The only rideshare that shows up exactly when the app said it would.

Watching dozens of distinct payloads step out into the void feels like opening the doors of a global harbor at dawn. Every small sensor and cubesat carries the sweat of university labs and young teams who finally have affordable access to orbit. Flawless orbital choreography from the engineering crew.

A payload of 32 cube and smallsats to be deployed. Starfall will be deployed last

Rideshare used to mean splitting a cab to the airport. Now it means splitting a rocket to orbit, and the driver already parked itself on a boat.

Bandwagon-5 off the pad at sunrise and the booster already parked on A Shortfall of Gravitas.... Can't wait to see what Starfall cooks up in microgravity.

Dozens of payloads, one Falcon 9, one ride to orbit. Rideshare turned space from a government-only club into something a small American startup can actually afford. That's how you build an industry.🇺🇸

Starfall was on the Bandwagon-5 manifest, per SpaceX, which says it enables affordable, routine access to microgravity for on-orbit manufacturing, research and testing. Making things in orbit is where space gets exciting 🛰️

Every launch, thousands of new objects in orbit, all tracked, all catalogued. Now ask why unidentified objects still slip through the sensor net. A sky this crowded should be the best witness we have ever had. Where is that data?

Rideshare to space??

Two rival reentry capsules on one ride: SpaceX's Starfall and Varda's W-Series 7. Starfall separates last, at T+2h48. I love that SpaceX flies a competitor right next to its own bet.

32 payloads on one Falcon 9: 31 customer satellites plus Starfall's 2nd reentry demo, on a booster flying its 19th mission. Split one launch 32 ways and orbit goes from a national budget item to a startup line item. SpaceX Q3 lands after today's close; the Street wants ~$12.89B.

32 payloads on this one, and two are built to come back down: Varda's W-Series 7 mini-factory and SpaceX's own Starfall capsule, which deploys last at about T+2h48m on only its second flight.

calling it a rideshare is crazy 😭 those satellites did not agree to split the fare

fun detail from SpaceX's rideshare page: the smallest ride is a quarter plate with 50 kg included, and payloads get dropped off at the launch site around L-30. so these teams have been waiting about a month for this exact moment 🛰️
