SN-15 could be "go" for launch



As of this writing, it appears that Spacex's Starship prototype may attempt a launch very soon now. It appears to be fueling up.

So we have news other than the political scene. If it is a good mission, we may even have some good news to report. Yippey-ti-yo-tay-yay!

Ride 'em cowboy!





Update on SN-15 launch


It launched well, but disappeared quickly into the clouds. The pictures also went out, so there was very little to see. Finally, a video feed returned while it suddenly appeared and began descending towards the ground. It seemed to touch down okay, but a fire appeared shortly after landing.

As of this writing, at 5:45 pm, close to 20 minutes after launch, the fire seemed to be out. Unless something happens, like one time before, the starship may have survived this flight.

At the moment, it looks "aok".
