Hey folks, have you heard about SpaceX gearing up for their next Starship test? After the FAA finally gave them the thumbs up, they're looking at launching on November 17 from Boca Chica. It's been a bit of a rollercoaster since that dramatic mishap in April, huh?
Starship is seriously massive, like 400 feet tall! It's a huge deal for SpaceX, not just for their Mars dreams but also for NASA's Artemis program. But after what happened last time, the FAA had them jumping through hoops. They needed to fix a whole bunch of stuff, over 60 things, I think.
They've done a lot to get here, like adding this new flame deflector to protect the launchpad. Plus, they've tweaked the self-destruct system to be more reliable. It's been a huge undertaking to get back on track.

The latest news about SpaceX, NASA and Spaceflight.
Earlier in 2023, SpaceX experienced a significant setback with the failure of its Starship/SuperHeavy launch vehicle during its inaugural flight. This highly anticipated test, conducted from Starbase in Texas, ended in the loss of the rocket due to multiple engine failures, causing a catastrophic spin. This event marked a pivotal moment in SpaceX's ambitious space exploration program, highlighting both the potential and challenges of such cutting-edge technology.
As SpaceX gears up for the second test flight involving Booster 9 and Ship 25, optimism is cautiously high. Both components have undergone extensive testing, including two static fires for Booster 9, marking a first for the SuperHeavy series. Ship 25 has also had a flawless testing campaign, raising hopes for a successful flight. However, given the complexity of the mission, the launch timing remains fluid, with SpaceX committed to ensuring maximum data collection and safety.
The Federal Aviation Administration's safety review of SpaceX's Starship marked a significant milestone for the aerospace company. After the explosive test flight in April, the FAA grounded Starship to conduct a thorough investigation. This review was not just a procedural step but a deep dive into the technical and operational nuances of SpaceX's ambitious project. The FAA evaluated the Super Heavy booster's performance, specifically focusing on the unexpected "rock tornado" and the subsequent damage to the surrounding environment. SpaceX's commitment to safety was put to the test as the review scrutinized the mishap's causes and examined the company's safety culture, system safety processes, and quantitative risk analysis for launch and reentry operations.
Such high-tide flooding that inundates roads and buildings along the west coast of the Americas tends to be uncommon outside of El Niño years, but that could change by the 2030s.
An analysis by NASA’s sea level change science team finds that if a strong El Niño develops this winter, cities along the western coasts of the Americas could see an increase in the frequency of high-tide flooding that can swamp roads and spill into low-lying buildings.
El Niño is a periodic climate phenomenon characterized by higher-than-normal sea levels and warmer-than-average ocean temperatures along the equatorial Pacific. These conditions can spread poleward along the western coasts of the Americas. El Niño, which is still developing this year, can bring more rain than usual to the U.S. Southwest and drought to countries in the western Pacific like Indonesia. These impacts typically occur in January through March.

Dr. Lisa Watson-Morgan is a linchpin when it comes to the mission of landing humans back on the Moon. She's working on some hefty challenges, but as she puts it, "Right now, today, I don't see anything that's stopping us." Watson-Morgan appreciates the innovations SpaceX has contributed, particularly with its advancements in rocket capabilities. SpaceX’s partnership with Blue Origin and Lockheed Martin, experienced from their Orion program, also bodes well for the Artemis missions.
But the excitement doesn't come without a dose of realism. As the senior director of Human Spaceflight Programs at SpaceX, Benji Reed, put it during a fireside chat, "launch is signal and everything else is noise." The emphasis is on doing rather than theorizing, on testing rather than speculating. It's this hands-on approach that is shaping the HLS program's future.
SpaceX kicked off Sunday with a bang, launching the largest batch of second-generation Starlink satellites from the West Coast. This liftoff was particularly noteworthy as it took place at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, marking a change in SpaceX's usual launch sites. The Falcon 9 rocket soared into the sky with 22 satellites in tow, making it the first time a Falcon 9 has carried such a heavy payload of second-generation V2 Mini satellites from this location.
In this episode, we sit down with Gwynn Shotwell, the COO of SpaceX, for an exclusive interview about the company's past, present, and future. From the early days of Falcon to the latest advances in Starship development, Shotwell shares her unique perspective on the challenges, successes, and vision of SpaceX.
Tune in to learn about the inside stories of the Falcon and Starship launches, the intricacies of working with Elon Musk, and Shotwell's own insights into the future of space exploration. This is a must-listen for anyone fascinated by the final frontier and the innovators pushing its boundaries.
In today's episode, we're unpacking the recent updates on SpaceX's Starship, which has been in the spotlight for both its technological advancements and regulatory delays. SpaceX has performed all necessary pre-flight operations, but the massive rocket still awaits crucial permits from federal agencies. While many look to the skies with eagerness, Starship is grounded, as the completion of the launch licensing process remains a pending affair.
SpaceX had its second test flight planned for Starship and even completed a full wet dress rehearsal. However, the company faces multiple regulatory hoops before the rocket can break Earth's gravitational pull. One of the last major hurdles involves a review by the Federal Wildlife Service (FWS) in conjunction with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). This review is a detailed examination of Starship's potential environmental impacts, particularly focusing on the newly installed water deluge system at the Boca Chica launch site in Texas.
The initial observations of this awe-inspiring event came from the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) project. This network of telescopes alerted Matthew Kenworthy, an astronomer at the Leiden Observatory in the Netherlands, about the near-total dimming of a sun-like star, designated ASASSN-21qj. Now, such dimming could be caused by various phenomena, but what piqued Kenworthy's interest was that this star had also shown a sudden increase in brightness about two and a half years earlier. A connection seemed likely, prompting him to investigate further.
The work of scientists like Henri Samuel, Amir Khan, and others makes it clear that our understanding of Mars is still developing. We may have rovers on the planet's surface and satellites in its orbit, but the red planet continues to be a source of intriguing mysteries. Who knows what other surprises lie beneath its surface, waiting to be discovered?
For those of us intrigued by the prospects of interplanetary travel and colonization, these findings offer more than just scientific trivia. They provide a fundamental understanding of what makes up Mars, and by extension, offer clues into the origins and makeup of other celestial bodies in our solar system.
The future of space exploration hangs not just on scientific ingenuity but also on the ability to navigate regulatory and financial hurdles. Whether it's SpaceX's next Starship test flight or NASA's ambitious plans to bring back samples from Mars, red tape and dollar signs are common obstacles.
It's a complicated, intricate web that these organizations must traverse, keeping innovation at the forefront while adhering to guidelines and working within financial constraints. Despite these challenges, both SpaceX and NASA remain committed to their missions, continuously adapting and finding new paths to make their ambitious projects a reality.
India's space agency has carried out the first in a series of tests flights ahead of its planned mission to take astronauts into space in 2025.
The Gaganyaan spacecraft was launched at 10:00 local time (04:30GMT) on Saturday from Sriharikota.
This was the day's second attempt - the first was put on hold five seconds before the scheduled launch time.
The test was conducted to demonstrate whether the crew could safely escape the rocket in case it malfunctioned.
"I am very happy to announce the successful accomplishment of the TV-D1 (Test Vehicle Demonstration 1) mission," S Somanath, chairman of the Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro), said after the launch as his colleagues cheered and applauded.
SpaceX has previously demonstrated its ability to execute multiple launches within a short time frame. For example, the company has launched two Falcon 9 rockets within a single day. Achieving the 144-launch target for 2024 will require a sustained, relentless pace, achievable only through continuous innovation and a high degree of automation across the company's operations.
Redshift plays a crucial role in our perception of a dark universe. When light waves stretch due to the universe's expansion, their wavelength increases, moving them toward the red end of the electromagnetic spectrum. For light emitted from objects moving away from us, this can mean a shift out of the visible spectrum entirely, rendering them invisible to the human eye. This process is particularly pronounced for celestial bodies at great distances, which could effectively make large sections of the universe invisible and therefore dark to our perception.
Today, we have an action-packed episode focusing on the forefront of commercial space travel and space exploration. We'll be covering everything from Virgin Galactic's recent announcement about their sixth mission in six months, to SpaceX's effect on the small rocket industry. We'll also discuss the extension of the learning period for commercial human spaceflight regulations, Vega payload failures, Astra's stock troubles, Ariane 6 delays, Russia's plans for Gagarin's Start, SLS costs, SpaceX's call for FAA staffing, Falcon Heavy's Psyche mission, and finally, the potential for astronomers to use SpaceX's Starship.

