In a significant development for France's space program, the government has confirmed an agreement with Vast, a commercial space station developer, to send two French astronauts into space.
Astronauts Thomas Pesquet and Arnaud Prost will undertake separate missions, with Prost's journey including a visit to the Haven-1 space station, which is under development by Vast.
These missions are slated for 2027, marking a notable step in France's involvement in commercial space exploration as it collaborates with private enterprises.
