Launch infrastructure isn't built on hopes. We've stood up pads, fabricated solutions, and conducted offshore operations.

More land leased, more folks hired, multiple missions on contracted backlog. What did you build this week? #fabricationfriday

Having a rapidly deployable launch system and offshore launch capability is also a solution. So far only two companies have demonstrated those capabilities recently but separately @Astra and @TheSpaceportCo. If they want to increase security this is where investments should go.
Satellites can be replaced quickly—but not if the launch site is targeted first.
In a recent episode of HTK with Kari Bingen and @heatherwilly, @tomkarako explained why real space resilience means defending launch infrastructure, not just replacing what's already gone.

Thank you Senator @cindyhydesmith for your support of the aerospace industry in Mississippi! We loved hosting your team at our homeport in Hancock County, MS.
Our summer internship is a wrap! Hrsh Shah spent the summer working alongside our team, taking his project from concept through development and testing. Naturally, we had to send him off 90s style. Here’s a look back at his summer with TSC, Saved by the Bell edition.
Welcome to the neighborhood @SpaceX! TSC has been operating from Louisiana/Mississippi waters for years now and we love it.
Introducing Starbase, Louisiana – a high-cadence launch site that will enable Starship to open a pathway to the stars for humanity.
Thank you to @LAGovJeffLandry and the great people of Louisiana for all of their support as we work together on this audacious project → spacex.com/sites/starbase-la
Sea trials complete on next-gen attritable USV missile platform.
Low-cost, high-capacity fires — inspired by the Navy’s attritable unmanned surface vessel (LUSV) concept. Missile-agnostic payload bay. Container-transportable for rapid CONUS-to-theater deployment. Optimized for distributed maritime operations (DMO) in austere/expeditionary environments. Combat-relevant now for short/medium-range c-UAS in the littorals — scalable to Mk 41 VLS for long-range strike.
This is a sneak-preview video, we'll have much more to share in the coming weeks on this exciting new capability.
Is it really innovating if it doesn't require a respirator? 🤔 #fabricationfriday

Buckler™, our sub-$100K interceptor, is flight-tested!
Thanks to @TheSpaceportCo for partnering on our early July sea-launch demonstration to advance affordable air defense for the warfighter.
See Buckler in person at the @SpaceMissileDef SMD Symposium in August.

Interesting. Aerospace Corporation writes re: super heavy launchers: "...increased size may cause launch prices, on a per kilogram basis, to go up rather than down."

Our customer's offshore payload processing container is coming together nicely. No powerpoint, no BS, just real hardware delivered on time and on budget. #fabricationfriday

Some interesting details in this IG report:
• SpaceX says it needs at least 15 launches for HLS landing
• Blue Origin seeking third New Glenn pad, just north of NASA's LC-39 complex
• SLS nitrogen demands may cause 1-2 month blackout of N2