Congratulations to the psyche team on a successful launch, the first journey to a metal rich asteroid, and bill is the NASA administrator. And the psyche mission could provide humanity with new information.
It's no secret that Elon Musk has been critical of regulators, specifically targeting the FAA for its slow pace. In late 2020, SpaceX even launched a Starship prototype in violation of its FAA license. Musk made his opinions clear through his tweets, stating that the FAA's existing rules are not suited for an industry that's so drastically different from what it was a decade ago.
As the aerospace community knows, the second Starship flight has been in a holding pattern. Initially, it seemed like the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) was the gatekeeper, but now the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) has stepped into that role. Even though the FAA has given a nod for testing, the FWS's approval is still pending for changes to the launch pad. Consequently, this could potentially set SpaceX back by months, if worst comes to worst.
In today's episode, we'll cover five key areas: SpaceX's recent interaction with the Coast Guard, updates to the Starship's structure, the litany of improvements made since the April test flight, the rapid installations at the launch pad, and lastly, what we can expect from SpaceX's ground testing scheduled for tomorrow.
Today's episode is going to focus on SpaceX's latest moves as they prepare for a Wet Dress Rehearsal (WDR) with Booster 9 and Ship 25. Regulatory permits permitting, the next Starship could be soaring through the skies as early as next month. This comes amidst a hive of activity at SpaceX's Starbase, from Cybertruck photo ops to tweaks in booster design.
Today, we're focusing our attention on a situation that unfolded in the starry skies above us. More specifically, we're talking about a coolant leak that occurred in a Russian module of the International Space Station, or ISS, as you may know it. NASA has confirmed that the leak, originating from the Russian Nauka Multipurpose Laboratory Module, has ceased for the time being. This episode will examine the incident, its implications for space station operations, and what it reveals about the reliability of the ISS.
Today's episode shines a spotlight on Boeing's Starliner spacecraft, which has been delayed yet again, according to an official NASA release. The Starliner was expected to carry astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS) for its first crewed test flight no earlier than mid-April 2024, a setback from its previous anticipated readiness date in early March. Furthermore, the target date for the operational flight of the Boeing spacecraft has also been pushed back to early 2025, another delay from its previous summer 2024 target. No specific reason for the delay was shared.
The spacecraft is targeting an Oct. 12 liftoff atop a Falcon Heavy rocket. Its destination, a metal-rich asteroid, may tell us more about how planets form.
In less than 24 hours, NASA’s Psyche spacecraft is slated to launch from the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. With its sights set on a mysterious asteroid of the same name, Psyche is NASA’s first scientific mission to be launched on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket.
Launch is set for 10:16 a.m. EDT on Thursday, Oct. 12, with additional opportunities identified each day through Oct. 25. Each opportunity is instantaneous, meaning there is only one exact time per day when launch can occur.
In today's episode, we're taking you on a journey through space to introduce you to Psyche, an unusual metal-rich asteroid hiding within the asteroid belt. Set to launch on October 12 from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center aboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket, the mission to explore this celestial object could redefine what we know about the solar system. Scientists are speculating that Psyche might not just be another asteroid but could potentially be the exposed core of a failed planet or something even more astonishing.
The next astronauts to walk on the moon will wear spacesuits designed in partnership with fashion icon Prada.

Today's story centers around NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission to the asteroid Bennu. The spacecraft successfully returned to Earth with a cache of samples, but scientists have encountered an unexpected issue: there's too much of it. This surplus of asteroid material, while slowing down the analysis process, has potential for additional scientific breakthroughs.
In 2020, OSIRIS-REx touched down on Bennu, a near-Earth asteroid. Using its specialized Touch-and-Go Sample Acquisition Mechanism (TAGSAM) head, it collected rock and dust samples from the asteroid's surface. When scientists at NASA's Johnson Space Center began to open the canister, they found not only the expected sample within the TAGSAM but also an unanticipated excess of material coating the lid and base of the canister.

Today we're going to talk about some issues and updates concerning two pivotal missions in the field of space science. First on our agenda is the European Space Agency's (ESA) Euclid space telescope, which launched in July. Its mission is to probe the enigmatic dark universe—made up of dark energy and dark matter—but it's facing some technical difficulties that we'll go over. Second, we'll discuss NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission that has returned a sample capsule from an asteroid, and the interesting things it's already revealing.
Today we'll be discussing an essential milestone that SpaceX recently achieved, securing its first-ever contract with the U.S. Space Force for satellite communications via our very own Starshield. The contract was officially confirmed on September 1st, according to Air Force spokesperson Ann Stefanek. We'll discuss how Starshield operates over the existing Starlink satellites and serves as a secured network exclusively for governmental agencies.
Today, we're taking a closer look at the monumental achievement of NASA astronaut Frank Rubio, who recently made headlines for his record-breaking stint on the International Space Station. Touching down in Kazakhstan via the Soyuz MS-23 spacecraft, Rubio's journey is awe-inspiring for a variety of reasons and it prompts many questions about human endurance in space, both physically and psychologically.
Today, we have a fascinating story to discuss that revolves around India's Chandrayaan-3 lunar rover and lander. These vehicles have achieved the monumental task of becoming the first spacecraft to successfully land on the untouched South Pole of the Moon, marking India's first-ever Moon landing. But after achieving their initial mission goals, they're currently taking a break, or in more technical terms, in "sleep mode," waiting for the next lunar sunrise. Quite the interstellar feat, if you ask me.
The upcoming Integrated Flight Test aims to demonstrate the full capability of SpaceX's Starship vehicle, marking an important milestone in space exploration ambitions. This next-level spacecraft will go through a series of sophisticated maneuvers to test its full range of functions, encompassing both ascent and descent. The goal is to validate the technologies and operational procedures that SpaceX has invested years of effort into, setting the stage for future missions that could include voyages to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.
After years of anticipation and hard work by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx (Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification and Security – Regolith Explorer) team, a capsule of rocks and dust collected from asteroid Bennu finally is on Earth. It landed at 8:52 a.m. MDT (10:52 a.m. EDT) on Sunday, in a targeted area of the Department of Defense’s Utah Test and Training Range near Salt Lake City.
Within an hour and a half, the capsule was transported by helicopter to a temporary clean room set up in a hangar on the training range, where it now is connected to a continuous flow of nitrogen.
Getting the sample under a “nitrogen purge,” as scientists call it, was one of the OSIRIS-REx team’s most critical tasks today. Nitrogen is a gas that doesn’t interact with most other chemicals, and a continuous flow of it into the sample container inside the capsule will keep out earthly contaminants to leave the sample pure for scientific analyses.
In today's episode, we're focusing on SpaceX and the trailblazing strides it has taken recently. From launching new missions to the International Space Station to testing innovative reusable rockets, SpaceX has been making headlines. So if you've been keeping an eye on space exploration or are just intrigued by the future of interstellar travel, this episode is for you.
The Starship system is a fully reusable, two‑stage‑to‑orbit super heavy‑lift launch vehicle under development by SpaceX. The system is composed of a booster stage named Super Heavy and a second stage, also called "Starship"
In today's episode, we focus on a somewhat unexpected twist in SpaceX's journey to the stars. The company's plans to re-launch its behemoth of a rocket, the Starship, could potentially hit some turbulence, not from technical faults, but due to environmental concerns. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) is currently scrutinizing the rocket’s potential impact on endangered species in the Boca Chica region of Texas, where SpaceX's launch site is located. This regulatory obstacle could push SpaceX's ambitious timelines off course, adding layers of complexity to an already intricate situation.
The issue at hand is a legal tug-of-war between SpaceX, the rocket and satellite venture headed by Musk, and the U.S. Department of Justice. In this conundrum, SpaceX has taken legal action against the U.S. government, arguing that the administrative process accusing the company of employment discrimination against refugees and asylees violates constitutional law.
The backdrop of this unfolding drama includes a complaint by the DOJ claiming that SpaceX had a history of not hiring non-U.S. citizens or green card holders from 2018 to 2022. SpaceX, however, counters this by stating that the administrative judges hearing such cases are not constitutionally appointed, thus denying the company its right to a jury trial. We'll be unpacking the nitty-gritty of this case, the arguments on both sides, and the previous legal precedents that could influence the outcome.

NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli, ESA (European Space Agency) astronaut Andreas Mogensen, JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Satoshi Furukawa, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Konstantin Borisov arrived at the International Space Station as the SpaceX Dragon, named Endurance, docked to the complex at 9:16 a.m. EDT Sunday while the station was 261 statute miles over Queensland, Australia.
NASA held an in-person press conference with the astronauts set to participate in the Artemis 2 mission, which aims to launch in November 2024. The conference provided a plethora of updates on the mission's objectives, timelines, and, interestingly, the integration of SpaceX's Starship as a key component in future lunar missions.
NASA's Administrator, Bill Nelson, underscored the importance of the Artemis program as a stepping stone for even more ambitious ventures, such as missions to Mars. A highlight of this strategy is NASA's partnership with SpaceX, specifically contracting the space company to provide the lunar lander that will act as the first astronaut base on the Moon.
Artemis 2 itself will be a critical test flight that carries four astronauts. However, it's essential to note that they will not actually land on the Moon. The Orion spacecraft is primarily a transit vehicle designed to dock either with SpaceX's Starship lunar lander or the Gateway lunar space station. NASA's Deputy Administrator Pam Melroy clarified the mission's pivotal role in laying the groundwork for the succeeding steps in the Artemis program.
During the Artemis 1 mission, NASA performed a slew of tests on the Orion spacecraft, covering aspects like power generation, cooling systems, and electrical circuits. While most tests were successful, certain irregularities were noticed in the spacecraft's heat shield, requiring further investigation.
Reid Weisman, the mission commander for Artemis 2, highlighted that astronaut safety is a primary concern for the mission. Any hiccups in the spacecraft's performance before setting a trajectory for the Moon could trigger a mission abort, bringing the crew safely back to Earth.
Looking beyond Artemis 2, the Artemis 3 mission is scheduled to land astronauts on the Moon by December 2025. The feasibility of this timeline is closely tied to SpaceX's ability to successfully launch Starship multiple times, proving its reliability and performance. SpaceX must also demonstrate its capability for orbital refueling, a necessary step for sending the second stage Starship to the Moon.
NASA officials recently visited SpaceX's Starbase to scrutinize their progress and discuss future milestones, including plans for propellant demonstration and an uncrewed test flight. This visit served to bridge communication gaps and align both teams more closely.
In summary, the role of SpaceX's Starship in NASA's lunar plans is not just an add-on but an integral piece of the puzzle. Both SpaceX and NASA must work collaboratively to resolve existing challenges and meet timelines, which are subject to frequent reassessments as each milestone is reached or missed.
When asked about the definite dates, NASA remained somewhat elusive, emphasizing the need for realistic scheduling and an adequate margin for unforeseen challenges. With rigorous testing ongoing, including heat shield tests at NASA's Ames facility, NASA seems to be leaving no stone unturned in their quest to return humans to the Moon and beyond.
SpaceX's upcoming Crew-7 mission to the International Space Station (ISS) has been delayed by at least 24 hours. Originally scheduled for Friday, Aug. 25, this mission was poised to carry four astronauts representing different space agencies. With a blend of technology and international cooperation, Crew-7 was set to take human spaceflight to new horizons.
India's Chandrayaan-3 mission has resonated with millions, not just as a technological achievement but as a symbol of national pride and potential. With a launch budget of $74 million, which is notably less than the cost to produce the 2013 Hollywood space thriller 'Gravity,' India has proven its mettle in cost-competitive space engineering.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi marked this success as "a victory cry of a new India," watched from South Africa, where he attended the BRICS summit. The landing sparked nationwide celebrations, with people dancing in the streets, setting off firecrackers, and hailing "India on the moon."
SpaceX readies Ship 25 and Booster 9 for potential 2023 launch; FAA reviewing mishap report; environmental groups' lawsuits persist; Musk remains optimistic with 50% chance of orbital success; possible delays due to various factors.
NEW DELHI — A pivotal stage in India's quest to explore the Moon has been reached with the preparation of the Lander Module (LM), including the lander "Vikram" and rover "Pragyan," for its descent to the Lunar south pole. The historic soft landing is planned for August 23, marking a significant advancement in India's ambitious space program.
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) announced that the Lander Module has successfully separated from the Propulsion Module (PM). This marks the initiation of a series of complex maneuvers that will bring the lander and its companion rover closer to the Moon's surface.
The Lander Module is scheduled to descend to a slightly lower orbit, following a planned deboosting process set to take place around 1600 Hrs. IST tomorrow. This deboosting, or slowing down, is an essential step to position the module in its specific orbit to approach the Moon.

