Space Exploration megathread

Since a number of cool things are happening in space exploration these days, we'll widen the scope of this thread a smidge. Conversation about all things space exploration are welcome, whether it be from NASA, SpaceX, ULA, Blue Origin, or anyone else. Chances are most of the discussion will still be about SpaceX since they love to make things public and fun, but nothing's off limits. I'll eventually get around to modifying the OP to include resources for other companies too, but in the meantime, feel free to post any cool stuff you run across.

I could never survive working for SpaceX, but I envy how high the highs are when you're constantly pushing the boundaries of what's possible.

Got these added to the OP under "where to learn more." Let me know if you have any improvements to the blurbs. I just cranked them out based on memory for the most part.
