SSC Space, Firefly set 2028 target for first orbital launch from Sweden’s Esrange
HELSINKI — SSC Space and Firefly have set a 2028 target for the first orbital launch from Esrange, with key infrastructure and regulatory pieces falling into place. The companies announced the timeline during a press briefing in Stockholm, June 30, following a string of milestones that include construction progress at Launch Complex 3C, a new bilateral agreement streamlining U.S.-Swedish launch licensing and a $21.5 million (SEK 209 million) contract with Sweden's defense procurement agency.

The Firefly Alpha launch appears to have been fully successful. The LM-400 test satellite is being tracked in a 401 x 405 km x 123.0 deg orbit, and the Alpha second stage made a perigee lowering burn at about 0140 UTC to 231 x 423 km x 123.1 deg.

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

Monitoring several launch sites in a single @umbra.space capture. There's a lot of construction activity going on at Cape Canaveral SFS! Just because it's not in the public eye 24/7 doesn't mean it's not happening. 2025-05-26 04:08:38 UTC.

I have no idea how (I know what the possibilities are but I don’t know which one occurred) but I got turned into a vampire in Oblivion and it was fun but I’m considering un-vamping myself cause it’s getting annoying to constantly watch for sunlight and people screaming when I try to talk to them.

it would be great if we had a democratic party willing to go out and say “this is an insane lie to get you to irrationally hate a minority group trying to just exist peacefully” rather than start throwing us under the bus and twiddling their thumbs

In advance of the Oscars tonight: a lot of comedy heroes let you down. They become unfunny/bitter/closed minded. Conan is the exception. He has grown & evolved & is funnier than he’s ever been. He’s also an extremely kind and lovely human. Just a sincere post to say: Conan rules.

a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job
