Freaky that this “impossible” feat was successful in… *checks calendar* the 80’s
🚨 SPACEX JUST DID THE IMPOSSIBLE The ship orbited Earth 14 times, came home, and the tower snatched it right out of the air. While everyone else's tech was crashing this week, Elon's team made history. Give them their flowers. 👏

I'll remind everyone that SpaceX is not building Starship primarily for NASA's Artemis program. It is building Starship to deploy massive V3 Starlink satellites and orbital data centers at scale, using its own internal cash flow to fund development.
This is wild. Ship 42 just deployed 26 Starlink V3 satellites. Even if SpaceX doesn’t recover Ship 42, the entire Flight 15 mission would cost an estimated $130 million. That’s about the average contract price of a single RS-25 engine for NASA’s SLS. Now imagine Starship putting 100 metric tons into, that’s $1,300/kg, compared with about $1,765/kg for Falcon 9. Falcon 9 is already the most competitive rocket on the market. Add Flight 14 and Starship has put roughly 104 tons into orbit across just two test flights. That’s about 1.7 times what European rockets have delivered to orbit so far this year and about 40% of what Chinese rockets have delivered.

Me watching Starship have engine outs and catastrophic hardware failures on the *checks notes* 15th flight. I called this over half a decade ago. The program is mismanaged and they don't know what they're doing. No way is this going to be a moon lander and this scares me for Ar3

I have to say, the "if you like orange rocket, you want to forget EUS" is a 101 manipulation move by Jared. The "no one want it" is an another. He just cancelled those... Exploration Centaur and the kickstage clearly shows that there is a need for a larger US and co-manifest.

Yes, you can even vote from space! All three US crew members had the privilege of voting from space station. We filled out an electronic ballot and sent it securely to the election officials.

I am begging everyone to exercise even an iota of critical thinking. It cannot fly. You will not be able to hovercraft to work. The gas canisters probably provide only a few seconds of thrust before needing refilling. It was a prop car.

Trust is the real “fuel” of every mission. We had trust in the tech, trust in the team, and I trust in God. Easy to say after the fact, but we lived it. Thank you 🙏🏾💙🧡🇺🇸

Frank Culbertson, Expedition 3 Commander aboard the @Space_Station, captured this photo as smoke rose from the Twin Towers in New York City 25 years ago today. We pause to reflect on that terrible day and pay tribute to the victims, survivors, and heroes of the 9/11 attacks.
