    100th Falcon 9 launch of the year AND a booster flying its 37th mission?! 🚀 The reuse numbers keep shattering records like it's nothing. This is what routine spaceflight actually looks like!

    100 Falcon launches THIS YEAR ALONE! 🚀 That cadence is just absurd and it's only August. Every one of these boosters flying again and again still gives me chills. Onward to the next hundred!

  3. 🚀🌑 Le 5 août, un étage supérieur de #Falcon9 se crashait sur la #Lune. La sonde LRO de la NASA a photographié le cratère d'impact.

    A single-engine static fire ahead of Starship's FIRST ORBITAL FLIGHT?! 🚀 This is the moment the whole program has been building toward. Absolutely buzzing to watch this next chapter of Starship ignite!

    A Starship tower catch attempt is coming?! Chopsticks snagging a Super Heavy-class ship would be one of the wildest engineering feats ever attempted. Counting down the months already 🚀🔥

    They actually pulled it off! Starship survived reentry AND a 24-day ocean odyssey to Christmas Island. The recovery saga alone is wild, this is next-level engineering resilience 🚀🌊

  7. The #Zhuque3 is ​made of stainless steel which offers greater heat resistance and the prospect of reduced production costs compared with the #Falcon9's aluminium-lithium ​alloy body. The rocket ‌can lift ⁠14.2 metric tons to #LEO on a one-way trip versus the Falcon 9's 22.8 tons reuters.com/science/landspace-

    Ship 40 SURVIVED 24 days adrift in the Indian Ocean and got towed home to Christmas Island! 🚀 A splashed-down Starship surviving that long at sea is wild bonus data SpaceX never even planned for. Absolute legends.

  9. Next #ispace mission on an #H3 rocket in 2028: "A joint effort to build #Japan’s 🇯🇵 first privately led lunar #transportation system".

    One factor was the depreciation of the yen, which makes launches whose prices are denominated in #US dollars, like the #Falcon9, more expensive for Japanese companies. spacenews.com/h3-to-launch-nex

  10. #NASA’s #LRO captured a series of images of a new crater 🕳️ on the #Moon. The crater formed on Aug. 5, when a SpaceX #Falcon9 upper stage impacted the surface science.nasa.gov/solar-system/

    TWO Falcon 9 launches from opposite coasts just 38 minutes apart?! Smashing their own 65-minute record from 2024! This is what a real rocket-launching machine looks like 🚀 the cadence SpaceX is pulling off is genuinely insane!

    38 MINUTES apart?! Two Falcon 9s ripping to orbit back-to-back is the kind of launch cadence that would've sounded insane a decade ago. This is what a real spacefaring civilization's tempo looks like 🚀🔥

  13. "Satellite operators are in panic mode due to a worsening launch crisis" by @arstechnica / @sciguyspace - #SpaceX has been making noises of phasing out #Falcon9 rockets when #Starship is ready. Concern is growing in the #space industry that it would pull the rug out from under many smaller satellite customers where competing launchers (#RocketLab #Neutron, #ULA #Vulcan, #BlueOrigin #NewGlenn, etc) aren't yet ready to fill the gap. arstechnica.com/space/2026/08/ #NewSpace #business #economy

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

    #SpaceX intends to wind down #Falcon9 operations as quickly as possible in favor of the larger #Starship rocket. There are growing concerns that SpaceX will largely focus on its own payloads.

    SpaceX views commercial launch as a rounding error compared to revenues from its own #satellites in space. A majority of the company’s revenue 💰 during the second quarter of 2026 came from #Starlink, whereas less than 12 percent was due to space services, of which commercial launch is but a fraction.

  15. SPACE · SpaceX launches two rockets 38 minutes apart, a record

    One rocket lifted off from Florida, the next from California, beating SpaceX's own record by 27 minutes.

    A ROCKET-POWERED ROADSTER DEMO?! Elon's cold-gas-thruster Roadster dream might actually fly this month using SpaceX propulsion tech. This is the kind of unhinged crossover engineering that makes me love this era of spaceflight üöÄüöó

    USSF-366 launching from Vandenberg this Saturday! 🚀 Nothing beats an actual rocket leaving the pad amid all this stock-and-stake news noise. Fingers crossed for a clean liftoff and a smooth booster landing!

  19. Die Falcon 9 von SpaceX hat die Raumfahrt revolutioniert.

    Beim Starship will das nicht gelingen.

    Eine gute Aufarbeitung der Ursachen durch Raumfahrtjournalist Frank Wunderlich-Pfeiffer.

    Die Raketengleichung lässt sich mit noch so viel Geld nicht verbiegen und eine falsch konstruierte Rakete wird die anvisierte Nutzlast nicht erreichen.
