L\u2019histoire de l\u2019exploration spatiale a connu un tournant majeur samedi dernier, avec la mission New Shepard NS-37 de la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 am\u00e9ricaine Blue Origin, qui a envoy\u00e9 pour la premi\u00e8re fois une personne en fauteuil roulant dans l\u2019espace.
Un \u00e9v\u00e9nement hautement symbolique, salu\u00e9 comme une avanc\u00e9e en mati\u00e8re d\u2019inclusion et d\u2019accessibilit\u00e9.
La fus\u00e9e a d\u00e9coll\u00e9 \u00e0 08h16, heure locale, depuis le site de lancement de Blue Origin dans l\u2019ouest du Texas, avec six passagers \u00e0 son bord. Parmi eux figurait Michaela Benthaus, ing\u00e9nieure allemande en a\u00e9rospatiale et en m\u00e9catronique \u00e0 l\u2019Agence spatiale europ\u00e9enne, devenue parapl\u00e9gique \u00e0 la suite d\u2019un accident de VTT survenu en 2018.
Apr\u00e8s environ dix minutes de vol suborbital, la capsule est revenue sur Terre et a atterri avec succ\u00e8s, confirmant le bon d\u00e9roulement de la mission.
Initialement programm\u00e9e quelques jours plus t\u00f4t, celle-ci avait \u00e9t\u00e9 report\u00e9e en raison d\u2019un probl\u00e8me technique d\u00e9tect\u00e9 lors des v\u00e9rifications pr\u00e9alables.
Cette mission constitue le 37\u1d49 vol du programme New Shepard et le 16\u1d49 \u00e0 transporter des humains au-del\u00e0 de la ligne de K\u00e1rm\u00e1n, fronti\u00e8re reconnue entre l\u2019atmosph\u00e8re terrestre et l\u2019espace.
R\u00e9utilisable, la fus\u00e9e New Shepard est con\u00e7ue pour des vols touristiques suborbitaux, illustrant la volont\u00e9 de Blue Origin d\u2019ouvrir l\u2019espace \u00e0 un public toujours plus large et diversifi\u00e9.
