Did you feel the ground shake around 2pm? Not your imagination, as a 6.4M earthquake happened NW of the western tip of Cuba today. According to the NWS, no tsunami threat at this time. Monitoring! Where did you feel it?

✈️ JUST IN: The X-59 has gone supersonic!

The X-59 achieved supersonic speeds for the first time ever today — a major milestone for NASA’s Quesst mission and an important step toward upcoming flights that will demonstrate its quiet supersonic technology ahead of future community overflights.

Fast now. Quiet soon. 🔊➡️🤫

As Atlantic hurricane season begins, we offer you a montage of major ones that made landfall in the United States over the past five years. This imagery—captured by @NOAA’s #GOESEast 🛰️—reminds us that our natural world offers as much danger as it does beauty. Stay safe and informed this hurricane season!

Blue Origin confirms anomaly after New Glenn rocket explodes during Cape Canaveral test https://t.co/a1KemVyebz

[Spaceflight Now @SpaceflightNow]

Here's our video of the explosion at Launch Complex 36. It happened about 9 pm ET (0100 UTC) as Blue Origin was beginning a static fire test of its New Glenn rocket.

[NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman @NASAAdmin]

NASA is aware of the anomaly that occurred tonight at Launch Complex 36 involving Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. 

Spaceflight is unforgiving, and developing new heavy-lift launch capability is extraordinarily difficult. We will work with our partners to support a thorough investigation of this anomaly, assess near-term mission impacts, and get back to launching rockets.

We will provide information on any impacts to the Artemis and Moon Base programs as it becomes available.

@ken_kremer @WFTV @ulalaunch @JeanWright0274 Sorry, this post was from 2023. Tonight, Blue Origin's New Glenn Rocket exploded on the pad tonight. Live on @WFTV right now.

We'll see how this 'hopefully' keeps our peak of hurricane season quieter, but may bring a very wet & stormy winter upcoming into 2027.

The notorious super El Niño of 1877-78 contributed to a global famine that wiped out 3 to 4 percent of the global population.

It was arguably the worst environmental disaster to ever befall humanity.

Are we better prepared now? The evidence says yes 🧵
