omg if this isn't an amazing picture idk what is

Amazing work BE-7 team!

[Dave Limp @davill]

I've come to appreciate boring hotfires. Our BE-7 team recently completed a 2,500 second hotfire test at 10klbf on a development engine, setting the record for the longest-duration turbo pump-fed liquid rocket engine hotfire. This built on some of the most rigorous testing in the history of propulsion, with the previous record set by the RS-25 engine that powered the Space Shuttle. They recorded two 2,017 second tests in 1988. It's not lost on us that we're following a path those engineers blazed, and we're grateful for it. Grab the popcorn and enjoy watching 41 minutes of hotfire goodness.

The convo has shifted from whether we can return to the Moon to how we stay there. New approaches. New tech. Same American boldness. 🇺🇸

[Firefly Aerospace @FireflySpace]

We're excited to announce Nathan O'Konek as Firefly's General Counsel. Nathan brings more than 20 years of legal and strategic leadership experience in the global aerospace and defense sectors, specializing in high-growth space companies, public markets, and international capital markets. Most recently, he served as COO at Star Catcher Industries. Congratulations, Nathan, and welcome to the team!

Multiple generations of space pioneers were gathered last night to celebrate the @NatlAero Collier trophy award to the @FireflySpace Blue Ghost Mission 1 team. Thank you to NAA, @NASA, @NASAAdmin, @SolarGirl2018, and all of the sponsors that made this night memorable.

Can’t say there was a dry eye in the room after reflecting how much hard work, ingenuity, and sacrifice was put in by the entire Team to make this mission a 100% success. Congrats Firefly Blue Ghost Mission 1 Team!

[K. Price @KPSpace]

The excellence of NASA's astronauts isn't in question, but visibility matters immensely—especially for historic missions. It's disheartening to see the selection for Artemis III fall short of representing the diverse future of space exploration we've been promised. We can celebrate the crew's expertise while still being disappointed by the broader message this sends. #ArtemisIII #NASA #RepresentationMatters #WomenInSTEM

[NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman @NASAAdmin]

We are sending the best NASA astronauts based on crew rotation, background, and expertise on Artemis III. The same way we sent our best on Artemis II. The same way we send our best astronauts to the International Space Station, where the recent Crew-10 through Crew-13 assignments ALL include female commanders and crews that are no less than 50% female. Not because it was a requirement, but because they are the best astronauts for the job.

Celebrate the Artemis III crew the same way we will celebrate all crews who follow that will walk again on the Moon.

Wanted this to make it here. Appreciate the dialogue @TheSpaceGal and @rookisaacman

[K. Price @KPSpace]

The absolute best person for the job! Massive congratulations to @Astro_Jenni on becoming the lead Capcom for Artemis III. The crew is in the absolute best hands with her guiding the way from Earth. Keep shining bright, Jenni!

[Dr. Jenni Gibbons @Astro_Jenni]

We have a crew! Congrats to these four: our new Artemis III crew! I can’t wait to work with them.

For Artemis III, I will be filling the role as lead Capcom.

Congrats to the crew! Incredible to see the progress. As @BlueOrigin returns humans to the Moon, we hope @davill @JeffBezos and @LaurenSanchez continue their powerful advocacy for women in space, carrying forward the brilliant inspiration of the all-female flight crew. More representation makes the future brighter for everyone!

[Dave Limp @davill]

Congrats to the @NASAArtemis III crew! Blue Origin is excited to be part of the journey of returning humans to the Moon. Next stop: LEO!

[K. Price @KPSpace]

Embarrassed to share this with my kids.😔

A lot of people are reacting to @NASA's latest Artemis III announcement (as seen in image.png) pointing out the lack of women in the crew. When we go back to the Moon, shouldn't the crew reflect more than a single gender?

Do better humanity.

Progress continues at LC-36. Starting to move GS2s from the Integration Facility to Rocket Park as we clean up and rebuild the pad. A couple more GS2s and Never Tell Me The Odds to follow. Great work, Team Blue.

Great news - Godspeed Team @blueorigin!

[Dave Limp @davill]

Some LC-36 updates. Now that we’ve had access to the pad and integration facility we can share a bit of good news. The propellant farm, oxygen, liquid hydrogen and LNG tanks are all in good shape. This is good luck because these are very long lead items. The water tower is also good. The big support tower is damaged, but it can be repaired in place rather than torn down and replaced. The booster “Never Tell Me The Odds” and the three GS-2s that were onsite in the integration facility also look good.

I’ve seen some speculation that we might move directly to the 9x4 configuration, but we won’t do that. Rate manufacturing of 7x2 is going well, and we’re going to continue that at pace as planned and store the stages for use. In addition, we had already been working for some time on eliminating our transporter-erector in favor of an alternative vertical conop, and we’ll now go directly to that; so we don’t need a new transporter-erector.

We will fly again before the end of this year. Gradatim Ferociter.

[K. Price @KPSpace]

Never Tell Me the Odds ❤️

[Dave Limp @davill]

Inspiring. Thanks for all your support. We will return to flight as soon as possible!

[Jeff Bezos @JeffBezos]

Thank you for being here today. Your support means a lot to the whole team. We will get back to flight, and we will get to the Moon. Gradatim Ferociter.

[Jeff Bezos @JeffBezos]

All personnel are accounted for and safe. It’s too early to know the root cause but we’re already working to find it. Very rough day, but we’ll rebuild whatever needs rebuilding and get back to flying. It’s worth it.
