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.

No visibility down here. Could hear but not see from Port Isabel. Even from on site at Starbase, same thing per Mrs. ZimZam.

But those onboard views are niiiiiiiice!

I feel like this thread should be renamed as the space exploitation thread. None of these private sector actions are exploring.

That's not really accurate. You're aware NASA is paying for a lot of this, right? Starship will hopefully be a moon lander and, theoretically, Mars some day.
