Delivery tracking goes live

Dear Readers of the Tesat-Spacecom Parts Agency Newsletter,

50 years ago, the Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins began their historic flight to the Moon. Today, many companies worldwide are preparing new missions to the moon or into the moon orbit. For some of them even this goal is only an intermediate step for a mission to Mars.
In the past years, the number of players who have set themselves such targets has grown by orders of magnitude. In the past 25 years, 18 missions were targeting the Moon, now planned for the next 5 years are more than 30 missions.
