A Starship timeline is shifting? Color me shocked (previously Musk said they'd try to catch Starship on the next flight which was targeted for the end of this month)

There's plenty to dig into from SpaceX's S-1 filing, but I really didn't have asteroid mining showing up on my bingo card

Overnight, the situation on board the ISS became more serious: NASA is now considering ending Crew-11 early due to a crew member's medical issue

As an update to our earlier communication regarding a medical situation aboard the International Space Station, the matter involved a single crew member who is stable. Safely conducting our missions is our highest priority, and we are actively evaluating all options, including the possibility of an earlier end to Crew-11’s mission. These are the situations NASA and our partners train for and prepare to execute safely. We will provide further updates within the next 24 hours.

NASA is postponing tomorrow’s planned spacewalk

NASA is postponing the Thursday, Jan. 8, spacewalk outside the International Space Station. The agency is monitoring a medical concern with a crew member that arose Wednesday afternoon aboard the orbital complex. Due to medical privacy, it is not appropriate for NASA to share more details about the crew member. The situation is stable. NASA will share additional details, including a new date for the upcoming spacewalk, later.

NASA and Boeing are reducing Starliner's definitive mission to the ISS to four, after last year's botched test flight and the ISS program quickly approaches its end. Next Starliner flight, a cargo mission, is planned for April

Apollo 13 astronaut Jim Lovell has passed at 97 www.nasa.gov/news-release... One of my early young journalist memories was getting to interview him and Ron Howard on a red carpet in Austin for a screening of Apollo 13. I bragged about it for a while! (I'm the mop of brown curly hair)

I saw a headline from the Daily Mail about tomorrow's Blue Origin launch that made me cringe and think of all the 80s headlines I quoted for my book, but then upon further study I found the headline was an actual quote that Katy Perry gave to Elle so I'm just going to stare into the middle distance

Now this is what happens when you land on the moon from Austin

Weird, wonder why this happened? Couldn’t have possibly had anything to do with any tweets this week…

There's obviously plenty of yelling for other reasons, but this has caused the space yelling

I'm in DC today for the CSF/FAA conference, where the question on everyone's mind is: what's going to happen with NASA's Artemis program? And is SLS a goner? Well we don't know for sure yet, but here's why changing the program will be hard work www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

The explanation for these changes is that they want all the teams to be aligned and to go through their checklists.

As we await a potential static fire ahead of New Glenn's first launch, the FAA has given Blue Origin the license they need