The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has initiated a review of the mishap investigation report submitted by SpaceX related to its April test flight of the colossal Starship rocket. The disclosure of this milestone marks a significant phase in the regulatory process overseeing the burgeoning commercial space sector, the FAA confirmed on Tuesday.
The April Test Flight: An Overview
SpaceX, a renowned space transportation company founded by Elon Musk, embarked on a groundbreaking test launch of its mammoth Starship rocket on April 20. However, the test ended just four minutes post-liftoff due to engine failures and other complications during the rocket's ascent.
In what has been framed as a modern space race to the lunar south pole, both India and Russia have embarked on ambitious lunar missions. Although it’s easy to become caught up in who will touch down first, these missions represent a wealthomore than a competition.
India's latest lunar venture, Chandrayaan-3, commenced its journey on July 14, 2023, entering the moon's orbit on August 5. The craft is currently executing orbit reduction maneuvers, preparing for a landing attempt anticipated for August 23.
The target site for the Chandrayaan-3 is situated at 69.37°S 32.35°E. Solar considerations are paramount, as the sun's rise at this location will illuminate the area by August 21 GMT, thereby providing the required power for the solar-powered Vikram lander and Pragyan rover. The estimated landing time is 17:47 IST (1217 GMT, 08:17 a.m. EDT) on August 23.
Both the Vikram lander and Pragyan rover are solar-powered and have a mission lifetime of one lunar daytime (approximately 14 Earth days). This makes the timing of the landing vital to the mission's success and the amount of scientific exploration that can be carried out.
India's Chandrayaan-3 Lunar Lander
SRIHARIKOTA, India — Navigating the space around the Moon, India's Chandrayaan-3 mission is progressing smoothly on its path, with its ultimate goal being a historic landing on the lunar surface.
The spacecraft, which was launched from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre on July 14, 2023, successfully entered lunar orbit and now awaits the crucial phases of approaching the Moon's surface.
Chandrayaan-3's Current Position and Trajectory
As of Friday, the spacecraft was approximately 1,437 kilometers (893 miles) from the Moon's surface. It has been guided with precision by ISRO, India's space agency, through a series of complex lunar-bound maneuvers, culminating in the Lunar Orbit Insertion (LOI) performed on August 5.
The spacecraft is expected to reach a 100-kilometer (62-mile) orbit around the Moon by August 16. Subsequently, the Propulsion Module will separate, beginning the Lander's final descent sequence.
In an unprecedented endeavor to speed up human exploration of the red planet, NASA and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) have announced a collaborative program with industry leaders Lockheed Martin and BWX Technologies to develop and test a nuclear propulsion system that could significantly reduce the travel time to Mars.
The program, known as DRACO, short for Demonstration Rocket for Agile Cislunar Operations, comes with a price tag of $499 million and seeks to revolutionize the future of interplanetary travel and satellite maneuvering.
In a recent press conference, Boeing's Vice President and Starliner manager, Mark Nappi, announced a potential readiness of their spacecraft by early March. However, he emphasized that this doesn't guarantee a March launch. The forthcoming dates will be finalized in collaboration with NASA's Commercial Crew Program, the International Space Station (ISS), and United Launch Alliance (ULA).
The Starliner was initially set for a July 21 launch, intending to transport NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Barry "Butch" Wilmore to the ISS. But an unexpected twist came weeks before the launch when Boeing declared an indefinite postponement, following the emergence of two significant safety challenges. Since these setbacks, both Boeing and NASA have reportedly rectified the capsule’s safety issues.
Steve Stich, the head of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, conveyed that multiple independent review layers have been established to address and overcome these complications. One of the major concerns was related to the load capacity of Starliner’s trio of parachutes. Tests showed that their failure load limits were below expected, suggesting that if one parachute failed, the remaining duo might not slow the spacecraft adequately for its New Mexico landing.
In this episode, we're turning our attention to the recent strides made at SpaceX’s Starbase in Texas, with a particular focus on the ongoing testing phase of the Starship program. From the static test firings of the Raptor engines to the implementation of the water deluge system, we'll be discussing how these key operations contribute to the program's ambitious objectives.
We're also going to explore the journey of Booster 9, its recent trials on the Orbital Launch Mount (OLM), and what these developments signify for the future of space exploration
In this episode, we are turning our gaze to a mission that's literally reaching for the moon. The Indian Space Research Organisation's Chandrayaan-3 lunar mission, scheduled to enter the Moon's sphere of influence on August 5, is carrying the hopes and ambitions of an entire nation.
This journey is not without its trials and tribulations. The successful execution of the mission hinges on a critical phase - the lunar orbit insertion, a meticulously planned maneuver that can spell the difference between significant advancement in lunar science and an astronomical setback. We'll delve into the details of this crucial operation, discuss the possible outcomes and repercussions, and take a historical detour to revisit a past mission with an eerily similar challenge.
SpaceX's Starship remains grounded after a launch explosion, with the final accident report still pending. Despite repair and testing progress, the firm faces FAA investigation and legal hurdles challenging the program's initial approval. These delays may disrupt SpaceX's future satellite launches, NASA moon missions, and Mars colonization plans. #spacex #elonmusk #news
In a breakthrough for SpaceX's space exploration agenda, details have emerged regarding the second orbital test flight—OFT-2—of its ambitious Super Heavy and Starship spacecraft. While a definitive timeline remains elusive, industry insiders and enthusiasts alike have their sights trained on this monumental step in human space exploration.
In under 80 days, history will be made as NASA and SpaceX partner to launch a solar-powered spacecraft on a voyage that will span 2.5 billion miles. This unprecedented journey into the heart of our solar system will propel humanity further into the cosmos than ever before, to the main asteroid belt situated between Mars and Jupiter.
The purpose of this mission? To lay bare the mysteries of an enigmatic asteroid designated 16 Psyche.
The metallic composition of 16 Psyche, chiefly iron and nickel, has been the source of much speculation and excitement. Estimates peg the potential worth of the asteroid at an astronomical $10,000 quadrillion, a figure that could revolutionize economies and industries as we know them. But beyond the material riches lies an even more significant treasure: a unique opportunity for planetary scientists to study an iron core resembling that within the center of our own Earth. This mission will expand our understanding of these iron cores and may well unveil an entirely new class of metal worlds in the solar system.
Human spaceflight to Mars presents unique psychological challenges. An interplanetary journey to Mars, as proposed by Mars-One, would entail an isolation and confinement period of up to nine months during the voyage, followed by a potentially permanent stay on an alien planet millions of miles away from Earth. These conditions can give rise to a host of psychological issues, including but not limited to loneliness, depression, anxiety, and interpersonal conflicts.
The isolation from friends, family, and familiar surroundings can intensify feelings of loneliness and can lead to depression. The confinement of the spacecraft, with limited room to move and a lack of privacy, can create tension and conflict among the crew. Prolonged periods of monotony, broken only by high-stress situations, can cause cognitive and behavioral issues.
Furthermore, communication delays with Earth - ranging up to 24 minutes round trip - can create feelings of isolation and frustration, and can challenge the crew's problem-solving abilities, as immediate support or advice will not be available. Upon arrival on Mars, the astronauts will be faced with a barren and harsh environment, drastically different from Earth. This alien landscape, combined with the realization of a permanent stay, may further exacerbate feelings of isolation, homesickness, and stress.
Therefore, astronauts on a mission to Mars will require a unique blend of skills to cope with these challenges, including technical and scientific expertise, excellent problem-solving skills, and robust psychological resilience. The selection, training, and support of these pioneers will be paramount to the success of the mission and the well-being of the crew.
SpaceX and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) are seeking to dismiss a lawsuit initiated by five environmental and Indigenous groups challenging the approval of the space company's Starship rocket program. The FAA and SpaceX contend that the plaintiffs do not possess the legal standing required to present their case, according to court documents filed on Friday.
The lawsuit, initiated on May 1 by the Center for Biological Diversity, the American Bird Conservancy, the SurfRider Foundation, Save Rio Grande Valley, and the Carrizo-Comecrudo Nation of Texas, claims the FAA acted inappropriately by not conducting a thorough environmental study on the probable impacts of SpaceX activities. They argue the FAA should have ascertained the potential consequences before permitting SpaceX to launch from its Starbase facility in Boca Chica, Texas.
A key part of the Starship's mission portfolio is transporting humans to LEO, while also doubling as an orbiting space station akin to the ISS. This dual functionality has led to inevitable comparisons between the two. While similar in size, with the ISS having an internal pressurized volume of around 915 cubic meters, there are considerable differences in their roles and design principles. The ISS is a multinational space research facility, able to accommodate six crew members, and plays a vital role in conducting experiments in microgravity. In contrast, the Starship, while capable of similar LEO operations, is intended to be much more — a vessel for pioneering deep space travel.
SpaceX Gears Up for Another Groundbreaking Flight with Ship 25
SpaceX, the undisputed trailblazer in private space exploration, is setting the stage for its next major spectacle. Only two months have passed since the historic first integrated test flight of Starship, and already, the rocket company is vigorously testing engines for the second takeoff. This time, the starring role goes to Ship 25. In parallel, SpaceX is feverishly working on the final touches for the foundational structure at the Orbital Launch Mount (OLM). It's here that Super Heavy and Starship are expected to embark on their next momentous journey, optimistically slated for as early as August.

