The 2025 Space Threat Assessment just dropped by @CSIS.
Big takeaways:
-- Counterspace weapons are getting more advanced, especially from China
-- GPS Jamming is occurring
-- Space Debris is increasing
If you work in National Security, read this.

Personally I think it's pretty awesome that my wife's band has tickets on @VetTix for a venue here in Colorado. They are pretty awesome and people love to listen to them play.

Sometimes AI can be entertaining to see how it interprets data. Thankfully it Sometimes hits the mark.

A camera on a new version Starlink satellite, has a camera on board which recorded itself departing Starship and provided a look back at Ship.

We put a couple satellites on Flight 12 so that we could see Starship while the satellite deployed and drifted away, we used Starlink to connect with the satellite to get this view, and what a view it is 🤩🚀

Pretty remarkable. Actual progress recorded and documented in historical milestones as we continue to make progress of reaching the stars further than any human has ever explored before.

The phonies are the ones that usually self identify as some resident expert on a topic. Then when questioned two or even three layers deep they point the fingers at everyone else.
Evidence of exceptional ability and asking how they solved hard problems down to the brass tacks level is what matters.
Those who actually deserve credit know the details of the solution, because it was so hard it got seared into their brain. The phonies and posers who falsely claim credit will flounder at the second or third level of detail.

So excited to announce my single "The Sacrifice" won Bronze at the #GlobalMusicAwards! I'm in awe of how much of an impact this song has made not only on the #MilitaryCommunity but around the world! 🇺🇲🌍🏆🎶

The Space Force be launching!
Guardians and Airmen at Vandenberg Space Force Base supported the launch of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket carrying the Starlink 17-21 mission, Friday, April 10, 2026 at 10:04 p.m. from Space Launch Complex 4 East (SLC-4E).
This marks the 24th launch from Vandenberg in 2026!

The Orion spacecraft’s thrusters ignited for the second return trajectory correction burn to fine‑tune the spacecraft’s path toward Earth.
Splashdown of Artemis II is expected around 8:07pm ET on Friday, April 10 (0007 UTC on Saturday, April 11), off the coast of San Diego.

Guardians at the Space Force make sure that both the American public and @NASAArtemis II astronauts are safe during this @nasa mission. They do this by monitoring the space domain for threats during launch operations.

I just want to know where he got the shirt from.

The guy just landed a spacecraft on a comet — one of the most impressive scientific achievements in years.
His reward? A public struggle session because his bowling shirt had scantily clad women on it.
Helen Andrews points out the quiet cost of institutional feminization: HR departments now hunt down any maverick personality and stamp it out.
We’re losing innovators we’ll never even know about, all because someone focused on the shirt instead of the comet.
This is how wokeness actually works.
Have you seen real excellence get punished for something trivial like this?

Earthset.
The Artemis II crew captured this view of an Earthset on April 6, 2026, as they flew around the Moon. The image is reminiscent of the iconic Earthrise image taken by astronaut Bill Anders 58 years earlier as the Apollo 8 crew flew around the Moon.
ALT Earthset captured through the Orion spacecraft window at 6:41 p.m. EDT, April 6, 2026, during the Artemis II crew\u2019s flyby of the Moon. A muted blue Earth with bright white clouds sets behind the cratered lunar surface. The dark portion of Earth is experiencing nighttime. On Earth\u2019s day side, swirling clouds are visible over the Australia and Oceania region.\nIn the foreground, Ohm crater has terraced edges and a flat floor interrupted by central peaks. Central peaks form in complex craters when the lunar surface, liquefied on impact, splashes upwards during the crater\u2019s formation. Credit: NASA

Artemis II has reached its maximum distance from Earth.
On the far side of the Moon, 252,756 miles away, Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy have now traveled farther from Earth than any humans in history and now begin their journey home. Before they left, they said they hoped this mission would be forgotten, but it will be remembered as the moment people started to believe that America can once again do the near-impossible and change the world.
Congratulations to this incredible crew and the entire NASA team, our international and commercial partners, but this mission isn’t over until they’re under safe parachutes, splashing down into the Pacific.

Denying the six Apollo landings isn’t “skepticism.” It’s erasing the work of over 400,000 engineers, technicians, mathematicians, welders, programmers, and astronauts who built the most complex machines in human history. It ignores the factories, the tracking stations, the telemetry, the photographs, the samples, the independent observers, and the entire technological revolution that came out of the program.
Pretending all of that never happened doesn’t expose NASA. It exposes how little respect you have for the people who actually built the future.
And, in my opinion, doing so should be considered treason.

“Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.’ ”
