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.

Hope so!!! Although it is looking a bit foggy "low altitude clouds" down there.

I'm going to watch the flight in the SpaceX lobby on my Oculus Quest.

Their stream says 23 knots of wind. They can't be thinking of flying in that...

Sounds like they are closing out road/beach for something to potentially happen today. Sounds like if it does, it is this afternoon.

FWIW, I highly recommend the Next Spaceflight app. They'll shoot you a notification when things are getting close for Starship events (as well as most other launches).

Things are progressing, so far, for an SN9 flight today. Tim's stream is live, but not much going on really.

Some reported that the TFR for today was cancelled, but they closed the road and cleared the pad.
