Congratulations and a huge thank you to our extraordinary SpaceX team! Successful Super Heavy launch and landing, “orbital” ship (that’s one tough cookie!) entry, engine relight and splashdown. I hope you enjoyed the views, the music and see you back soon for our next flight!

This stunning video of the SpaceX Inspiration4 mission launch was made of multiple telescope tracking shots and composed in a neverending loop. [🎞️ MarsScientific]

Starship Flight 5 stacking time-lapse. T-minus 37 hrs and counting! 10/11/24

"Good, our first catch of the day!" OMG!

STARSHIP TAKES FLIGHT AND SUPER HEAVY IS CAUGHT — SpaceX successfully launched Starship for its fifth flight this morning, completing a remarkable feat in spaceflight history as the rocket’s Super Heavy booster returned to Starbase for the first-ever tower catch and landing!

They brought her home. Booster 12 becomes the first Super Heavy booster to be recovered in the Starship program. 📸 - NSF - NASASpaceflight.com 📺 - youtube.com/live/YC87WmFN_…

Hopper is very proud.

I must admit I did not expect Michael Bloomberg to have his finger this near the pulse of spaceflight / NASA. Here's a thread of my thought on his Artemis Article: bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

“One small catch for humanity” Here’s my composite image from IFT5, the moment rapidly reusable rocket booster technology was successfully tested for the first time. In future classrooms on Mars, this will be in their history books. Available in print for a short time.

THERE AND BACK — Starship launches for Flight 7 and Super Heavy returns for the second-ever catch and landing at Starbase!

We have confirmation #BlueGhost stuck the landing! Firefly just became the first commercial company in history to achieve a fully successful Moon landing. This small step on the Moon represents a giant leap in commercial exploration. Congratulations to the entire Firefly team,

Just in, our #GhostRiders downlinked another incredible Moon shot following a successful touchdown! Image shows the Moon's surface and Earth on the horizon. Blue Ghost's solar panel, X-band antenna (left), and LEXI payload (right) are also in view. #BGM1

NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter captured this image of Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost Mission 1 lander on the Moon. The lander touched down on March 2 near a volcanic feature within Mare Crisium, with 10 NASA science and technology instruments onboard. lroc.asu.edu/images/1406
