Stunning first-sat views from @Starlink launch G10-38 on May 1, deployed from @SpaceX's Falcon rocket. Watch as the Starlink sats cruise over an entire orbit, through sunrise and sunset, and slowly separate from each as they complete their post-launch deployment sequence before beginning orbit raise. The satellites are stacked like a deck of cards in the rocket, which slowly spins when dispensing to impart a small velocity difference, ensuring deconfliction. May the @Starlink be with you.
SpaceXAI will provide @AnthropicAI with access to Colossus 1, one of the world’s largest and fastest-deployed AI supercomputers, to provide additional capacity for Claude → https://t.co/nfDR9S822L
Launch rehearsal complete. During a flight-like countdown, more than 5,000 metric tonnes (11+ million pounds) of propellant were loaded on the fully stacked Starship and Super Heavy V3 vehicles for the first time
All systems are looking good and weather is favorable for liftoff. Propellant load is about to begin for tonight’s launch of NROL-172 from California → https://t.co/wofdAEgq6e
It’s no secret that we intend to launch Starship a lot, targeting thousands of flights per year. That cadence will require the ability to launch from many different locations, so we are constantly exploring to find viable sites to expand Starship operations in the future, both domestically and internationally
@Space_Station Due to unfavorable weather, now targeting tomorrow, May 13, for Falcon 9’s launch of the CRS-34 mission to the @Space_Station → https://t.co/c8cVFXwJY0
