Three years since the first flight of Starship, the next generation is here. New ship. New booster. New engines. New pad and new test site. SpaceX engineers are working to solve one of the most difficult engineering challenges in history: developing a fully, rapidly reusable rocket
Grateful for a community that shows up.
This weekend, 585 volunteers covered all 6.5 miles of Boca Chica Beach and removed 5,740 lbs of debris.
Thank you to our partners at Cameron County, @SpaceX, @TXAdoptABeach, and @TXGLO
Earthset.
The Artemis II crew captured this view of an Earthset on April 6, 2026, as they flew around the Moon. The image is reminiscent of the iconic Earthrise image taken by astronaut Bill Anders 58 years earlier as the Apollo 8 crew flew around the Moon.
That's us! π
The Artemis II crew captured beautiful, high-resolution images of our home planet during their journey to the Moon. As @Astro_Christina put it: "You guys look great."
I hosted my first public outreach event about SLS and Orion in 2016. 10 ENTIRE YEARS AGO. I've been trying to get people excited for this week... FOR A DECADE.
Action. Wonder. Adventure. Artemis II has got it all. Don't miss the moment. Our crewed Moon mission will launch as early as April 1.

It's extremely exciting that we should see humans fly past the moon and further from Earth than ever before in (potentially) a matter of weeks. These are the days I've been looking forward to for over a decade, and now we're here.
Having a moment to take a step back and look at what I did with Rocket Future and the opportunities it opened for me...
I'm really proud of what I built and the quality of what I was able to deliver, especially as a one man show. I am stoked that it was such a significant stepping stone on the way to where I am today.
I still hope to make some videos some day (eclipse 2026?), but for now.. I'm very happy to be with SpaceX.
Thanks to everyone who's been a part of the journey so far.
