Midland Int'l Airport #KMAF (between Midland and Odessa in Texas) was the first airline-served airport to apply for an FAA spaceport license. The industry watched closely, anticipating difficulties with proximity of airline & spaceflight operations. Interestingly, it was not more difficult. Actually, for FAA requirements on fire departments at spaceport facilities, MAF mostly already complied due to their airline emergency response capability. #aviation #avgeek #travel #spacegeek #NewSpace

XCOR deleted their YouTube videos upon going out of business. I think mgmt was shortsighted, and should have preserved their history. A few copies remain via a tourism company who worked with them. Mike Massee updated XCOR's animation of what a suborbital space flight on Lynx could have been like, previously with Mojave CA scenery, updated for Midland TX with airliners at #KMAF. (disclosure: I worked at XCOR on Lynx flight hardware.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4S51_Q_rfU #aviation #avgeek #spacegeek #NewSpace

"Blue Origin hires United Launch Alliance CEO Tory Bruno to head its national security group" by GeekWire (Seattle tech news) / @alanboyle - Matter-of-fact reporting on Bruno's departure doesn't yet explain what this means for #ULA.

But BO poaching ULA's CEO casts doubt on BO's bid to acquire ULA. https://www.geekwire.com/2025/blue-origin-hires-united-launch-alliance-ceo-tory-bruno-national-security-group/ #NewSpace #space #business

"Space Force Weighs Range Upgrades to Support Reusable Rockets" by Air & Space Forces Magazine - Cape Canaveral and Vandenberg launch ranges are seeing many times more rocket launches than they did 10 years ago, and traffic challenges as roads are frequently closed to tow recovered boosters from wharves to refurbishment facilities. It's the problem all the site users wanted to have. Now USSF has to expand facilities to keep things moving. https://www.airandspaceforces.com/space-force-range-upgrades-rocket-reuse/ #USSF #NewSpace #rocketry #space
