SpaceX gets all the attention, but Blue Origin is doing some interesting things. Keep and eye on them. It is good to see multiple companies doing this stuff. (post in memory of Mike Nofsinger)

Turn the moon shot over to Elon Musk
Story here. I suspect that SpaceX can get it done faster and cheaper. (post in memory of Mike Nofsinger)

I don’t say this enough
God bless Elon Musk. Man, if he didn’t exist, we’d be required to invent him. (post in memory of Mike Nofsinger)

Elon Musk is a wizard
This is freaking amazing. The did this 4 times with this same piece of equipment. ( post in memory of Mike Nofsinger, who is enjoying the heck out of this.)

SpaceX Dragon
Looks like the first full crew launch of the Dragon capsule will be in October due to a lot of other missions to the ISS in September. Three NASA and one JAXA astronaut will be on board. Can’t wait to see it. (post in memory of Mike Nofsinger)

More Elon Musk goodness
SpaceX Starlink project is super interesting. If he can pull it off, having satellite based internet access anywhere in the world would be way cool. (post in memory of Mike Nofsinger)

Thank God!
SpaceX has done it. The US is now back in the manned spaceflight business. Looks like the first regular flight to the ISS in the Dragon capsule will be in September and will have 3 NASA astronauts and 1 JAXA astronaut. No more paying the Russians $70 million a seat. Next stop, the moon and Mars. (post in memory of Mike Nofsinger, who I have not doubt is really, really happy.)

More SpaceX goodness
I noted yesterday that SpaceX had successfully caught both halves of the nose shroud for the first time. Now we have video. (post in memory of Mike Nofsinger)

SpaceX does it again
Two new firsts. Caught both halves of the nose shroud and turned around a booster in 51 days. This Elon Musk guy is on to something. (post in memory of Mike Nofsinger who I am sure is loving this.)
