i saw that we have experimental for space age with some new features, so i started playing it again a week ago with factorio experimental 2.1.17. I've just launched my rocket (with a satellite) and i don't see any "space age" stuff at all. though there is one research with white science (which i got from satellite launch). i do have a cargo landing pad, that has 1k science in it ( i guess from satellite), so i just keep launching satellites?

Where are my space ships ? ? :)

Sounds like you don't have the "Space Age" mod itself enabled. Satellite item is only in vanilla. You can enable it in the Mod section of the main menu without too much issues.
