Bored New Space

Ideas and thoughts on the glory of new space companies. But mostly the incarnation of NewSpace saltyness. (they/them)

Surprising place to find an on-point SpaceX burn. Watch from 4:45 to 5:15 - https://t.co/25dkxWAU7e

Latest "SpaceX doesn't exist" line from Blue:

"We are building a rocket (New Glenn) and a launch site that can put more payload into space than anybody else".

Great to be proud of that, but the "power slide launch" issue was a moment that showed what rockstars Astra's GNC team is. An unfortunate event for Astra, but what an amazing resume add for all of those GNC engineers.

[Chris Kemp @Kemp]

Proud of our team for identifying cause of “power slide launch” issue, implementing & testing design changes, & shipping new rocket in less than six weeks. We may still have more to learn, but iterating this fast should result in Astra reaching orbit faster than anyone before us

Back by apparently popular demand... stay tuned

This is how I, a 45-year-old white woman and mother of 6, currently at her peak Karen power, went from assuming police work was a necessary part of functional communities, to becoming a passionate advocate for #abolishthepolice #defundthepolice, over the course of one week.

I am a BLACK WOMAN. I don’t matter because I build. I don’t matter because I’m strong. I don’t matter because I have a degree. I don’t subscribe to the notion that I matter because of what I can offer. I matter because I a human being. That’s it. #BlackLivesMatterRegardless

3 highly respected scientists on here recently got well-deserved Wikipedia pages.

Each of them are now flagged for deletion because of racist + sexist bullshit.

If you have Wikipedia skills, DM me, we need your help.

That moment when you meme yourself. 😂😂

[Victor Glover @AstroVicGlover]

Actually no. Remember who is doing space. People are. As we address extreme weather and pandemic disease, we will understand and overcome racism and bigotry so we can safely and together do space. Thanks for asking.

The moment when they realised they just attempted to arrest an FBI agent... 🙂

[Lauren Lyons @Laur_Ly]

Let us apply the same clarity of purpose we put into launching humans to space for the 1st time in nearly a decade during a global pandemic into dismantling the systems of oppression and inequity we live in, lest we repeat our same failures on Mars. #blacklivesmatter

In 1992, NASA astronaut Mae Jemison became the first black woman to fly in space. In 1996, she filed a police brutality complaint against a police officer for twisting her arm and throwing her down on the pavement while arresting her during a traffic stop. (via @exploreplanets)

ben & jerry’s might be expensive but at least i can eat it knowing they support the destruction of white supremacy

[Robert Draper @DraperRobert]

Mattis is still holding back, though. He's privately told friends that Trump's behavior is far worse than the reports & that the republic is on shaky footing. He knows so much more than he's currently divulging.

[JcClappzs @jcriccoo]

When all 50 states are protesting the same issue, the government should realize they are the problem

If you had any doubt about America’s priorities, here’s how the people killing us are equipped vs the people keeping us alive
