A new MSIB has been issued, covering next two weeks, citing testing over multiple days at Starbase. The first of these days is Tuesday!
This allows for the potential of explosive testing such as fuel load and static fire tests.

Friends, may be on the final stretch. It, , , and the rest of the deltayeet.net family may need to drop off Twitter as the API we use is being shut off soon and manual updates aren't feasible for much of what we do.

SpaceX launches Starlink 5-3!
Just another day (or night, or morning…?) here on the Space Coast. I got to meet a group comprised of folks who had seen many launches, and some who had never seen any. I love that!

Our rescue dog Becker that we adopted back in 2017 needs help finding a diagnosis so he can get treatment. His story is in the link below. He can no longer stand up to watch SpaceX Raptor test.

To Gus, Ed, and Roger. On this day in 1967, you climbed aboard Apollo 1, helping us dare mighty things and ultimately fulfill a centuries-long dream of stepping foot on another world. May we always remember...

"921 Rocket / Chang Zheng 5-DY / Chang Zheng 5-G" finally has its name. This time for real. 100%
Quote Tweet
Well then, the most reasonable name for this rocket has finally been taken.
I guess the overlapping with some pie-in-the-sky Chairman Mao era spaceflight plans really makes this official naming a bit longer to be official than usual.

Oh boy. So Chinese methalox rocket engine maker Jiuzhou Yunjian has tested its Longyun-70 engines with a stainless steel tank made by Space Epoch, a Chinese launch startup that wants to develop an initial mini version of SpaceX's Starship. mp.weixin.qq.com/s/gHYdJFECNSv2

Does Rocket Exhaust Melt Steel (and Concrete)?
Looks like SpaceX wants to find out... we spotted what seems to be an engine blast target out at McGregor, and made a video to talk about what it might mean. Also, Rapid Raptor Relights.

My HOT takes:
• We will find solid evidence of extent life elsewhere in the Solar System or beyond
• Falcon 9 nears Soyuz-U record for all-time launches (786)
• NSF streams live from the lunar surface

Can SpaceX really launch 100 times in 2023? Elon Musk suggested that that is the goal. Falcon 9 is the workhorse of the fleet, but can enough boosters be turned around to keep up? Is their supply chain in order?

Here we go. Europes path to a reusable launch vehicle appears once again.
Would wish for frequent updates on the timeline, but based on previous updates this indicates a one year delay so far in the Themis program.
Let’s see how it performs during the first demonstrations.
