Two weeks ago, the head of NASA seemed sick of waiting for SpaceX and Boeing Co. to finish developing the capsules that are supposed to carry U.S. astronauts to and from the International Space Station.
This is the best article that I have yet seen that intentionally gets inside the head of Technocrat Jeff Bezos, head of Amazon and the richest man on planet earth. Bezos is building an empire that resembles Star Trek's villainous Borg: swallowing e
Boeing is investing $20 million in Virgin Galactic, a vertically integrated human spaceflight company.
The companies will work together to broaden commercial space access and transform global travel technologies.
Boeing's venture arm HorizonX will take a $20 million minority stake in Sir Richard Branson's space tourism company Virgin Galactic once it goes public later this year.
Elon Musk indicates that SpaceX will for orbit with Starship as soon as possible after the 20-kilometer test. The timing is based upon building the increased number of Raptor engines.
After Elon Musk gave his presentation about the progress of SpaceX's Starship program, I had the opportunity to pick his brain just a little. In general I wanted to let him talk a lot and see where his mind went, but luckily for us aerospace enthusia
Elon Musk says his best ever rocket design decision was switching to 301 stainless steel for the construction of the SpaceX Super Heavy Starship. SpaceX was already the fastest builder of rockets.
Joseph Agnew, undergrad and research assistant from the University of Alabama in Huntsville's Propulsion Research Center (PRC), presented the results of his study "An Examination of Warp Theory and Technology to Determine the State of the Art and
Elon Musk tweeted out photos of the nearly complete SpaceX Starship Orbital prototype. There are three Raptor engines in it. The main work to complete appears to be adding the nosecone.

The "triangular craft" recorded by the International Space Station live feed "hovering" over Earth has lead viewers to believe it is a US Space Force ship
The SpaceX Starship Mk1 in Boca Chica will be fully stacked when Elon Musk presents on Saturday. The STarship Mk1 has two rear moving fins. This is a new design.
In August, 2019, SLS (Space Launch System) managers for Boeing and Northrop Grumman gave that timeline at an aerospace industry forum. Boeing is in charge of assembling the rocket's core stage, and Northrop Grumman is building the big solid-rocket
Blue Origin has made major investments and upgrades to facilities at the Kennedy Space Center site 36. Blue Origin is clearly preparing for major New Glenn reusable rocket launches.
The new lunar space elevator study differs from previous proposal would be anchored on the moon and stretch 200,000 miles toward Earth until hitting the geostationary orbit height (about 22,236 miles above sea level).
Innovate or die. It's a term often thrown about in tech circles as a not-so-subtle reminder of how resting on one's laurels can be bad business practice, and it's an ethos that SpaceX certainly seems to be guided by.