The upcoming second integrated test flight of Starship, featuring Ship 25 and a Super Heavy prototype dubbed Booster 9, is shaping up to be yet another testament to his company's ceaseless ambition. The world is watching, breath bated, as the SpaceX team ventures further into the final frontier.
An intricate dance of preparation and testing is unfolding at SpaceX's South Texas facilities. To ready Ship 25 for its star turn in the next integrated flight test, the teams have thrown themselves into a thorough engine test campaign. They're leaving no stone unturned, from a spin prime test all the way to a six-engine static fire test of the ship's formidable Raptor engines.
Learning from the first flight's successes and challenges, the engineers have made tweaks to the ship's engine shielding and internal tank structure. Using the robust SpaceX LR11000 crane for additional support to the tanks during the alterations, they've ensured the vehicle is primed for testing.
Upon completing the necessary modifications, the engineers removed the crane and freed the aft flaps. The stage was then set for the spin prime test on June 14, where propellants were loaded onto the ship. The process simulates the start-up sequence of the engine, spinning the engine oxidizer pump to full power — minus the actual ignition.
In today's episode, we're diving deep into the surprising aftermath of SpaceX's Starship launch on April 20, 2023. When the Port Isabel residents awoke to a dust-covered town following the monumental event, many speculated that it was debris from the disintegrated launch pad. But was it really? Dr. Phil Metzger, a seasoned planetary scientist, steps in with a spectral analysis that may shift our perspective. We'll discuss his findings, the implications for NASA's lunar launch pads, and what this means for the future of space travel. Plus, we'll touch on the subsequent FAA grounding and what SpaceX might be doing differently in the next launch.
As we prepare to embark on this intriguing journey into the residual effects of a pivotal moment in space history, it's time to ask the question: was it dust from the launch pad or just a sandy day at the beach for Port Isabel residents?
The Starship system is a fully reusable, two‑stage‑to‑orbit super heavy‑lift launch vehicle under development by SpaceX. The system is composed of a booster stage named Super Heavy and a second stage, also called "Starship"
As the countdown for the planned return of astronauts to the moon through NASA's Artemis program runs down to December 2025, looming uncertainties with the development of SpaceX's colossal Starship rocket pose potential delays. This possible setback stems from ongoing "difficulties" in the development of the Starship, a vehicle intended to transport a duo of astronauts to and from the lunar surface.
NASA's Exploration Systems Development Mission Directorate's leader, Jim Free, voiced his worries on Wednesday, hinting at a probable shift of the schedule into 2026. "The current timeline for the first astronaut moon landing under the Artemis program, termed Artemis 3, is set for December 2025," Free expounded during the National Academies’ Aeronautics and Space Engineering Board meeting. He further conveyed apprehension over the challenges faced by SpaceX, which might push the deadline further.
Before undertaking a lunar voyage, the Starship must first prove its capability for orbital travel. SpaceX's first attempt to test this involved an integrated flight of the Starship atop its 33-engine Super Heavy booster. This initiative, launched from SpaceX's Starbase facility in South Texas in April, transmitted essential performance data back to Earth. The company declared the test flight a success, despite the rocket spinning out of control due to multiple engine failures and eventually being destroyed by a self-activated destruction system.
The groundbreaking Vulcan Centaur, the latest addition to the United Launch Alliance (ULA) family of rockets, is on the brink of its maiden voyage, the culmination of years of design, manufacturing, and rigorous testing. This magnificent craft, standing tall at a majestic 202 feet, is set to define the future of space exploration.
As the sun set over the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida on June 7, the Vulcan Centaur achieved a pivotal milestone, successfully executing a critical engine test - the first of its kind for this pioneering machine.
In the world of rocketry, countdowns are moments filled with anticipation and nail-biting suspense. The magic started at T-4.88 seconds, the engine start sequence initiated, as Vulcan Centaur's two main-stage engines roared to life on the launch pad. What followed was a burst of power lasting two seconds, where the engines reached their intended thrust level, and then gradually wound down. This crucial Flight Readiness Firing (FRF) test, as brief as it was significant, encompassed a span of just six seconds.
Powering the Vulcan Centaur's inaugural stage are two BE-4 engines, the brainchild of Blue Origin, while the Centaur V upper stage is propelled by a pair of RL-10 engines. The versatility of this spacecraft does not stop there. The design also allows for the addition of up to six strap-on solid rocket boosters, augmenting its launch capabilities further.
SpaceX kicked off the first Sunday of June with the ignition of a Falcon 9 rocket at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, the inaugural act in what was intended to be a doubleheader of launches. However, the stubborn weather over the Atlantic Ocean had other plans, causing the cancellation of the second liftoff.
Boeing announced on Thursday, alongside NASA, that it would further delay the inaugural crewed launch of its Starliner spacecraft, an unfortunate setback occasioned by the discovery of fresh issues with the spacecraft's systems. In an industry where the tiniest oversight could result in catastrophic failures, the delay might be a disappointing development, but it is also a necessary one.
The Crew Flight Test (CFT) for Starliner, which was previously scheduled for July 21, was to transport a duo of NASA astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS). However, two new issues with Starliner have been discovered, compelling Boeing to press the pause button. One concern revolves around the reliability of the spacecraft's parachute systems, while the other involves a particular type of tape that was unexpectedly found to be combustible.
During a press conference, Boeing's VP and Starliner manager, Mark Nappi, expressed the company's stance: “We’ve decided to stand down the preparation for the CFT mission in order to correct these problems.” He also stated that the decision to delay was taken up to “the top levels of Boeing," involving the CEO, Dave Calhoun.
In this episode, we delve deep into the unprecedented AX-2 mission, a voyage that has made history in multiple ways. From carrying the first Saudi Arabian woman into space, to being commanded by the venerable Peggy Whitson, this mission encapsulates the dynamic shift in space travel. Explore how SpaceX, in partnership with Axiom Space, is democratizing access to space and pioneering the future of commercial spaceflight.
A lawsuit targeting Elon Musk’s SpaceX, initiated by environmental activists and cultural heritage nonprofits, is set to have a new ally on the defense: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The lawsuit was sparked by the fiery outcome of Starship’s maiden flight last month — a stark reminder of the explosive risks tied to pioneering cosmic frontiers.
On Friday, SpaceX filed a motion, asking federal judge Carl Nichols to permit it to rally beside the FAA in defense against the plaintiffs, which include environmental groups and heritage advocates. Surprisingly, according to court documents, the plaintiffs do not object to SpaceX’s intervention. This response isn't entirely unexpected; Jared Margolis, senior attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity and the plaintiffs' lead counsel, commented that intervention by the applicant in cases concerning their permits is fairly standard.
The plaintiffs have accused the FAA of being lax in their duty to conduct comprehensive environmental studies on SpaceX's activities. They contend that the organization should have scrutinized the environmental impacts of launching the world's largest rocket, the Starship, from SpaceX’s Starbase, nestled on the Gulf Coast near Brownsville, Texas.
These concerns have amplified following the explosion of the first test flight, raising questions about the environmental hazards associated with such incidents. According to the plaintiffs, the preventive measures prescribed by the FAA for SpaceX are insufficient to circumvent significant negative effects on endangered species, their habitats, and the tribes who hold the land and wildlife as sacred.
The upcoming Artemis II mission promises a lunar spectacle unlike any we've seen before, and it's all thanks to some groundbreaking laser technology.
Launching aboard the Orion spacecraft from NASA's Space Launch System rocket in November 2024, the mission is set to ferry NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and the Canadian Space Agency's Jeremy Hansen on a ten-day round trip that'll venture beyond the moon. The landmark mission will feature the revolutionary Orion Artemis II Optical Communications System (O2O), marking the first time a crewed lunar flight will make use of advanced laser communications technology.
The O2O system is designed to transmit high-definition images and video of the lunar surface back to Earth at an unprecedented downlink rate of up to 260 megabits per second. This significant leap from the grainy footage captured during the Apollo missions half a century ago could provide us with real-time, high-definition views of the moon.
A recent study featuring new modeling and re-analysis of data collected by the Hubble Space Telescope in 1998 and NASA's Voyager spacecraft has brought forth exciting revelations about the ice giant Uranus. The study, conducted by a team of scientists from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California, led by Julie Castillo-Rogez, suggests that four of Uranus' large moons - Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon - are likely to harbor internal oceans that could be dozens of miles deep.
Uranus, the seventh planet from the Sun, is an enigmatic world that has long captivated scientists and researchers. With a diameter of approximately 31,763 miles (51,118 kilometers), it is surrounded by a plethora of celestial bodies, including 27 known moons and four major rings. The four largest moons, Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon, have diameters ranging from 720 miles (1,160 kilometers) for Ariel to 980 miles (1,580 kilometers) for Titania.
The National Academies' 2023 Planetary Science and Astrobiology Decadal Survey prioritized exploring Uranus, prompting planetary scientists to focus on the ice giant to enhance their understanding of this mysterious planetary system. This groundbreaking study not only informs future missions aimed at investigating these moons but also has implications that extend beyond Uranus, as it explores potential mechanisms and their relevance to other water-rich bodies in the solar system that have limited internal heat.
In an extraordinary event that has rocked the astronomical community, scientists using the Gemini South telescope in Chile, operated by NSF’s NOIRLab, have captured the first-ever evidence of a dying Sun-like star in the act of engulfing an exoplanet. This monumental finding, referred to as the "smoking gun," reveals a long, low-energy outburst from the star, a clear indication of a planet skimming the star's surface. This sighting is of particular interest to our home planet as it could provide insights into the Earth's ultimate destiny, predicted to occur when our Sun reaches its own end-of-life stage, estimated to be in about five billion years.
Astronomers have long studied countless stars at various stages of their evolution to understand the lifecycle of stars and their interactions with neighboring planetary systems as they age. This research has shown that when a Sun-like star approaches the end of its life, it swells anywhere from 100 to 1000 times its original size, potentially swallowing the inner planets of its system. Events like this are speculated to occur only a handful of times each year across the vast expanse of the Milky Way. Past observations have indeed confirmed the aftermath of planetary engulfments, but capturing one in the act had remained elusive until now.
Thanks to the incredible capabilities of the Gemini South Adaptive Optics Imager (GSAOI) on Gemini South, part of the International Gemini Observatory managed by NSF’s NOIRLab, this groundbreaking observation has been made possible. The evidence was gleaned from a "long and low-energy" outburst from a star in the Milky Way, approximately 13,000 light-years from Earth. The event, the spectacular devouring of a planet by a bloated star, offers a sneak peek into the eventual fate of Mercury, Venus, and Earth when our Sun begins its death throes in about five billion years.
On Thursday, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) put a temporary halt to SpaceX's Starship rocket operations after a test flight concluded with an explosive twist just minutes into liftoff, ultimately crashing into the Gulf of Mexico. Launching from Boca Chica, Texas, the colossal rocket - propelled by 33 Raptor engines - dramatically disintegrated mid-flight, around four minutes after takeoff. Notably, the Starship carried no passengers or satellites during this initial trial. As part of standard safety measures, the FAA will keep the rockets grounded while conducting a thorough investigation. The agency seeks to verify that "any system, process, or procedure related to the mishap does not affect public safety," according to their official statement.
SpaceX is targeting as soon as Thursday, April 20 for the first flight test of a fully integrated Starship and Super Heavy rocket from Starbase in Texas. The 62 minute launch window opens at 8:28 a.m. CT and closes at 9:30 a.m. CT.
Starship is a fully reusable transportation system designed to carry both crew and cargo to Earth orbit, help humanity return to the Moon, and travel to Mars and beyond. With a test such as this, success is measured by how much we can learn, which will inform and improve the probability of success in the future as SpaceX rapidly advances development of Starship.
To date, the SpaceX team has completed multiple sub-orbital flight tests of Starship’s upper stage from Starbase, successfully demonstrating an unprecedented approach to controlled flight. These flight tests helped validate the vehicle’s design, proving Starship can fly through the subsonic phase of entry before re-lighting its engines and flipping itself to a vertical configuration for landing.
In addition to the testing of Starship’s upper stage, the team has conducted numerous tests of the Super Heavy rocket, which include the increasingly complex static fires that led to a full-duration 31 Raptor engine test – the largest number of simultaneous rocket engine ignitions in history. The team has also constructed the world’s tallest rocket launch and catch tower. At 146 meters, or nearly 500 feet tall, the launch and catch tower is designed to support vehicle integration, launch, and catch of the Super Heavy rocket booster. For the first flight test, the team will not attempt a vertical landing of Starship or a catch of the Super Heavy booster.
A live webcast of the flight test will begin ~45 minutes before liftoff. As is the case with all developmental testing, this schedule is dynamic and likely to change, so be sure to stay tuned to our social media channels for updates.
As we venture into new territory, we continue to appreciate all of the support and encouragement we have received from those who share our vision of a future where humanity is out exploring among the stars!

