The ground stop affecting Southwest flights has been canceled, but effects will be felt through much of the rest of the day. With ~150 flights in the air right now, there are about 60% fewer Southwest flights than last Tuesday at the same time.

Very excited for the @SpaceX launch this morning. But launches have an impact on aviation as a whole. Today the Gulf of Mexico is basically a no fly zone. This adds considerable amount of fuel and time to flights. Here are todays restrictions for the #StarshipLaunch #Thread

Kenyan authorities attributed the abort to a “technical problem.” During a high speed abort, the brakes of the aircraft can reach more than 1000℃. To prevent explosions, tires are equipped with fuse plugs that deflate the tires when extreme temperatures are reached.
