Just came home from short of 2 weeks in the States.
Never have I been so appreciative of European payment providers!
Now, if we can just get some seriously ambitious space launch providers in Europe, I won't have to go through anything like this again, is that so much to ask?

Here it is: humanity’s final look at @NASAWebb as it heads into deep space to answer our biggest questions. Alone in the vastness of space, Webb will soon begin an approximately two-week process to deploy its antennas, mirrors, and sunshield. #UnfoldTheUniverse

Falcon 9’s first stage has landed on the Just Read the Instructions droneship, marking the 100th successful landing of an orbital class rocket booster!
Urgh, this article about @blueorigin is hard to read, partially because it's a subject (space) that's near and dear to me, partially because I can recognize so much of what's said here, from the public sector jobs I've had, in and outside the space industry.
Heres's a good overview of the Blue Origin leadership mess, by @wapodavenport and @rachelerman. I'm told Jeff Bezos doesn't read the space press, so hopefully this article in his own newspaper gets his attention.

I just watched an episode of a @day9tv playthrough of #strangeland by @WWSGames, and it gave me strong "metaphysical #PlansecapeTorment"-vibes and I'm absolutely thrilled it's available for #Linux too, will absolutely give it a try!
Hah! I just read @WWSGames profile, I guess it's no coincidence I got the #Planescape vibes, now I'm even more stoked to try #Strangeland !

I recently finished transforming a small basement room into a home gym.
It probably hasn't been a year since I worked out last time, but it certainly feels that way!
Funny how much you can appreciate the little things so much more, once you've been reminded of life without them!
Please consider signing this petition, to rename the future Lunar Gateway in memory of Apollo astronaut Michael Collins.
I think it would be s beautiful way to honor someone who has risked a lot for the future of the rest of us.

Dragon has separated from Falcon 9’s second stage and is on its way to the @space_station! Autonomous docking tomorrow at ~5:10 a.m. EDT
It arrived!
I'm a firm believer that praise and criticism should not be mutually exclusive, so thanks a whole lot to @Creality3dprint and @RealSexyCyborg for making this possible, I'm really excited to see what this baby can do!

If you aren't watching our live stream, you are missing out on some interesting rocket nuggets! 🚀
Here's an injector straight out of the engine that fired 30 minutes ago. Next injector is back on the test stand and should be ready to go up in ~5 minutes.

First 3D printed stainless steel injector test was another success!
We are down to our last of 6 injectors to test. Changing injectors as we speak, then back to the test stand for another burn in about an hour. 🚀

Looks like a clean static fire test for SN 11 this morning. SpaceX has options to launch on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday. The first two days may have better weather.

I give two thumbs up to this Netflix documentary. Great info and explanations that could be used in a science classroom. Teachers learn...students learn...planet heals.
