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.

That was odd... And a lingering fire to boot. LOL

Launch attempt today at 6:53pm EST. (I say attempt because weather is pretty iffy.)



No landing on this one. Poor little booster has flown twice before, but now it's time to burn up.

SpaceX is still on for tonight at the moment, though they're delaying 30 minutes for rain. In other news, Rocketlab is going to try and reuse their first stage, so that's cool! Much smaller rocket, but still.

Mission success, and they caught a fairing half again! Wonder if that means they're starting to get the hang of it.

I still had a way, not that I ever had to use it, to load our sub's fire control computer via paper-tape... Granted, we didn't have 642s, but we sure had them in our schools. The skimmers suffered them into the 90s.

LOL, they had sticks that they would use to press down and wiggle all the cards, in all the trays, before they booted it.

The crazy thing is that the fairing half they caught is probably worth more than the boat.
