NASA’s SpaceX Crew-1 astronauts aboard the International Space Station will mark another first for commercial spaceflight Monday, April 5, when the four astronauts will relocate the Crew Dragon spacecraft to prepare for the arrival of new crew members in late April and the upcoming delivery of new solar arrays this summer.Live coverage will begin at [...]
Starship SN11, equipped with three sea-level Raptor engines will attempt a high-altitude hop at SpaceX's development and launch site in Boca Chica, Texas. For this test, the vehicle will ascend to an altitude of approximately 10km, before moving from a vertical orientation (as on ascent), to horizontal orientation, in which the broadside (+ z) of [...]
On Wednesday, March 3, SpaceX's Starship serial number (SN10) successfully completed the third high-altitude flight test of a Starship prototype from the SpaceX site in Cameron County, Texas.Similar to the high-altitude flight tests of Starship SN8 and SN9, SN10 was powered through ascent by three Raptor engines, each shutting down in sequence prior to the [...]
Starship SN10, equipped with three sea-level Raptor engines will attempt a high-altitude hop at SpaceX's development and launch site in Boca Chica, Texas. For this test, the vehicle will ascend to an altitude of approximately 10km (confirmed), before moving from a vertical orientation (as on ascent), to horizontal orientation, in which the broadside (+ z) [...]
The 17th operational batch of Starlink satellites (18th overall) will lift off from LC-39A at the Kennedy Space Center, on a Falcon 9 rocket. In the weeks following deployment the Starlink satellites will use onboard ion thrusters to reach their operational altitude of 550 km. Falcon 9's first stage will attempt to land on a [...]
Starship SN9, equipped with three sea-level Raptor engines will attempt a high-altitude hop at SpaceX's development and launch site in Boca Chica, Texas. For this test, the vehicle will ascend to an altitude of approximately 10km (confirmed), before moving from a vertical orientation (as on ascent), to horizontal orientation, in which the broadside (+ z) [...]
There has been a lot of confusion about the upcoming #SpaceX #Starship SN9 launch so I thought we should spend a few minutes going over what it means to obtain FAA Approval, what the criteria is, why the FAA is involved along with a number of other questions surrounding the FAA Approval process for all [...]
On Thursday, January 28, 2021, SpaceX scrubbed their launch attempt in Boca Chica, TX for their Starship prototype named SN9, because the FAA reported refused to grant them approval to fly due to "outstanding safety issues". They are expected to attempt their test flight now on Friday, January 29th and hope to fly to an [...]
This is a launch to sun-synchronous polar orbit from Florida as part of SpaceX's Rideshare program dedicated to smallsat customers. The mission again makes use of the Eastern Range's recently reopened polar corridor launching southward with a dogleg maneuver. The mission will also include 10 Starlink satellites, the first to go to a polar orbit. [...]
