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.

Yep. Not exactly the most exciting webcast. Can't recall seeing a black screen for a full minute before.

OK, successful fairing deploy. That was kind of odd.

Well, I'm giving this webcast a D. Not a lot of effort on the visuals for this one. Oh well. [/spoiled]

Some things can't be helped. Watching the altitude and speed of Stage 1 decreasing was something I either missed before, or is new. Fascinating to see

Yeah, true. They usually just show state 2 telemetry, but on these classified launches, apparently they want to have SOMETHING to show.
