China is serious about the moon

And we should be too.  Story here. (Post in memory of Mike Nofsinger)

More SpaceX success

Time just made Elon Musk Man of the Year.  IMHO it is well deserved.  We wouldn’t be in space like we are if it wasn’t for him.  An example. (post in memory of Mike Nofsinger)

This is cool

While I am generally wary of Chinese ambitions in space, I have to say that this is a cool example of cooperation and an indication of where we could go with a less oppressive Chinese government.

China is serious about space: Part 654321

Story here.  Note, there is no such thing in China as a “private company”.  ( Post in memory of Mike Nofsinger)

Well, this is good news

First orbital Starship test in January.

Interesting USAF developments

Story here.  I wonder how much is already operational that we are not aware of?

Congrats SpaceX

Crew-2 is back to Earth. Crew 3 is ready to go. (post in memory of Mike Nofsinger)

How many times do I have to say it?

China is serious about space.  We need to get serious too.  Thank God for Elon Musk. ( post in memory of Mike Nofsinger, who would be pulling his hair out over this, if he had any left. 🙂  )

A private space station

Blue Origin is touting plans for a private space station for research and tourism.  I can see a demand for this, especially for countries without a space program who still want to conduct space based micro-gravity experiments. (post in memory of Mike Nofsinger)

China’s new weapon?

Is it even a weapon?  Sadly, I despair that the US will get serious about military and technology development.
