Russian companies have claimed to be operating radar-imaging satellites to fill gaps in limited Russian government systems. An examination of the links between these companies and China’s commercial space industry. https://t.co/5GbzFFvJ6J

It's been several months, but Galactic Energy's Ceres-1 is back with a sea launch near Rizhao earlier today, carrying a single remote sensing satellite to image Guangzhou and surrounding regions

THIS WILL BE INCREDIBLE TO SEE!!! Flight 15 could feature the first DOUBLE CATCH! That's right! Both ship and booster could be caught. This obviously means it'd be an orbital mission again too, so this will easily be the most exciting mission to date! I can't wait!!!

[Eric Berger @SciGuySpace]

Gwynne Shotwell said the company is in advanced discussions with the FAA to get approval for catching both ship and booster at Starbase.

@RocketLab @NASA @ucbssl Still targeting Nov. 7 and 9 for flyby of Gold & Blue?

[Mario Billiani 🚀 @_starbase_]

@TheVexDex @AviationWeek I suspect nitrogen, the same as the cold gas thrusters SpaceX uses on the Falcon 9.

[Mario Billiani 🚀 @_starbase_]

@mterachan Great tracking! 👏

[Mario Billiani 🚀 @_starbase_]

@VardaSpace Hope to get a reentry video of the current flights. Happy landings!

[NOAA Satellites @NOAASatellites]

After more than 15 years in orbit, @NOAA will be deorbiting the Suomi NPP satellite starting on Dec. 1, 2026. This will be done by gradually lowering its orbit before it reenters Earth’s atmosphere over the South Pacific Ocean.

Suomi NPP was a pathfinding mission to demonstrate the capabilities of NOAA's JPSS constellation. The data provided by Suomi NPP are now operationally delivered by NOAA-20 and NOAA-21.

China's Zhuque-2E rocket broke apart in orbit after a June launch. The following mission in September inexplicably deorbited over the American Midwest.

According to current orbital elements, the Russian #KOSMOS 2612 satellite is now within 1-2 km of #ICEYE-X36. Based on current elements, it might come within meters of the latter within a few hours from now. This is an #RPO without consent.
