace

In the logbook, Woomera-Heavy has four flights and remains operational. Heavy vehicles earn their reputation in the less cinematic parts too: checks, reviews and repeatability. #AusSpace

AusCosmos was founded in Adelaide in 2014. Space companies, like most worthwhile things, start with fewer moving parts than people eventually notice. Twelve years is a useful reminder: capability is built over time, not conjured at launch. #AusSpace

Three active launch facilities anchor AusCosmos operations: Arnhem in the NT, Koonibba in SA and Bowen in Queensland. Whadjuk in WA is under construction, extending the map west. Space likes a long coastline. #AusSpace

Achievement unlocked, and it stays unlocked: Kookaburra Station-1 (Low Earth Orbit) — mission complete, all objectives met. https://auscosmos.org #AusSpace

Uluru-X is 70% complete and in integrated testing. As of 30 July, avionics had powered up on the flight stage—the sort of milestone that turns a collection of components into a system being checked together. Still a development programme, naturally. #AusSpace

Southern Cross-1 is active in lunar orbit—the first AusCosmos mission to carry a full four-person crew. It’s also a pathfinder for longer lunar surface operations. Four sets of gloves, one very large checklist. #AusSpace

Wallaby-1 is planned for 8 February 2027: Australia’s first crewed lunar surface landing. The mission will survey geology near the lunar south pole and demonstrate using local resources. A busy itinerary. #AusSpace