Researchers observing with NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope have pinpointed silicate cloud features in a distant planet’s atmosphere. The atmosphere is constantly rising, mixing, and moving during its 22-hour day, bringing hotter material up and pushing colder material down. The resulting brightness changes are so dramatic that it is the most variable planetary-mass object known to date. The team, led by Brittany Miles of the University of Arizona, also made extraordinarily clear detections of water, methane and carbon monoxide with Webb’s data, and found evidence of carbon dioxide. This is the largest number of molecules ever identified all at once on a planet outside our solar system.
Cataloged as VHS 1256 b, the planet is about 40 light-years away and orbits not one, but two stars over a 10,000-year period. “VHS 1256 b is about four times farther from its stars than Pluto is from our Sun, which makes it a great target for Webb,” Miles said. “That means the planet’s light is not mixed with light from its stars.” Higher up in its atmosphere, where the silicate clouds are churning, temperatures reach a scorching 1,500 degrees Fahrenheit (830 degrees Celsius).
In this episode, we delve into the ambitious Polaris Dawn mission, set to launch in July 2023 on a Falcon 9 rocket.

NASA is set to invest nearly $1 billion in a tug to deorbit the International Space Station (ISS) at the end of the decade. The initiative is part of the agency's fiscal year 2024 budget proposal, aimed at providing redundancy and ensuring the safe disposal of the station. The budget outlines a 7.1% increase from 2023, totaling $27.2 billion.
The ISS deorbit tug is one of the major new initiatives in NASA's 2024 budget proposal. It will be utilized for the final lowering of the station's orbit, ensuring reentry over the South Pacific. The agency first indicated its plans for the tug in August last year but offered few specifics about the vehicle.
The project has been allocated $180 million in the budget, which NASA Associate Administrator for Space Operations, Kathy Lueders, describes as a "healthy start." While exact costs will depend on industry proposals, the agency estimates a total cost just under $1 billion.

This mission marked the second attempt to launch four people to the International Space Station (ISS) after an issue with the TEA-TEB engine ignition system scrubbed Monday’s attempt. To allow for continued American presence aboard the ISS, Axiom gave up a seat aboard Soyuz MS-18 in April 2021, allowing NASA astronaut Mark Vande Hei to fly.
Overall, the launch was a smooth countdown with no constraints from the vehicle or weather standpoints. SpaceX and NASA monitored weather along the eastern seaboard in case of an in-flight abort. The crew of four donned their spacesuits inside the Neil Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building ahead of the launch.
Endeavour docked to the zenith docking port on the ISS’ Harmony module and will remain docked to the station for the duration of the mission. This allows it to be used as an “emergency lifeboat” should something go wrong while at the ISS.
The sale of United Launch Alliance (ULA), one of the world's most important rocket companies, may be imminent. Potential buyers have been contacted about the opportunity, and investment firm Morgan Stanley and consulting firm Bain & Company are managing the transaction. ULA was officially formed in 2005 as a merger of Lockheed Martin and Boeing's launch businesses, each taking a 50 percent stake, and has held a monopoly on launching national security missions. However, the emergence of SpaceX in the early 2010s disrupted ULA's profitable arrangement, and in recent years, SpaceX has dominated ULA in terms of cadence.

On February 9th, NASA announced that it had selected Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket to launch two Escape and Plasma Acceleration and Dynamics Explorers (ESCAPADE) spacecraft to Mars. This marks the first NASA award for New Glenn, a large rocket that Blue Origin has been working on for several years but has yet to launch.
The award, a task order under NASA’s Venture-Class Acquisition of Dedicated and Rideshare (VADR) contract, is valued at $20 million, with $6 million already obligated to date. Neither NASA nor Blue Origin provided additional details about the award. Blue Origin did not respond to questions about the award, including whether the launch would be a dedicated mission or if the ESCAPADE spacecraft will fly as rideshare payloads on another mission.
ESCAPADE is part of NASA's Small Innovative Missions for Planetary Exploration (SIMPLEx) program, cost-capped at $55 million each. NASA selected ESCAPADE in 2019 as one of three missions in the program, envisioning launching all three as rideshares on other missions. However, NASA removed ESCAPADE from the Psyche launch in 2020 after concluding that a change in that mission’s trajectory, linked to a change in launch vehicles from Falcon 9 to Falcon Heavy, would not allow ESCAPADE to go into Mars orbit as originally designed.
That put the ESCAPADE mission in jeopardy, but in 2021, Rocket Lab announced it would develop redesigned versions of the spacecraft for launch in 2024, and the mission passed a review later that year allowing it to proceed into full-scale development. Each ESCAPADE spacecraft weighs about 120 kilograms, excluding propellant, according to a 2022 conference paper about the mission.
"We’re thrilled NASA’s Launch Services Program has selected New Glenn to launch the instruments that will study Mars’s magnetosphere," said Jarrett Jones, senior vice president for New Glenn at Blue Origin, in a company statement.
While Blue Origin has won business from several commercial customers, including Amazon, which awarded the company a contract last April for 12 launches of Project Kuiper satellites, with an option for 15 more, winning the NASA award for its New Glenn rocket is a significant milestone for the company.
The New Glenn rocket is designed to place up to 45 metric tons into low Earth orbit, making it significantly oversized to launch ESCAPADE as a dedicated mission. It remains unclear whether the spacecraft will fly as rideshare payloads on another mission.
According to a conference publication, ESCAPADE has a total cost of $78.5 million, a figure that includes launch and project reserves. The mission follows a long tradition of NASA Mars science and exploration missions, and the ESCAPADE spacecraft will study Mars's magnetosphere.
Other SIMPLEx missions have run into rideshare launch challenges. The delay of Psyche’s launch from August 2022 to October 2023 meant that Janus, another mission in the SIMPLEx program, could no longer reach its planned asteroids. Janus was formally removed from the Psyche launch in November 2021, and the mission’s principal investigator said on January 25th that his team is looking for alternative missions for the twin spacecraft, which are nearly complete.
NASA continues to evaluate data and learn more about the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket’s debut performance during the agency’s Nov. 16 Artemis I launch. Following an initial data assessment and review that determined the SLS rocket met or exceeded all performance expectations, SLS engineers are now taking a closer look at the Moon rocket’s performance to prepare for the first crewed Artemis missions.
Building off the assessment conducted shortly after launch, the preliminary post-flight data indicates that all SLS systems performed exceptionally and that the designs are ready to support a crewed flight on Artemis II. The post-flight analysis team will continue reviewing data and conducting final reporting’s.

