Space Exploration megathread
Since a number of cool things are happening in space exploration these days, we'll widen the scope of this thread a smidge. Conversation about all things space exploration are welcome, whether it be from NASA, SpaceX, ULA, Blue Origin, or anyone else. Chances are most of the discussion will still be about SpaceX since they love to make things public and fun, but nothing's off limits. I'll eventually get around to modifying the OP to include resources for other companies too, but in the meantime, feel free to post any cool stuff you run across.

Better than the first one, but still had two Raptors shut down before full duration:

So weird that they continue to lose engines. Hope that's a surmountable problem.

Seems like the only loose end now is FAA approval. Hopefully test flight go for launch next week. Perhaps a wet dress rehearsal Monday, and flight on Wednesday/Thursday.

Had a look at fully stacked Starship this morning.

Sounds like 2nd integrated test flight now a few weeks out.

FH launch scheduled for tomorrow but weather sounds iffy:

SpaceX and NASA are targeting Thursday, October 12 at 10:16 a.m. ET for Falcon Heavy’s launch of the Psyche mission to an interplanetary transfer orbit from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. If needed, a backup launch opportunity is available on Friday, October 13 at 10:19 a.m. ET.

The Psyche spacecraft will travel to a metal-rich asteroid of the same name orbiting the Sun between Jupiter and Mars in pursuit of studying the exposed nickel-iron core of an early planet, one of the building blocks of our solar system. The mission will also demonstrate NASA’s first deep space test of the Deep Space Optical Communications (DSOC) system – high-bandwidth optical communications through space and back to Earth – from distances far exceeding the Moon – using a near-infrared laser.

This will be the fourth launch for the side boosters, both of which previously supported USSF-44, USSF-67, and Hughes JUPTER 3. Following stage separation, Falcon Heavy’s two side boosters will land on SpaceX’s Landing Zones 1 and 2 (LZ-1 and LZ-2) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

A live webcast of this mission will begin on NASA TV about 45 minutes prior to liftoff.

SpaceX is only streaming on TwiX these days because Elon is a man child. I missed the launch, but glad to see it went well. Looks like we'll have pretty regular FH launches in the next couple of years, which is exciting as well!

I watched one of the other YouTube streams and was surprised when they cut to the watching area that it looked like there were maybe 5 people there. That area used to be packed for launches.

Could be...."soon"...



And a few weeks back, Cybertruck was around Starbase and the launchpad, hauling Raptor engines.



Here's a worthwhile watch from the International Astronautical Congress conference earlier this month, discussion with Elon Musk regarding Starship and Starbase development:
