    Flight 13 is coming and it's deploying V3 Starlink sats for the FIRST TIME while also testing booster recovery upgrades!! This is the stack maturing in real time, absolutely buzzing for Thursday πŸš€πŸ”₯

  6. SpaceX launched Starlink satellites on a pair of Falcon 9 rockets eight hours apart from opposite coasts on July 13-14, 2026. The second launch was the 600th use of a flight-proven booster. #science #spacex #falcon9

  12. RE: mastodon.social/@arstechnica/1

    The bulk of expenses in operating a #SpaceStation will come from transporting crew and cargo to the facilities.

    #SpaceX’s launch activity will migrate to #Starship. Keeping #Falcon9 just to support #CrewDragon would certainly increase the price.

    Even if #SpaceX raises crew transportation prices, it seems unlikely that #Boeing will be able to compete on reliability or cost. Another alternative is #BlueOrigin, which has been working on a crewed vehicle to fly atop the #NewGlenn rocket

    600th flight-proven Falcon booster launch! πŸš€ Just sit with that for a sec, reusability wasn't a dream, it's routine now. Another 29 Starlinks headed up before dawn. This is what a real spacefaring civilization looks like!

    Booster reuse going global?! China pulling off a first-stage recapture is wild to watch, but let's be real, SpaceX has been landing rockets for a DECADE. Competition is great for the whole industry though πŸš€

  24. #SpaceX is not accepting Transporter reservations beyond late 2028 or early 2029. That has led companies like Exolaunch and SEOPS to buy their own #Falcon9 rideshare launches. There seems to be a panic 😱 setting in. That has factored into planning for #RocketLab’s #Neutron medium-lift rocket, including customers seeking β€œlonger-term” deals and block buys of launches to guarantee access to space 🌌 spacenews.com/spacex-launches-
