Starship transiting the Sun this morning during Flight 14 — prior to this morning's mission, this has never been captured before with the world's largest and most powerful rocket.
I’ve ached over this shot for years, mainly for two reasons: what does methane exhaust look like silhouetted against the Sun, and how violent are the acoustic energy waves from 33 Raptor engines on the Super Heavy booster?
Well...now we have an answer.

Astronomer friends: remember, tonight is a unique opportunity to set up a telescope and give hundreds of trick-or-treating kids a core memory. Sadly, clouds will prevent me from doing it this year, so you will have to do it for me!
Saturn is in an ideal position to view tonight!

SpaceX has rounded off an impressive week of testing involving the flight vehicles for Starship's next two missions, capping it off with a Halloween celebration projected on the Megabay.

Went off-roading yesterday. The four-million-pound launch bridge is being driven back into position today by self-propelled motorized transporters (SPMT). We placed dirt in the flame trench to provide a ramp for the SPMTs to gently set the bridge atop it.

Hull 3, a Haven-1 qualification primary structure, is complete. We manufactured, inspected, and proof tested it in-house in Long Beach in five months, four months faster than Hull 2, the flight structure. Hull 4 is next, allowing us to further refine our process.

Triple digits unlocked. 💯🚀
The 100th Electron has left the factory, headed for launch.
Thank you and congratulations to the many people behind this rocket, and the 99 before it.

Today our team lifted and installed New Glenn's second stage (GS2) at @NASAStennis. The vehicle was tandem lifted from its cradle using the Main Derrick Crane at the historic B-2 Test Stand to lift the forward end, while a mobile tailing crane simultaneously lifted the aft end. GS2 was shifted to a vertical orientation, lifted 218 feet above ground, and lowered into the B-2 test position. A great example of what Team Blue and our NASA partners can accomplish together. Final preparations for our first hotfire test are ongoing.

Neutron’s Stage 2 and Thrust Module have arrived to Virginia. After a short barge ride from the Neutron Factory, these major assemblies have now been offloaded on Wallops Island and are going through arrival checkouts.
Next up: integrated fluids testing and launch mount interface checkouts for the Thrust Module, with Stage 2 to follow on the test stand beside it soon after.
