#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 “longer-term” deals and block buys of launches to guarantee access to space 🌌 https://spacenews.com/spacex-launches-transporter-17-amid-concerns-about-rideshare-programs-future/

#SpaceX now has environmental approval to launch 🚀 up to 76 #Starship per year from #SLC37*. The demolition of the old SLC-37B is more or less completed. Currently, one tower and its chopstick arms are being built. On the site plans, there are two launch pads. Things will likely go faster ⏱️ than at Pad 2 at #Starbase https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2025/12/spacex-environmental-approval-starship-slc-37/

“We just passed 400 launches on #Falcon, and I would not be surprised if we fly 400 #Starship launches in the next four years.” #NASA is expecting at least bi-weekly launches to begin sometime in 📆 2025. “Now, we are not shutting down #Dragon, and we are not shutting down Falcon. We’ll be flying that for six to eight more years" https://spaceexplored.com/2024/11/27/starship-could-replace-falcon-and-dragon-in-less-than-a-decade

Today, drivers on the east coast of #Florida barely glance as #rockets 🚀 taking off from #CapeCanaveral soar overhead. “Nowadays I look at it like I look at a plane 🛫. It’s just normal.” 🥱 https://www.independent.co.uk/space/spacex-rocket-launch-falcon-9-space-b2288899.html
