Ehhh, Falcon is still an absolute champ. But yeah, Starship development is not going according to plan and nobody will fly on it anytime soon.

The goal remains for the first flight of Tenacity this year.

No way. EMI/EMC, acoustics, DITL, hot fire... Yeah, no way.

Good on them. It's late and expensive, but it's flying now, and can hopefully help bridge the gap for European launch until one of the startups gets up and running.

I'm pretty disappointed in the last two, but the failures were both ship v2 that completely redid the plumbing. But yeah, you'd think they'd be doing better by now.

Angara instead of Energia M is even more depressing than Angara on its own.

Stuck the landing!

Onto some payload ops. Hopefully the SCALPSS cameras got good footage of the landing plume. They have a handful of regolith experiments to try out. And LISTER- drill baby drill.

The video before the entry burn is surreal.

Go Blue Ghost!

Intuitive Machines, you'd better nail your second one later this week.
