    Space station tosses 2.9-ton hunk of space junk overboard. It will stay in orbit for years.

    2.9 tonnes of nickel-hydrogen batteries burning up in the upper atmosphere or as seen with recent F9/stage 2 re-entry possibly as low as 40 miles or less considering the density of a 2.9 tonne pallet. Can't help thinking of the toxic pollution produced by this event. I don't know if they've now...

    Any ideas on this shot from T+2.50. Ring breaking off from rear of nozzle. More ice? https://1drv.ms/u/s!Ak4gvTRXIKiagRP55DzDXeWbt9Ow Image from NASA Tim

    Where did the SpaceX footage go?

    Looks like the mouse is well known! Now the internet questions are; Do they send up the same mouse each launch? Are any mice harmed in the making of this film? Does the mouse get rescued along with stage 2? On a more serious note, I also noticed at T+2.50 an almost circular dark ring slip...

    Where did the SpaceX footage go?

    Ok, more bits of footage appearing on Twitter today of debris moving around the Merlin Vac. The flat earthers, CT, CGI, fake brigade say it's a ---- wait for it --- mouse. At T +4.13 Apparently mice (not ice) have been seen scampering around the merlin during 2nd stage burn before! Not...

    Where did the SpaceX footage go?

    Saw a tweet where someone said Whoa! what was that on the Merlin at T + 06.37. Rolled back the feed and saw what they meant, something weird moving around on the Merlin body. Now, following day can't find that footage, it jumps and misses out that part. Who has it now? Did anyone record the...

    May 2020 launches, questions.

    New member and first proper post on forum. I've been checking out as much as I can about the next launches; 7th May & 27th May. Starlink 8, Dragon. Basic questions maybe but. Live online webcasts/footage. Not sure if NASA & SpaceX have their own seperate feeds? Best option for live viewing of...

    Introduce yourself! (And show us your swag)

    Well, here's how it's come about, lockdown! My birthday is 22nd April, not a lot going on in my world that day. Until I heard a local radio station going on about a new satellite train. Wondered what that could be, a train in space! Spent the rest of the day chasing links, hunting, watching...
