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.

Ready for fish from outer space? If the soon to be launched Europa Clipper is successful, we'll be learning about them soon...

So glad they are flying again. My one and only bucket item is getting close to reality. Never thought it would.

I wonder if Elon even goes to these anymore.

That's the first time I've "heard" it go supersonic. Startled me.

Doubt it. He doesn't even make it down there for every important launch, let alone all of these "mundane" Starlink launches.

Yikes. I'm always kind of amazed that ISS hasn't had more issues with tiny object blasting directly through it. Close call.

Not as exciting as when it's people, but at least it's not just another Starlink launch.
