  1. Starlink satellite 34343 experienced an anomaly last Sunday, at 560 km altitude, and broke up into pieces.

    LeoLabs imaged the area around the satellite and detected 10's of fragments. They characterize this event as "likely caused by an internal energetic source rather than a collision with space debris or another object. Due to its low altitude, fragments will likely de-orbit within a few weeks."

    Now imagine such events with a million+ satellites in orbit.

    And we are live... launch team arriving on station for Artemis II #WDR2

    #nasa #artemis2 just say no to #rud 😅

  3. #KID separated from #PSLV ~18 minutes after takeoff, likely as a result of the flight anomaly
    • The demo craft was able to withstand peak forces around 28 Gs
    • KID’s thermal protection system was able to maintain a temperature of ~30 degrees Celsius, while external temperature readings showed ~85 degrees 🌡️ Celsius
    • The vehicle successfully transmitted data, while screaming through the atmosphere at a non-nominal trajectory

  4. During a routine ambient-pressure test, the Liquid Oxygen Tank ruptured. Based on photos of the damage, it appears that a COPV at the bottom of one of the larger chines might have exploded 💥 during the pressure test. Until we hear more directly from #SpaceX, it is only speculation at this point what caused the rupture nasaspaceflight.com/2025/11/bo

  6. The #FAA said debris hit one vehicle on the ground in South Caicos 🇹🇨 Island after the Jan. 16 breakup. The rocket breakups 💥 in January and earlier this month caused 414 departure delays for aircraft and 80 diversions or holds for planes ✈️ already aloft expressnews.com/business/artic

  7. This excellent youtube video by a critical cybertruck owner goes over every major body panel which is glued on.

    It's clearly possible to rip off some of these panels by hand.

    Kinda surprised they haven't started walking off the trucks given how easy some of them come off.

    Most panels appear to be easily pealed off part of the way.

  8. LMAO, Tesla owners have been saying all week that the reports of Cybertrucks rapidly disassembling themselves on the highway are fake news.

    Turns out Cybertrucks are infact falling apart because the GLUE that holds the stainless steel panels in place can't survive winter temps 🫠.

    Can't imagine any other car owners defending the car maker for their $100k+ ride falling the fuck apart every winter.

  10. #Starship #RUD 💥 : A preliminary analysis indicated a leak of oxygen and fuel and that the problem could be quickly fixed. “Nothing so far suggests pushing next launch past next month.”
    The rocket had been stretched several feet taller than earlier Starships — space for bigger tanks that hold 25 percent more propellant ⛽. nytimes.com/2025/01/16/science

  11. Widzialem, ze #Starship zrobil wczoraj efektowne BUM!
    To znaczy #RUD - Rapid Unplanned Disassembly ;)

    I tak, wiem, ze na tym etapie takie rzeczy nadal sa brane pod uwage - ale poheheszkowac mozna ;)
    Tylko szkoda, ze gdzies do Zatoki Meksykanskiej wpadlo sporo kosmicznego zlomu
