🚩🚀 Liftoff! #LandSpace launched #Zhuque-3 rocket today! I was at the launch site and saw it successfully delivered the second stage to orbit. While the attempt to recover the first stage didn't make it, the mission is a big deal for the rocket's future development.

And this orbiter should stay right where it is. Moving it could forever damage this priceless artifact. keeptheshuttle.org

Planned satellite constellations may swamp future orbiting telescopes Planned orbital observatories would see satellites cross nearly all of their images.

The planned expansion of constellations, coupled with some of the features of upcoming missions, will mean that at least one proposed observatory will see an average of nearly 100 satellite tracks in every exposure.

My annual Christmas trivia: Frank Capra was a Caltech graduate and lifelong science guy who told a biographer that had he not gone into film, he might have wanted to be an astronomer. When Capra was Academy president in 1937, he invited Edwin and Grace Hubble to be special guests at the Oscars.

Oops! Russia accidentally destroys its only working launch pad as astronauts lift off to ISS The recent launch of a Soyuz rocket carrying three astronauts to the International Space Station has caused significant damage to Russia's only remaining launch pad capable of sending humans into spac...

Russia's only working launch pad has been temp knocked out of action after sustaining significant damage during the recent launch of 3 astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS). This leaves the country unable to send humans into space for the first time in more than 60 years, experts say.

Satellite fleets pose problems for space telescopes, too Proposed “megaconstellations” would contaminate images from telescopes in low-Earth orbit, including Hubble

this pad is the only platform capable of sending crewed spacecraft to the ISS, and repairs may take at least several years.
As a result, future launches will either face major delays or, if repairs prove impossible, may not happen at all

Russia has lost the ability to launch their own into space.
At the Baikonur Cosmodrome, after the launch of the Soyuz MS-28 spacecraft, an accident occurred: the service cabin at Launch Pad 31 collapsed, damaging elements of the launch table.
At the moment,
