Next launch? Oh snap, they have more F9’s contracted? Looks like $ASTS had some launches booked after all. 🤷🏻
“This first stacked launch is just the beginning,” Avellan added. “BlueBirds 11, 12, and 13 will ship shortly for our next launch, while next-generation BlueBird satellites through BlueBird 37 are already in active production and assembly Our focus is firmly on execution: scaling launch cadence, manufacturing, and preparing for commercial service.”
What did we learn tonight?
- Successful integration of nearly 12 tons of satellites on an F9
- Survival of the satellites in a 3-bird stacked configuration
- Successful mission planning
Each step, $ASTS learns and de-risks. Tonight was a big deal.
We showed our composite satellites could withstand truly unreal loads. One more bear case with nails in the coffin.
$ASTS: This is why the composite casings took so long to finalize. It's hard fucking work. 👇
"During launch, the BlueBirds must withstand extraordinary forces up to 6 times Earth's gravity. This creates a MASSIVE ENGINEERING CHALLENGE as with the stacked design, the bottom satellite must now support its own weight plus the ones above it, multiplied by 6Gs. To address this, our teams have developed incredibly strong carbon fiber structures that enable us to stack up to 8 satellites at once. That means each satellite can support about the weight of a fully loaded Boeing 777 at takeoff, or nearly the weight of the Statue of Liberty minus its pedestal. That's a strong satellite."

Successful launch!🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
All satellites were captured within minutes and already orbiting Earth with all systems nominal.
Congratulations to the incredible AST SpaceMobile team! 250Y U.S.A. 🌎📶 🤠

The number of ETFs that held SpaceX went from 4 to 40 to now 120 in a couple days (few billion total). These are all active ETFs choosing to buy, not indexes (they coming later). Here's a look at the list sorted by new buy, $JEPQ (the 2nd largest active ETF in world) at the top. Looks like a lot of JPM funds bought.

Just heard of a municipality recycling program stating that they will now collect polypropylene (#5 plastic). Conincidence? Or is there now demand...

Encapsulation complete.
BlueBirds 8, 9, and 10 are now secured inside Falcon 9's fairing ahead of launch.
A stacked configuration powered by advanced carbon fiber structures, engineered to withstand ascent forces comparable to carrying a fully loaded space shuttle orbiter during launch. 💪
Next stop: launch. 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀
