#Nerd aerospacial, And obsessed with everything related to rockets

Who can't think of more than just rockets.

I don't know what else to write lol

[TheSpaceEngineer @mcrs987]

Attempt at capture of Starship is ongoing at the current time , 173 hours since touchdown.

[TheSpaceEngineer @mcrs987]

Now in position and stationkeeping slightly ahead of where the ship will drift to. Looks like they're going to somewhat mirror the staging run from a few hrs ago.

Next post will be upon intercept itself/after it is obvious a capture was attempted

[TheSpaceEngineer @mcrs987]

Ranger pushing backwards from the southeast and Australis pushing forwards from the northwest. The two vessels are within only a several meters of eachother now, seemingly sandwiching the ship between themselves. 168 hours since touchdown and counting

It’s unreal to see this..., I can’t wait to see these views again but with sunlight 🥺

View of Starship in space from a Starlink V3 satellite on Flight 13.

This composite is made of imagery from four separate cameras on a single satellite. Six of the satellites were equipped with cameras to scan Starship’s heat shield and transmit imagery down to operators to continue testing methods of analyzing Starship’s heat shield readiness for return to launch site on future missions

Another beautiful view of the Gygabay in Florida😌

@jrxcket The outside is almost... Finished, it remains to put the glass panels, bone the windows, and inside the workstations and cranes

[StarkSpace2026🇲🇽 @StarkSpace25]

@Spaceiscool42 @mcrs987 I guess from the same capture points lol

[TheSpaceEngineer @mcrs987]

1st deliberate heading change by Australis since they started trailing the floating Starship days and days ago. This puts them with the aft end of the vessel roughly in line with the nose of the ship (as it has been floating with a pretty consistent ~40 degree heading)

[StarkSpace2026🇲🇽 @StarkSpace25]

@ARealRocketMan La Starship del vuelo 7 no logró aterrizar, falló y explotó en el espacio antes de llegar a MECO por un fallo en las vibraciones armónicas internas del vehículo.

We have views from the space of the Starlink V3 and the same complete starship. View from space✌️😭

[Starlink @Starlink]

The first Starlink V3 satellites in space successfully deployed their solar arrays, fired their thrusters, established connections with the Starlink constellation using radio frequencies and laser links, and captured imagery of Starship

[TheSpaceEngineer @mcrs987]

Okay so, bit of confusion over what's happening yesterday so here's where we're at:

Two vessels are outbound to S40 to assist in recovery operations. NORMAND RANGER and SKIMMER TIDE. Both are similar in size to Australis and Ranger especially seems fit for towing. Ranger will arrive at the site in the next day and a half while Skimmer will arrive in two. GO Australis is still closely following the drifting Starship, 134 hours and counting since landing.

[IGW @interstellargw]

Recovery Operations: Possible 2 Vessels located.

SKIMMER TIDE and NORMAND RANGER are both cruising up to 15knots toward GO AUSTRALIS location.

Vessel Spotters: @mcrs987 @joeyigw

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

The ship landing was precise, meaning that it would have been caught by the tower arms

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Starship still floating in the ocean