A federal judge on Friday rejected Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s bid to move or delay a trial over a misleading tweet about a potential buyout of the electric automaker, setting the stage for the billionaire to be thrust into a legal drama amid the turmoil of his Twitter takeover.
The decision by U.S. District Judge Edward Chen came during a hearing held in San Francisco federal court to go over the final details of a trial scheduled to begin Tuesday with jury selection.
SpaceX has assembled Starship 24 and Super Heavy Booster 7 for the third time in three months, following separate tests, repairs, and modifications. The fully-stacked rocket measures around 120 meters tall, making it the largest ever assembled. Starship is far larger than the Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy rockets currently operated by SpaceX and is also intended to be fully reusable. If the company can achieve its technical goals, the cost of launching with Starship could be about a tenth of that of Falcon, while carrying 5-20 times more payload per launch, potentially revolutionizing access to orbit. #spacex #elonmusk #starship

A Texas-based startup is developing a ground-breaking technology that may completely alter how we construct on the moon. The Austin-based startup ICON is creating a 3D printer that melts the lunar dirt and builds structures layer by layer using a laser system. Because it would enable us to construct nearly any architecture on the moon and save NASA billions of dollars in the process, this technology could have a significant impact on space exploration.
Aluminized materials and other building supplies had to be launched into space by NASA, which made construction on the moon historically very expensive. Considering that each kilogram of freight delivered to the moon costs more than $1 million, finding a technique to construct utilizing the given resources is important.

SpaceX is gearing up for a key test of its immense rocket that is designed for commercial launches, as well as the Mars mission Elon Musk has long sought. Near a beach east of Brownsville, Texas, employees at Mr. Musk’s space company are preparing for the inaugural orbital flight of Starship, the towering rocket system the company has been developing for years to one day launch into deep space. The initial test mission would last around 90 minutes, beginning with a fiery blast of the ship’s booster over the Gulf of Mexico, SpaceX has said in a regulatory filing. It isn’t clear when SpaceX will attempt the first flight, after dates Mr. Musk has discussed came and went. Some officials at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, a customer for a version of Starship, previously said they thought the mission could occur in early December. Mr. Musk, who acquired Twitter Inc. and recently delivered Tesla Inc.’s first all-electric semitrailer trucks, has described getting Starship into orbit as one of his main goals. At SpaceX, which Mr. Musk founded in 2002 and still leads, he has said the rocket system is consuming significant resources and faces formidable technical hurdles. 00:00:00 - Let's GO GO GO! 00:00:01 - SpaceX starship orbital flight test overview 00:01:00 - History of Starship orbital flight test 2021 00:01:30 - Steps for Orbital Flight test 00:01:40 - Orbital Launch Mount 00:03:00 - Booster 7 00:03:30 - Booster 9 00:04:00 - NASA HLS Starship 00:04:45 - Starship Setbacks 00:05:45 - NASA Admin questions Starship Production 00:06:00 - Gwynn Shotwell response to NASA 00:07:15 - Postponed Starship Orbital Flights & FAA ►► https://starshipshirts.com►► https://discord.gg/dMXghpX►► https://twitch.tv/spacenewspod►► https://facebook.com/spacenewspod►► https://patreon.com/spacenewspod►► https://twitter.com/spacenewspod►► https://instagram.com/thespacenewspod►► https://gofund.me/0c6956f4
NASA Administrator Bill Nelson met with Gwen Shotwell, President and Chief Operating Officer of SpaceX, during Kennedy Center Honors this month. SpaceX is currently the second largest contractor for NASA, and is in the process of developing the spacecraft that will take humans to the moon. Nelson expressed concerns about SpaceX CEO Elon Musk's involvement in the company, as well as his distractions on social media platform Twitter. Shotwell reassured Nelson that he had nothing to worry about. NASA has made significant investments in SpaceX, including awarding the company a $3 billion contract to land astronauts on Mars by 2025, and a $1.5 billion contract for a second moon landing.
SpaceX is building a gigantic rocket, 400 feet tall, down in Boca, Chica, Texas, it's star Base, and I spent about 10 months there. And I want to share these experiences with you.
I think everybody that I met down there was really nice. I don't think there was only one person. And this is the interesting thing, this is the funny thing that I wanna tell you. It was a couple days before Elon did his February talk about a February, 2022.
Talk about the state of star base and SpaceX's Starship. So I was there to cover the event. I was there to cover the stacking of the Starship, all that stuff. I was right down there. I was in the trenches for like 10 months. And this is the thing, I parked right around here, actually. It was. I was trying to get a shot.
You can kind of get a good shot from like right around here. And if you look over, you can see the orbital launch mount over here, right? The orbital launchpad, the orbit launch mount. You could see everything stacked up and I was filming from over here and for some reason there was this lady, and this is a weird story.
The Artemis program is named after the Greek goddess of the Moon and aims to establish a sustainable presence on the Moon by the end of the decade. Artemis 2 is the second mission in the program, following the Artemis 1 test flight which successfully splashed down in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of San Diego.
The Artemis 2 mission will be crewed by four astronauts, who will travel to the Moon in the Space Launch System rocket and the Orion spacecraft. The mission will involve the astronauts spending about a week on the Moon's surface, conducting a variety of scientific experiments and demonstrating technologies needed for future exploration of the Moon and beyond.

NASA’s Orion spacecraft splashed down in the Pacific Ocean, west of Baja California, at 9:40 a.m. PST Sunday after a record-breaking mission, traveling more than 1.4 million miles on a path around the Moon and returning safely to Earth, completing the Artemis I flight test.
NASA’s Orion spacecraft is on course for its return to Earth on Sunday, Dec. 11. The spacecraft made its second and final close approach to the Moon at 10:43 a.m. CST Monday, Dec. 5, just before its return powered flyby burn, passing 80.6 miles above the lunar surface.
Starshield leverages SpaceX's Starlink technology and launch capability to support national security efforts. While Starlink is designed for consumer and commercial use, Starshield is designed for government use.
Prototype design for a powerful nuclear reactor for the space program has been completed and some components have been built, according to researchers. ►► https://starshipshirts.com►► https://discord.gg/dMXghpX►► https://twitch.tv/spacenewspod►► https://facebook.com/spacenewspod►► https://patreon.com/spacenewspod►► https://twitter.com/spacenewspod►► https://instagram.com/thespacenewspod
NASA’s Orion spacecraft is on course for its return to Earth on Sunday, Dec. 11. The spacecraft made its second and final close approach to the Moon at 10:43 a.m. CST Monday, Dec. 5, just before its return powered flyby burn, passing 80.6 miles above the lunar surface.
The burn, which used the spacecraft’s main engine on the European-built service module, lasted 3 minutes, 27 seconds, and changed the velocity of the spacecraft by about 655 mph (961 feet per second). It was the final major engine maneuver of the flight test.
“Orion is heading home! Today the team achieved another momentous accomplishment, flying Orion just 80 miles from the surface of the Moon. The lunar flyby enabled the spacecraft to harness the Moon’s gravity and slingshot it back toward Earth for splashdown,” said Administrator Bill Nelson. “When Orion re-enters Earth’s atmosphere in just a few days, it will come back hotter and faster than ever before – the ultimate test before we put astronauts on board. Next up, re-entry!”
NASA’s Space Launch System (SLS) rocket with the Orion spacecraft aboard is seen at sunrise atop the mobile launcher at Launch Pad 39B, Monday, Aug. 29, 2022, as the Artemis I launch teams load more than 700,000 gallons of cryogenic propellants including liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen as the launch countdown progresses at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. NASA’s Artemis I flight test is the first integrated test of the agency’s deep space exploration systems: the Orion spacecraft, SLS rocket, and supporting ground systems.

Artemis one successfully launched from Kennedy space center in Florida and the mobile launch system, the infrastructure and the mobile launcher. They sustained a little bit of damage during this launch. Engineers have determined overall that the mobile launcher and the pad systems used for the SLS launch, all performed as designed during the launch.
Flight Controllers in the White Flight Control Room at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston successfully performed a burn to insert Orion into a distant retrograde orbit by firing the orbital maneuvering system engine for 1 minutes and 28 seconds at 4:52 p.m. CST, propelling the spacecraft at 363 feet per second. Shortly before conducting the burn, Orion was traveling more than 57,00 miles above the lunar surface, marking the farthest distance it will reach from the Moon during the mission. While in lunar orbit, flight controllers will monitor key systems and perform checkouts while in the environment of deep space.
The acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk began on April 14, 2022, and concluded on October 27, 2022. Business magnate Elon Musk began buying shares of American social media company Twitter, Inc. in January 2022, eventually becoming the company's largest shareholder in April with a 9.1 percent ownership stake.
On its sixth day into the Artemis I mission, Orion successfully completed its fourth orbital trajectory correction burn using the auxiliary engines at 1:44 a.m. CST ahead the first of two maneuvers required to enter a distant retrograde orbit around the Moon. The first three trajectory correction burns provided an opportunity to fire all three thruster types on Orion with the first using the large orbital maneuvering system engine, the second using the small reaction control system thrusters, and the third using the medium-sized auxiliary engines. ►► https://starshipshirts.com►► https://discord.gg/dMXghpX►► https://twitch.tv/spacenewspod►► https://facebook.com/spacenewspod►► https://patreon.com/spacenewspod►► https://twitter.com/spacenewspod►► https://instagram.com/thespacenewspod►► https://gofund.me/0c6956f4
NASA has awarded a contract modification to SpaceX to further develop its Starship human landing system to meet agency requirements for long-term human exploration of the Moon under Artemis. With this addition, SpaceX will provide a second crewed landing demonstration mission in 2027 as part of NASA’s Artemis IV mission.
In an email early Wednesday morning, billionaire Twitter owner Elon Musk gave the remaining employees at the company an ultimatum. They can stay and sign on to a “hardcore” culture of “long hours at high intensity”or leave. Employees have until 5PM ET today to fill out an online form with their decision.

