The path to launch is filled with obstacles and success is only possible through the tireless efforts of many working together towards a common goal. “Critical Path” continues the ongoing Starship series, following SpaceX engineers through the final days before launch of the first Starship V3 and the challenges that come with development of the world’s most powerful and fully reusable rocket.

[SpaceX @SpaceX]

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

Russians invented a completely made-up ‘expert’ - ‘Dr Manuel Godsin’ - complete with a stolen photo from a real Russian guy, fake PhD claims, and zero real existence.

They used OpenAI’s ChatGPT to ghostwrite dozens of pro-Russia, anti-West articles under his name, planting them in African newsrooms across SA, Kenya, Nigeria & more.

73 publications. 27 sites. 8 countries.

Jeez Louise! 🤦
It’s a new day indeed!

Fire fighting pilots are a very special breed. Long stressful hours in a hot cockpit, flying through smoke in turbulent air, close to obstacles. Intense concentration 100% of the time.
This Huey pilot survived fighting a fire in Hout Bay, Cape Town, today.They all deserve praise.

If you see anyone not mourning the death of Robert Redford the way you would like them to please call their employer and get them fired!

Some people @vincenzolandino @bizofspeed are ripping off content from JSBM and passing it off as their own work. Do not be taken in by them.

This is factually incorrect and just shoddy journalism. As we made clear at the media briefing this morning, there has been a 215% increase in illegal borders crossings that the BMA *successfully prevented.* Please read for meaning.
