  • I'm scared; somebody reassure me

  • Relax bro, it's a meme

  • [Jeff Foust] Revised Artemis lunar lander plans take shape

    Jump

  • Seems pretty optimistic overall

  • Scott Manley's Flight 12 debriefing video

    Jump

  • Flight's not finished until Scott Manley drops a video about it! :)

  • Flight 12 readies for the debut SpaceX's next Ship evolution - NASASpaceFlight.com

    Jump

  • Such a good-looking vehicle imo. I hope it works well!

  • Three's a party: US, China, and now Russia are on the prowl in GEO

    Jump

  • I have a feeling it's only a matter of time before someone escalates, but I really hope that isn't the case.

  • Nasa just killed Artemis: How Billionaires and Bureaucrats Stole the Moon

    Jump

  • First Starship v3 full stack with Booster 19 and Ship 39!

    Jump

  • This site says "Booster 19 is expected to attempt a chopstick catch at the Starbase launch tower after stage separation, as has become standard procedure for Super Heavy."

    I'm not sure this has been confirmed by SpaceX yet. Someone let me know, I really hope they go for it!

    Edit: SpaceX says the booster will land in the Gulf of Mexico this flight

  • Bro that'd be the coolest, craziest thing

  • [Eric Berger] NASA kills lunar space station to focus on ambitious Moon base

    Jump

  • I actually agree with you that NASA has been unproductive and wasteful for a while now. Not always, but certainly when it came to ambitious and inspiring projects. However, I see this as a course correction that puts NASA back on track. Certainly it's a much better plan than they had before. But maybe I'm just being hopeful, or even naive? Time will tell.

  • Modified Vulcan Expected to Launch This Summer

    Jump

  • I wish them luck, seems like they're going to need it!

    After falling far behind the rest of industry, Blue Origin creates new stock option plan

    Jump

  • Already been posted yesterday, sorry

  • [Andrew Jones] Landspace tests 220-ton methane engine for future heavy-lift launchers

    Jump

  • That's pretty cool!

  • NASA contract confirms selection of ULA’s Centaur 5 as new upper stage for the SLS rocket – Spaceflight Now

    Jump

  • As this has been widely speculated already, this is not a surprise. Super great to see this move forward at pace!

  • [Eric Berger] Ding-dong! The Exploration Upper Stage is dead

    Jump

  • "Sanity prevails" Thank goodness

  • [Eric Berger] NASA has shuffled its Artemis rockets. But what of the lunar landers?

    Jump

  • This was such a refreshing article to read. The NRHO requirement was so stupid. I'm so glad Jared is helping to move the program forward.

  • [Eric Berger] NASA shakes up its Artemis program to speed up lunar return

    Jump

  • Cancellation of the Exploration Upper Stage and Block IB upgrade for SLS rocket

    Artemis II and Artemis III missions will use the SLS rocket with existing upper stage

    Artemis IV, V (and any additional missions, should there be) will use a “standardized” upper stage

    Artemis III will no longer land on the Moon; rather Orion will launch on SLS and dock with Starship and/or Blue Moon landers in low-Earth orbit

    Artemis IV is now the first lunar landing mission

    NASA will seek to fly Artemis missions annually, starting with Artemis III in “mid” 2027, followed by at least one lunar landing in 2028

    NASA is working with SpaceX and Blue Origin to accelerate their development of commercial lunar landers for Artemis IV and beyond

  • [Eric Berger] NASA chief Jared Isaacman classifies Starliner flight as "Type A" mishap, says agency made mistakes

    Jump

  • The openness with which this was presented has been so refreshing.

  • [Jeff Foust] Isaacman planning to meet with head of Roscosmos

    Jump

  • I have a feeling this is more about the launch than the meeting, which is fine. Personally I think that having relations with the Russians is a waste of time.
