This launch completes 24 planes of 13 sats per plane at a 53 deg inclination for the Direct to Cell constellation. Once raised to 360 km, it will be plugged in to service. Direct to Cell is open for business for any telco in the world that wants to eliminate dead zones for text…

There are so many problems to solve to make life multiplanetary and SpaceX can't do it all. Lots of opportunity.


The best Christmas tree

It's starting to get cold in Alabama, so you know what that means!

Jeff Bezos said at the NYTimes DealBook Summit today that Blue Origin was "very, very close" to a first launch of New Glenn, suggesting all the company needed was "final regulatory approval" [i.e., launch license] He was not more specific on a launch date, though.

Once NASA acknowledges that Artemis II is NET '26, it'll become a bit clearer that there is a very real possibility that neither SLS nor Orion ever fly again. I wouldn't bet on things playing out that way, but I wouldn't bet against it, either. People get too hung up on how…

After SpaceX built a cradle for the first Falcon 9 rocket's engine section at McGregor in a morning in 2008.

I personally do not want to see NASA built rockets in the VAB. That’s how we got in this mess. Maybe commercial rockets making use of VAB could be cool if it made sense. VAB is amazing and it shouldn’t be used once every 3 years 😭

I had the opportunity to visit @stoke_space in Kent and learn about their apprenticeship program, which trains individuals into a specific skillset for the space industry. As a key industry in our region, I truly appreciate their sustainable approach to advancing the aerospace…

Congratulations to my friend @rookisaacman I have had the great opportunity to follow and photograph him during his two spaceflight campaigns over the last almost four years. That’s consisted of countless fighter jet flights, mountaineering, all types of extracurricular…

you know what I like about this design? It’s a change, but it’s a change that they’ve clearly gone through the trouble of actually developing. That s1 engine exists. The s2 engine exists. They’ve flown a S2 prototype. It’s all there. I’d put them above Relativity at the moment.

It was so cool seeing this on the way to see the launch of Crew-9!

Progress has been made on Mobile Launcher 2, this will be used to support the SLS Block 1b starting with Artemis 4.

The Cape is going to be launching everyday within 3-4 years as crazy as it sounds. Starship + New Glenn + Vulcan + Nova are going to keep SLD 45 busy.

Thanks to Sentinel-2B's pass over the Space Coast today we have our first view of land clearing underway for the northern expansion of SpaceX's Roberts Road facility. This expansion should support Starship related work. Image captured 2024-12-03 16:05:39 UTC.
