📢 NEWS: Hey space debris, we're watching you from every angle! 👀
ADRAS-J has completed not one, but TWO fly-arounds of the upper stage, confirming the planned capture point has no major damage.
This milestone sets the stage for future removal and a sustainable space environment!

Thrilled I was there to see it!
🚀 Since 1957, the Atlas family has launched a wide array of space vehicles, including satellites, probes, and space planes. Today, the Atlas V completed its final launch for the @SpaceForceDoD, marking the end of an era and 53 launches for the #SpaceCoast. 🌌

After a joke during the press conference, ULA's @torybruno gets his tie cut after his "first people launch", a tradition usually after a flight director's first launch

I made it out of the jungle alive ❤
This was an adventure of a lifetime, from getting lost in dense unexplored wilderness to taking very high doses of ayahuasca.
I'll post videos about some of these adventures in a week or so. First, here's a 4 hour podcast conversation with Paul Rosolie that we recorded deep in the jungle.
This time in the jungle has deepened my gratitude for getting to exist on this beautiful planet with all of you. I love you all ❤
The podcast conversation is here on X and is up on YouTube, Spotify, and everywhere else. Links in comment.

NASA has awarded Intuitive Machines $30 million as a prime contractor to complete a Lunar Terrain Vehicle Services contract. The company’s global Moon RACER team will be tasked with creating a feasibility roadmap to develop and deploy a Lunar Terrain Vehicle on the Moon using Intuitive Machines’ Nova-D cargo-class lander.

I'm reminded of when I was a planetarium presenter in the 1990s. I was trying to find a Magellan image of Venus & I couldn't find it. My director put an artist's image of Titan in the deck as a replacement. " That's Titan!? " I said. His reply: 1/

Over the past weeks, three engineering teams have continued to review mission data.
Team One is organizing all of the data received from the lunar surface into a repository to make it easily accessible.
Team Two is reconstructing the mission by reviewing each system and evaluating its performance.
Team Three is taking this information and looking at reconstruction simulations, models, and analysis for recommendations on near-term design changes.
