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.

Do we know if they were testing anything specific with this launch? I like Blue Origin, but it just seems like they're still doing basically the same tests they were doing 5 years ago.

Just more "experiments" from what I've read. Which is a bit odd anyway, since this was another suborbital flight.

One of these days I'll have to look up what kind of experiments they're flying. It's hard to picture what you could gather from 30 seconds (or whatever) of microgravity.

I'm a little surprised they didn't have any footage from cameras mounted on the booster or capsule.

That's about it though. The rest of the coverage was far below the quality we see for a SpaceX launch.

Agreed. Fairing separation and satellite deployment beat drone footage of a suborbital rocket every time.

This.


Let me know when BO launches an orbital rocker. :/


I expect Starship to reach orbit before New Glenn.

Something just seems sketchy about Blue Horizon's. I suspect it's solely for Bezos.

Probably years away from this being a thing, but cool that NASA sees the promise in the concept.

I would guess it is one of the first orbital Starship missions launched. Starship doesn't go to the Moon or Mars without this tech.
