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
The @SpaceX recovery team is 1/1. While the mariners and engineers offshore literally ride the wave, a hard charging group of leaders, operators, meteorologists, engineers and supply chain work 24/7 to feed them the data and support they need to continue the mission. Deadliest catch meets Apollo 13 content coming soon 🚀 🎣
The team, the team, the team!!!!
🫡 to Booster 1069
We refer to 1069 as the OG tippy rocket. It lived a long and fruitful life after it came about as close as you can get to being lost on its first mission. On that mission, CRS-24, it landed in rough seas and immediately had severe uneven leg loads, causing it to “tip.” We spent the next two hours watching the rocket on camera literally dance from side to side on the droneship. Through the incredible skill of our @SpaceX recovery team and a decent amount of luck, we were able to pin the rocket against the droneship tow board and blast wall with the octagrabber jammed under the engines. Somehow, against all odds, the team got 1069 home. We replaced all nine engines that were damaged in the process… and then it flew another 31 successful missions!!! 🚀
Never. Give. Up.
Erling Haaland paid $134,000 for a 430-year-old Viking kings manuscript, then gifted it to his hometown. He said: “I’ve never been a big reader, but I want people to read about those who came from my area.”
Erling Haaland and his father, Alf-Inge Haaland, quietly acquired one of Norway’s greatest literary treasures at auction: a 1594 edition of Snorri Sturluson’s Kongesagaer. Translated by Mattis Størssøn from Old Norse into Danish, it was the first printed history of Norway and helped preserve the stories of the nation’s medieval kings for generations.
Widely regarded as one of the most significant works in Norwegian literary history, the copy purchased by the Haalands was the only complete edition still in private ownership. It sold for 1.3 million Norwegian kroner (about $134,000), setting the record as the most expensive Norwegian book ever sold at auction.
Instead of keeping the rare volume in a private collection, the Haalands donated it to the library in Time Municipality, where Erling grew up. The book is now on public display, and the donation also funded a reading competition to inspire local children and young people to discover Norway’s history and literary heritage.
SpaceX just launched two Falcon 9 rockets carrying 56 Starlink satellites in less than eight hours
SpaceX is moving at light speed right now
First:
• 27 Starlink satellites from Vandenberg
Then, just 7 hours and 42 minutes later:
• 29 more Starlink satellites from Florida
Two coasts, two rockets, 56 satellites, less than eight hours
For most space programs, one launch is a major national achievement
SpaceX launched twice in one day and was already preparing for the next mission
SpaceX is basically running an orbital assembly line
BREAKING: SpaceX breaks its own Falcon 9 reuse record with 36th Booster Flight.
• Falcon 9 booster completed its record-breaking 36th launch and landing
• This is the most flights ever by a single SpaceX orbital booster.
• Mission deployed 29 Starlink satellites into orbit.
