A more dependable launch feed and smoother ways to explore space. • Launch schedules and crew updates now use a shared feed, reducing interruptions from provider request limits. • Hold and drag the timeline’s decade picker to move through spaceflight history. • Improved ISS and Tiangong map loading and recovery. • The ISS map marker now uses a rendered station illustration. • A more compact floating tab bar on iPad, with subtle glass reflections drawn from visible artwork. • Updated launch-data compatibility and status handling.

A more refined Mission Control, with clearer reading layouts and richer iPad content. • Improved photo loading, retry controls, and source credits. • Refined typography, spacing, and floating navigation. • Reading paths and mission objectives are easier to scan. • Continue reading where you left off, and return to your last timeline decade. • The decade picker now follows the timeline as you scroll. • Smoother transitions with support for Reduce Motion.

This update improves the archive and live tracking: • Jump between timeline decades with new shortcuts. • Keep archive navigation visible while scrolling. • Open program details reliably from the archive. • See the current space station position directly on Live. • Improved loading of astronomy photographs and news images.

Now available on iPad, with layouts that adapt to your window, a floating tab bar, and more mission content side by side. Discover other reading paths at the bottom of each journey, and see astronaut portraits in mission crew lists. Explore space history in the new Education tab, with guided reading paths, an interactive timeline and NASA Eyes on the Solar System. Browse collapsible decades, clearer mission archives and improved astronaut filters. This update also improves launch photos, countdown layouts, space weather explanations and launch-feed reliability.

Introducing Frosted Observatory, a refreshed visual experience across Home, Launches, Live, and Explore. Discover frosted artwork for iconic rockets and spacecraft, restored mission covers and archival photographs, refreshed live instruments, and a more reliable Astronomy Picture of the Day. Mission details and archive navigation now open reliably, and Settings is easier to reach from the main screens.

Launch preferences now stay consistent across the app, widget, Siri, background refreshes, and Live Activities. Filter changes update immediately, and incomplete schedule data no longer replaces a trustworthy launch.

Station tracking now updates more reliably, with smoother source-backed Tiangong movement, smarter network usage, and clearer status when orbital data is temporarily unavailable.

Mission Control 1.5.6 makes the Live console feel truly live with independent freshness for ISS, Tiangong, and Deep Space Network feeds, confirmed station trails, and smoother source-driven motion.

Mission Control 1.5.5 makes live data more honest and reliable, improves widgets and Live Activities, fixes deep links and quick actions, and delivers major accessibility, Dynamic Type, mission browsing, and layout refinements.

Live Deep Space Network tracking is working again, with real spacecraft contacts grouped under the correct ground stations and safer handling when NASA's feed is unavailable.

Space weather is reliable again with restored live solar-wind readings, more accurate solar-flare charts, and honest source freshness when NOAA data is delayed or unavailable.

Launch agency filters now match current launch data more reliably, keeping preferred-launch cards, countdowns, notifications, and Live Activities aligned with your selections. Outdated launch Live Activities now clear automatically when a launch is no longer eligible.

Introducing the Artemis Program Home. Follow Artemis I–V as one campaign, with completed missions, the current focus, planned flights, mission roles, and official references. Version 1.5 also improves navigation, live-data freshness, widgets, notifications, VoiceOver, and Dynamic Type, and fixes News layouts at larger text sizes.
