It’s not a bug, it’s a feature.

This photo was released today by Intuitive Machines, seemingly taken by their Athena IM-2 mission lander. The lander clearly tipped over, but otherwise looks OK. But it can't recharge, so is functionally dead. As far as I know, this is the first photo ever taken from the lunar south polar region.

I gotta say I was not expecting the blimp to end up so close to my house😂

A U.S. Customs surveillance blimp broke free from its tether in South Padre Island and drifted nearly 600 miles before being found tangled in power lines near Quinlan, Texas.

We are one step closer to seeing the return of supersonic commercial travel! Boom’s XB-1 went supersonic for the first time, reaching Mach 1.1 three times over the Mojave Desert. This milestone paves the way for Overture, which aims to fly passengers at Mach 1.7

Theory time! I think there was a large leak in the methane tank causing the engines to run oxygen rich. The first engine out might have caused damage to the other raptors resulting in them shutting down as well. What are your thoughts?

If Cameron County votes in favor of making it a type-c municipality then we could see the name officially changed from Boca Chica to Starbase

Eddie Treviño, Jr.
County Judge

For Immediate Release
December 13, 2024
Contact: Eddie Treviño, Jr.
Cameron County Judge

On Thursday, December 12, 2024, Cameron County received a petition from SpaceX requesting an election to incorporate Starbase as a Type-C Municipality. The County will review the petition for completeness and compliance with the statutory requirements for incorporation.

Once the review has been completed for compliance with the statutory requirements, Texas law requires the call for an election for incorporation of Starbase. The registered voters in the proposed Starbase area will have an opportunity to vote on whether to incorporate as Starbase, Texas. Once an election is concluded and the canvassing confirmed, the Cameron County Commissioners Court will confirm and ratify the election.

Cameron County Judge Eddie Treviño, Jr. stated, “The Office of the County Judge will work with the Civil Legal Division and the Election Office to review the petition and supporting documentation to ensure compliance with any and all statutory requirements before proceeding.”
