This EO is actually great. Sure, it doesn’t mention #Bitcoin, but Bitcoin is inevitable.
The clear wins are protections on the freedoms to transact, mine, hold, and to develop software (which is super important), while nuking CBDCs.
This is all that’s needed really.
Flight Day 1 pics during our 190x1200 km orbit. Each image reminds me of the technicians, engineers, scientists, astronauts & pioneers who came before us. We stood on the shoulders of giants and we will continue to do so as we move forward and explore the final frontier.
Commander @rookisaacman has egressed Dragon and is going through the first of three suit mobility tests that will test overall hand body control, vertical movement with Skywalker, and foot restraint
I wanted to share some updates:
- The primary factor driving the launch timing for Polaris Dawn is the splashdown weather within Dragon's limits. Unlike an ISS mission, we don’t have the option to delay long on orbit, so we must ensure the forecast is as favorable as possible before we launch.
- We sincerely apologize to those who have traveled to see our launch and have faced delays. Many of our guests were able to witness 1062’s final Starlink mission. While it’s unfortunate she didn’t stick the last landing, the cause is well understood, and she successfully completed her mission. 1062 had an incredible career, flying many notable missions, including Inspiration4 and AX-1. It’s remarkable to think about the life this amazing rocket led from the day she first rolled off the assembly line.
- When we are ready to launch, we will be working within the same window as previously briefed.
- The crew remains in quarantine, staying productive, keeping fit, and ready to launch within approximately 30 hours of receiving a favorable forecast.
Space exploration demands patience, resilience, and teamwork. We are deeply grateful for the dedication of everyone involved and for the support of those who believe in our mission. Together, we are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible and continuing humanity’s journey to the stars.
It’s official: Spot Eth ETFs have been made effective by the SEC. The 424(b) forms are rolling in now, the last step = all systems go for tomorrow’s 930am launch. Game on.
