One of the coolest jobs in exploration is be a Principal Investigator. Blue’s Chief Scientist Steve Squyres was the PI for the scientific payloads on Spirit and Opportunity, the intrepid Mars Rovers. Fun conversation on the Ascending Node, out next week! Here's a clip to hold you over.

Sixty‑nine years ago, Atlas took its first flight! Since that first launch, the Atlas family has carried out 691 missions across national security, commercial, scientific and human spaceflight, standing as a foundational pillar of America’s space program.

Wonder what this ship is doing 🤔 I've been watching @Arianespace's Canopee for a while here in the background and figured since RocketShip is still in Decatur, now is a good time to bring Canopee into the fleet of ships ill be tracking! #maritime #ArianespaceCanopee

SpaceX's new covered rocket transport barge (Marmac 31) - nicknamed "You'll Thank Me Later" - is approaching Port Canaveral right now. It will be used to transport Starship rocket stages to Port Canaveral from Texas, but has rocket transport stands (“ring walls”) this trip. nsf.live/spacecoast

Behind the scenes as prep continues for Leo Vulcan 1 (LV-01), the first of 38 Vulcan missions on contract with @ULAlaunch. Teams have completed integration of the first LEO-optimized Centaur upper stage with Vulcan inside Amazon's dedicated Vertical Integration Facility (VIF-A), allowing ULA to begin the next phase of testing ahead of upcoming Leo Vulcan launches from SLC-41.

Some LC-36 updates. Now that we’ve had access to the pad and integration facility we can share a bit of good news. The propellant farm, oxygen, liquid hydrogen and LNG tanks are all in good shape. This is good luck because these are very long lead items. The water tower is also good. The big support tower is damaged, but it can be repaired in place rather than torn down and replaced. The booster “Never Tell Me The Odds” and the three GS-2s that were onsite in the integration facility also look good. I’ve seen some speculation that we might move directly to the 9x4 configuration, but we won’t do that. Rate manufacturing of 7x2 is going well, and we’re going to continue that at pace as planned and store the stages for use. In addition, we had already been working for some time on eliminating our transporter-erector in favor of an alternative vertical conop, and we’ll now go directly to that; so we don’t need a new transporter-erector. We will fly again before the end of this year. Gradatim Ferociter.

Just a stunning change of events one day makes! Sad! The importance of stay out zones during static fire testing & launches is so important!🔥🚀🔥 #BlueOrigin #NewGlenn #SLC36 Pilot followed all FAA & Military restrictions for this 800mm shot above Port Canaveral May 29th.
