SpaceX isn’t slowing down. Even after the dramatic failure of Starship Flight 8, testing continues, upgrades are in progress, and Starbase is evolving at breakneck speed. S35 has already begun testing, while B16’s status raises some questions—could SpaceX be planning a booster reuse for Flight 9?

We're less than 2 days from Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost Mission 1, which is carrying several NASA payloads onboard, a number of which will be studying the lunar regolith and how it interacts with various materials. 📷 Firefly Aerospace

During the preview conference of 2 upcoming EVAs, NASA's Bill Spetch confirms to me that they're confident in the current EMUs (EVA Spacesuits) on the station, despite the issues they've faced over the last few years (notably water/coolant going places it shouldn't).

The "high sea state" Blue Origin speaks of appears to be forecasting 4.7 metre (15ft) waves, 20 knot wind gusting 31kt, according to wave data from windy.com, approx where Jacklyn is. At the new launch time, the waves are forecast to be 3.9m (12.7ft), winds 18kt gusting 30kt.

It would be great if BlueSky supported more than 300 characters per post. I’d love to bring my X feed here but my most popular X posts are 1000s of characters long. 300 just isn’t enough. And it’d be nice to not have to put everything into threads. @support.bsky.team