On Wednesday, March 3, Elon Musk's SpaceX Starship serial number (SN10) successfully completed SpaceX’s third high-altitude flight test of a Starship prototype from our site in Boca Chica, Texas.
Similar to the high-altitude flight tests of Starship SN8 and SN9, SN10 was powered through ascent by three Raptor engines, each shutting down in sequence prior to the vehicle reaching apogee – approximately 10 km in altitude. SN10 performed a propellant transition to the internal header tanks, which hold landing propellant, before reorienting itself for reentry and a controlled aerodynamic descent.

SpaceX is targeting Tuesday, October 6 at 7:29 a.m. EDT, 11:29 UTC, for its thirteenth Starlink mission, which will launch 60 Starlink satellites to orbit. Falcon 9 will lift off from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
Falcon 9’s first stage previously supported launch of Crew Dragon’s first flight to the International Space Station with NASA astronauts onboard and the ANASIS-II mission. Following stage separation, SpaceX will land Falcon 9’s first stage on the “Of Course I Still Love You” droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean. One of Falcon 9’s fairing halves supported two previous Starlink launches.
The Starlink satellites will deploy approximately 1 hour and 1 minute after liftoff.
SpaceX is standing down from the launch attempt of its thirteenth Starlink mission due to severe weather in the recovery area, which is likely to persist for a couple days. A new target launch date will be announced once confirmed.

An international team of astronomers today announced the discovery of a rare molecule — phosphine — in the clouds of Venus. On Earth, this gas is only made industrially or by microbes that thrive in oxygen-free environments. Astronomers have speculated for decades that high clouds on Venus could offer a home for microbes — floating free of the scorching surface but needing to tolerate very high acidity. The detection of phosphine could point to such extra-terrestrial “aerial” life.

Starlink is a satellite constellation being constructed by American company SpaceX to provide satellite Internet access. The constellation will consist of thousands of mass-produced small satellites in low Earth orbit, working in combination with ground transceivers.
SpaceX’s Starship system represents a fully reusable transportation system designed to service Earth orbit needs as well as missions to the Moon and Mars. This two-stage vehicle—composed of the Super Heavyrocket (booster) and Starship (spacecraft) as shown in Figure 1—is powered by sub-cooled methane and oxygen. Starship is designed to evolve rapidly to meet near term and future customer needs while maintaining the highest level of reliability.
NASA has awarded SpaceX with a resupply contract for the Lunar Gateway. Built on the foundations of the successful agreement to resupply the ISS, SpaceX will employ its Falcon Heavy rocket to launch a new spacecraft called the Dragon XL to the lunar outpost under a Gateway Logistics Services (GLS) contract.
Isro said that the launch of Gisat-1 onboard GSLV-F10, planned for March 05, 2020, has been postponed due to technical reasons.

Boeing Co has ousted Chief Executive Officer Dennis Muilenburg, following a year of intense scrutiny and industrial setbacks set off by twin fatal crashes of its 737 MAX jetliner.
Boeing's Crew Space Transportation (CST)-100 Starliner spacecraft is being developed in collaboration with NASA's Commercial Crew Program. The Starliner was designed to accommodate seven passengers, or a mix of crew and cargo, for missions to low-Earth orbit. For NASA service missions to the International Space Station, it will carry up to four NASA-sponsored crew members and time-critical scientific research. The Starliner has an innovative, weldless structure and is reusable up to 10 times with a six-month turnaround time. It also features wireless internet and tablet technology for crew interfaces
To explore the solar system beyond our planet, one important factor is the ability to locate water which can be used for drinking and for creating rocket fuel. To assist in the hunt for water on neighboring Mars, NASA has released a "treasure map" of potential ice locations on the red planet.
Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin space venture says it’s targeting Tuesday for the next uncrewed flight test of its New Shepard suborbital spaceship, with a cargo manifest that should warm kids’ hearts for the holidays.
SpaceX CRS-19, also known as SpX-19, is a Commercial Resupply Service mission to the International Space Station originally manifested to be launched on 4 December 2019 but afterwards re-scheduled for 5 December 2019 due to high altitude winds and variable winds around the droneship "Of Course I Still Love You".
SpaceX is targeting Wednesday, December 4 for launch of its nineteenth Commercial Resupply Services mission (CRS-19) at 12:51 p.m. EST, or 17:51 UTC, from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida. Dragon will separate from Falcon 9’s second stage about nine minutes after liftoff and attach to the space station on Saturday, December 7. A backup launch opportunity is available on Thursday, December 5 at 12:29 p.m. EST, or 17:29 UTC.
SpaceX is gearing up for what could be a frenetic December to close the books on 2019 and set up a very busy 2020.
Dust storms are common on Mars. But every decade or so, something unpredictable happens: A series of runaway storms breaks out, covering the entire planet in a dusty haze.
Cybertruck is built with an exterior shell made for ultimate durability and passenger protection. Starting with a nearly impenetrable exoskeleton, every component is designed for superior strength and endurance, from Ultra-Hard 30X Cold-Rolled stainless-steel structural skin to Tesla armor glass.

One year ago, on Nov. 5, 2018, NASA's Voyager 2 became only the second spacecraft in history to leave the heliosphere — the protective bubble of particles and magnetic fields created by our Sun. At a distance of about 11 billion miles (18 billion kilometers) from Earth — well beyond the orbit of Pluto — Voyager 2 had entered interstellar space, or the region between stars. Today, five new research papers in the journal Nature Astronomy describe what scientists observed during and since Voyager 2's historic crossing.

The company opted to make the habitat inflatable so that it could fit on a normal, heavy lift rocket but expand to provide astronauts as much space as possible.

With data from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, water vapour has been detected in the atmosphere of a super-Earth within the habitable zone by University College London (UCL) researchers in a world first. K2-18b, which is eight times the mass of Earth, is now the only planet orbiting a star outside the Solar System, or exoplanet, known to have both water and temperatures that could support life.
The discovery, published today in Nature Astronomy, is the first successful atmospheric detection of an exoplanet orbiting in its star’s habitable zone, at a distance where water can exist in liquid form.
First author, Dr Angelos Tsiaras (UCL Centre for Space Exochemistry Data,CSED), said: “Finding water on a potentially habitable world other than Earth is incredibly exciting. K2-18b is not ‘Earth 2.0’ as it is significantly heavier and has a different atmospheric composition. However, it brings us closer to answering the fundamental question: Is the Earth unique?”
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk believes that Starship could be capable of pad aborts in the event of a Super Heavy booster failure before liftoff.
Elon Musk spoke recently at the AI conference in China. Here are a few clips of his thoughts on area 51, aliens and making life multi-planetary.

Located about 35 miles east of Orlando, NASA's Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Air Force Station are two connected facilities that make up the spaceport. The site was chosen in the 1950s for its proximity to the equator, meaning rockets get an extra boost from the Earth's rotation during liftoff. Rockets launching from pads that dot the coastline also mean they immediately start flying over the Atlantic Ocean, a precaution that protects the public in the event of a failure.

Shortly after 7pm ET (23:00 UTC) SpaceX began counting down to the 100-meter hop test for its Starhopper vehicle. And while there were some definitely rocket-like noises at T-0, the Raptor engine did not ignite. There may have been a problem with the igniters, as Musk noted on Twitter shortly after the test, "Raptor uses dual redundant torch igniters. Better long-term, but more finicky in development." The next launch attempt will occur no earlier than Tuesday.

An atomic clock that could pave the way for autonomous deep space travel was successfully activated last week and is ready to begin its year-long tech demo, the mission team confirmed on Friday, Aug. 23, 2019. Launched in June, NASA's Deep Space Atomic Clock is a critical step toward enabling spacecraft to safely navigate themselves in deep space rather than rely on the time-consuming process of receiving directions from Earth.

Thirty years ago, on Aug. 25, 1989, NASA's Voyager 2 spacecraft made a close flyby of Neptune, giving humanity its first close-up of our solar system's eighth planet. Marking the end of the Voyager mission's Grand Tour of the solar system's four giant planets — Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune — that first was also a last: No other spacecraft has visited Neptune since.

Starship and Super Heavy will launch from Florida, with the current plan to build a second launch mount at its current LC-39A launch pad at Kennedy Space Center, which it leases from NASA and currently uses for Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launches. After launching from LC-39A, the current plan is to have Starship return to Landing Zone 1 (LZ-1), which is SpaceX’s current landing area for Falcon first-stage boosters at nearby Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. Super Heavy would land downrange, aboard a drone barge ship, like the twin “Of Course I Still Love You” and “Just Read The Instructions” ships that SpaceX uses now, depending on mission conditions on both its East and West coast launches.

This Phase Two effort of CIP’s proof of concept experiment to grow potatoes in simulated Martian conditions began on February 14, 2016 when a tuber was planted in a specially constructed CubeSat contained environment built by engineers from University of Engineering and Technology (UTEC) in Lima based upon designs and advice provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration in Ames Research Center (NASA ARC), California. Preliminary results are positive.

The newfound exoplanet — a so-called super-Earth named GJ 357 d — lies 31 light-years away from our solar system. It’s about six times more massive than our planet and orbits in its host star’s habitable zone, where water could exist in liquid form on the surface.

