I've been thinking about... Mars... would I really go if the seat was offered? It seems like it would be a great adventure, yet it's going to be really hard to start with. Even with Optimus androids doing

What a contrast. For the Artemis moon landing, two astronauts will go to the surface in Starship, while two remain in the Orion capsule in LL0 during the mission. Two land and live in total luxury in the

So the question of the day is: On Artemis IV, what happens to the Starship HLS once the crew transfers back to Orion at step 15? NASA's chart stops tracking it after Orion undocks, and with no heat shield

One Time for Every World - How I keep time across Earth and Mars, and the date I'm counting down to If you've seen "Today is CSD ..." at the top of my posts and wondered what the number means,

Do I see 6, 7 or 8 new Starship nose cones being built at the same time? This image from today's NASA update.

Die neue Tesla Roadster Demo war ein Schock-Moment für die deutsche Autoindustrie. Während Europa es lange Zeit nicht einmal geschafft hat, ein sexy aussehendes Elektroauto zu fertigen, arbeitet Tesla

Could Crew Dragon outlive Falcon 9? Yes... Here's how: Launched inside Starship. Deployed to complete mission then returns as normal. The logic is plain. Getting Starship certified to launch people is

KiwiThinker Flashback Today is CSD 3445.8421, Oct 18 2026 Two years ago I said Starship could start putting Starlinks up before SpaceX recovered a single ship. Flight 14 last month did just that: first

So the question of the day is: would any country let the fully kitted Roadster near a public road? Thrusters and all. Not for a stunt, just for the moment something's in the way and you need to hop clear.

Get the noun right Let's get the descriptions right. Starship mission profile flights versus space infrastructure ones. Let's talk about old think vs new reality. Starship tankers are not part of the mission

So the question of the day is: who gives way, the rockets or the planes? SpaceX is asking for up to 456 Starship launches a year from Starbase. At that pace a closure stops being a one-off and starts looking

13,000 Starlink satellites launched. That number still takes a moment to sink in. The milestone came with Group 15-25, 27 V2 Mini satellites off Vandenberg at 1:28pm NZDT on Tue 13 Oct, on B1088's 20th

Could Ship 40 be reused? Yes in theory. It survived the full flight profile, a soft splashdown, weeks floating in the Indian Ocean, and the long trip home on Forte. The stainless steel held together and

So the question of the day is: Will Ship 40 ever fly again? First Ship to come home intact. 75 days at sea. Now it is back at Starbase. Re-fly it. Cut it open. Put it on a stand. Or something else?

SpaceX's stock jumped more than 7% on October 3, 2026, closing at $158.96. It would be easy to credit another engineering win, but investors seem to be reacting to something bigger. The company is no longer

So the question of the day is: Does 21 November 2033 still hit the mark for the first human landing on Mars? Arcadia Planitia. CSD 3819.0300. 15 December 2031, CSD 3717.2265, is the early what-if, not

The Isaacman Effect - Week 38 Crew-13 momentum builds as Isaacman hits the road in Alaska, inspiring students and researchers. Crew-13 and Artemis confidence Crew-13 launched October 1 aboard SpaceX Falcon

So the question of the day is: Starlink is planning an interplanetary mesh. Moon constellation, then Mars, and maybe more. What do the other comms firms and NASA do now? Build their own link. Ride the

The bets have been placed and the goal is clear: it's off to space with the new data centers. 40 billion dollars have already been ordered from Nvidia to make this bet in space a reality. In general, there

Where is Starship 40 today 5 Oct 2026? Ship 40 remains aboard the Boskalis Forte. She's left the South Atlantic behind. Latest AIS puts her in the Caribbean Sea, roughly 20°N 83°W, still pushing toward