Elon Musk said in a recent Time.com interview " ...This is gonna sound pretty crazy, but I think we could land on the moon in less than two years. Certainly with an uncrewed vehicle I believe we could land on the moon in two years. So then maybe within a year or two of that we could be sending crew. I would say four years at the outside. "

Aside from widespread panic and confusion, not much. Earth would cool as it does after sunset, and we would be kept warm by the heat retained in the atmosphere, oceans, and land as we are every night.
This is with the assumption that the Sun is simply "frozen" for an hour -- say, a giant bushel is put over it. If you actually turned off all fusion in the Sun, it would collapse and then explode, and then we'd have other fish to fry (although it would take longer than an hour for the explosion to happen). Don't get confused -- the Sun doesn't have enough mass to become a supernova, this would be a different process, which won't happen because you can't turn off all fusion in the Sun. Though there is a small but finite probability that it can stop right now on its own. But it won't. Very probably. Very. But it could.

Earth had a close encounter this morning when Asteroid 2019 OK sped by at 1:22 GMT, at a speed of nearly 55,000 miles (88,500 kilometers) per hour. The closest it came to Earth was just under 45,000 miles (72,500 km), a safe distance, but still much less than the distance between the Earth and Moon.

It reveals that an unauthorized Raspberry Pi computer connected to the JPL servers was targeted by hackers, who then moved laterally further into the NASA network.

India plans to have its own space station in the future and conduct separate missions to study Sun and Venus, it said on Thursday, as the nation moves to bolster its status as a leader in space technologies and inspire the young minds to take an interest in scientific fields.
India’s space agency said today that it will begin working on its space station following its first manned mission to space, called Gaganyaan (which means “space vehicle” in Sanskrit), in 2022 — just in time to commemorate 75 years of the country’s independence from Britain. The government has sanctioned Rs 10,000 crores ($1.5 billion) for Gaganyaan mission, it was unveiled today.

Tesla hosts their 2019 annual shareholders meeting where they highlight the future of Tesla as a company. We ended the quarter with $2.2 billion of cash and cash equivalents, a $1.5 billion reduction from the end of 2018. This reduction was driven by a $920 million convertible bond repayment and an increase in the number of vehicles in transit to customers at the end of Q1. In addition, we began production and deliveries of Model 3 vehicles for overseas markets. As noted in our Q1 2019 Vehicle Production & Deliveries letter, due to unforeseen challenges we had only delivered half of the quarter’s numbers ten days before the end of the quarter. This caused a large number of vehicle deliveries to shift into Q2.

President Donald Trump tweeted that the Moon is part of the Mars mission and A MARS HELICOPTER!
NASA also is enabling private astronaut missions of up to 30 days on the International Space Station to perform duties that fall into the approved commercial and marketing activities outlined in the directive released Friday, with the first mission as early as 2020. A new NASA Research Announcement focus area issued today outlines the path for those future private astronaut missions. If supported by the market, the agency can accommodate up to two short-duration private astronaut missions per year to the International Space Station. These missions will be privately funded, dedicated commercial spaceflights. Private astronaut missions will use a U.S. spacecraft developed under NASA’s Commercial Crew Program. The commercial entity developing the mission will determine crew composition for each mission and ensure private astronauts meet NASA’s medical standards and the training and certification procedures for International Space Station crew members. Market studies identified private astronaut missions to low-Earth orbit as a key element to demonstrate demand and reduce risk for future commercial destinations in low-Earth orbit.
Engineers craft new plan to unstick NASA's Mars InSight lander. By using InSight's lander arm to lift the support structure of the lander's burrowing mole, engineers aim to get a better look at the blockage.

In 2020 three rovers, one from the US, one from Europe and one from China will depart for Mars with a single goal; to look for past or present life on The Red Planet.
The rovers will also provide a critical step in the efforts to return samples of Martian regolith to the Earth. This would give scientists the opportunity to learn a great many more details about Mars and its habitability, since laboratories on Earth have much more sophisticated instruments than the ones riding on the rovers on Mars.

Over the last two months, NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine has repeatedly said the agency's ambitious new Artemis plan for sending humans to the Moon in 2024 will not require raiding other areas of its budget, such as its broad array of science programs, technology research, or aeronautics work.
The reason, he said, is simple. The surest way to torpedo support for a program inside the agency is to take funding from someone else to pay for the new plan, and the surest way to lose support in Congress is to take work away from various field centers around the country.
"We can't cannibalize one part of the agency to feed another part of the agency," Bridenstine told Ars in April, which reflects comments he has made many times. "We can't cut the Science Mission Directorate to feed human exploration. We can't cannibalize the International Space Station to feed the Moon mission. So if we go in those directions, which have all been tried in the past, it never works politically. We can't do the same thing again and be upset that it didn't work."
NASA has selected three commercial Moon landing service providers that will deliver science and technology payloads under Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) as part of the Artemis program. Each commercial lander will carry NASA-provided payloads that will conduct science investigations and demonstrate advanced technologies on the lunar surface, paving the way for NASA astronauts to land on the lunar surface by 2024.

Elon Musk’s second-most famous business may soon top his first.
The value of SpaceX has risen to $33.3 billion, people familiar with the company’s recent fundraising. In an amendment of its April fundraising effort, a filing last week from SpaceX showed the company’s latest round brought in $536 million at a price of $204 a share. SpaceX has raised just over $1 billion this year, as the company accelerates fundraising to develop its plan to beam high-speed internet to anywhere on Earth.
Additionally, Musk’s space company is now more valuable than his electric vehicle company. Tesla shares closed down on Friday giving the company a market value of $32.8 billion – just below SpaceX’s valuation.
SpaceX’s valuation has risen steadily as the company has raised funding for rockets, spacecraft and more over the past decade. Most recently, SpaceX was reportedly valued at $30.5 billion.The company has been able to draw investment from private markets with ease, as a person familiar with SpaceX’s fundraising this year said both its equity raises were oversubscribed. In the most recent round, investor demand meant SpaceX could have raised between $300 million to $400 million more than it did, the person said.

As human ancestors went from swinging through trees to walking on two legs, they may have received a boost from an unlikely source: ancient supernovas.
These powerful stellar explosions may have showered Earth with enough energy to shift the planet's climate, bathing Earth in electrons and sparking powerful, lightning-filled storms, according to a new hypothesis.
Lightning then could have kindled raging wildfires that scorched African landscapes. As savanna replaced the forest habitat, early humans that lived there may have been pushed to walk on two legs, the new study suggests.
However, don't go jumping to conclusions just yet. Many factors likely contributed to the evolution of bipedalism, a process that began many millions of years before these stellar explosions took place, one expert told Live Science.
Gwynne Shotwell said in a meeting at MIT on the 29th of May that SpaceX will be sending cargo to Mars in 4 Years. Also, 'Fettuccine' may be most obvious sign of life on Mars, researchers report

As you fall toward the black hole, you move faster and faster, accelerated by its gravity. Your feet feel a stronger gravitational pull than your head, because they are closer to the black hole. As a result, your body is stretched apart. For small black holes, this stretching is so strong that your body is completely torn apart before you reach the event horizon.
If you fall into a supermassive black hole, your body remains intact, even as you cross the event horizon. But soon thereafter you reach the central singularity, where you are squashed into a single point of infinite density. You have become one with the black hole. Unfortunately, you are unable to write home about the experience.

Regarding the risks of space colonization, harm to our biology is first on the list of concerns, followed by risks to our individual psyches and our ability to work cooperatively as a team. Space is a risky place, given the far-from-optimal conditions of long flights in compact spacecraft. There are plenty of challenges that prospective astronauts should cautiously consider before signing up for a trip to deep space.

It is a huge group of galaxies forming a giant sheet-like pattern. It is about 10 billion light-years long, 7.2 billion light-years wide, and almost 1 billion light-years thick. It is about 10 billion light-years away in the constellations of Hercules and Corona Borealis, hence its name.

While headlines routinely report on "close shaves" and "near-misses" when near-Earth objects (NEOs) such as asteroids or comets pass relatively close to Earth, the real work of preparing for the possibility of a NEO impact with Earth goes on mostly out of the public eye.
For more than 20 years, NASA and its international partners have been scanning the skies for NEOs, which are asteroids and comets that orbit the Sun and come within 30 million miles (50 million kilometers) of Earth's orbit. International groups, such as NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office (PDCO), the European Space Agency's Space Situational Awareness-NEO Segment and the International Asteroid Warning Network (IAWN) have made better communication of the hazards posed by NEOs a top priority.
NASA’s InSight lander set down the French SEIS seismometer on the surface of Mars. On 6 April, on the 128th Martian day or ‘sol’ of the mission, a quiet but distinct seismic signal was detected similar to quakes detected on the surface of the Moon by the Apollo missions.
NASA's next Mars mission is slowly coming together in a "clean room" in California. Technicians at the agency's Jet Propulsion Laboratory assembled the capsule that will keep the Mars 2020 rover secure for its wild ride to the Red Planet's surface.

The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) — a planet-scale array of eight ground-based radio telescopes forged through international collaboration — was designed to capture images of a black hole. In coordinated press conferences across the globe, EHT researchers revealed that they succeeded, unveiling the first direct visual evidence of the supermassive black hole in the centre of Messier 87 and its shadow.
The shadow of a black hole seen here is the closest we can come to an image of the black hole itself, a completely dark object from which light cannot escape. The black hole’s boundary — the event horizon from which the EHT takes its name — is around 2.5 times smaller than the shadow it casts and measures just under 40 billion km across. While this may sound large, this ring is only about 40 microarcseconds across — equivalent to measuring the length of a credit card on the surface of the Moon.
Although the telescopes making up the EHT are not physically connected, they are able to synchronize their recorded data with atomic clocks — hydrogen masers — which precisely time their observations. These observations were collected at a wavelength of 1.3 mm during a 2017 global campaign. Each telescope of the EHT produced enormous amounts of data – roughly 350 terabytes per day – which was stored on high-performance helium-filled hard drives. These data were flown to highly specialised supercomputers — known as correlators — at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy and MIT Haystack Observatory to be combined. They were then painstakingly converted into an image using novel computational tools developed by the collaboration.
