Earthrise, captured by the Japanese spacecraft Kaguya from lunar orbit 🌏 Such a "rise" can only be filmed from orbit, because from the lunar surface, Earth always remains in roughly the same spot in the sky. This is because the Moon always faces Earth with the same side due to tidal locking. The video is sped up.

🚨 10,000 STARLINK SATELLITES IN ORBIT - AND NOBODY'S EVEN CLOSE SpaceX crossed 10K satellites last week. For context: the entire world launched around 8,700 total spacecraft in all of history before Starlink started. They're completing Starlink missions every 48 hours now. Just set a California pad turnaround record - 2 days, 10 hours between launches from the same facility. That's industrial-scale space operations, not aerospace. The constellation now blankets the planet with low-latency internet from pole to pole. Amazon's Project Kuiper? Still on the launchpad. OneWeb? Bankrupt and resurrected, now limping along. China's building their own - years behind. SpaceX isn't winning the satellite internet race. They've won it long ago. Everyone else is fighting for scraps.

🚨SPACEX TO LAUNCH FIRST-EVER HUMAN POLAR MISSION: FRAM2 CREW GOING WHERE NO ONE HAS BEFORE Monday night's Falcon 9 launch will send Dragon spacecraft on unprecedented journey orbiting both Earth's poles in low orbit. This mission marks the first time humans will fly a complete polar orbit - venturing over both Arctic and Antarctic regions. The veteran Dragon capsule previously carried Crew-1, Inspiration4, and made history during Polaris Dawn with the first commercial spacewalk. The four-person crew will conduct 22 research studies including taking the first-ever X-ray in space and growing mushrooms in microgravity. Source: SpaceX RT

The United Launch Alliance Atlas V has arrived on the launch pad for its midnight ride to low Earth orbit tonight, continuing the rocket's workhorse service in helping deploy the Amazon Leo constellation. ULA's Atlas has launched more than half of the network's satellites so far. ULA is proceeding with a continuous roll-and-launch in a single-day countdown, part of our efforts to increase launch cadence for our Amazon Leo customer. This effort reduces the amount of time the rocket spends at the pad, enabling launch to occur sooner. Liftoff time is 12:24 a.m. EDT (0424 UTC). // Amazon Leo

Launch technicians are the last people on Earth to touch an Electron rocket before it goes to space. When they depart the pad in preparation for liftoff, you know it's almost time to go to orbit. Your work day could look like this too. Launch Technician roles open now:

Anthropic is preparing to launch a new feature called "Orbit" for its Claude Cowork platform, potentially debuting at the upcoming Code with Claude conference in San Francisco. The hidden developer gate for this feature is reportedly named "tibro enabled" ("orbit" spelled backwards). Orbit is designed as a "proactive assistant" that connects directly with workplace applications like Gmail, Slack, GitHub, Google Calendar, Drive, and Figma. Rather than waiting for manual prompts, it aims to proactively generate daily briefings, insights, and suggested actions.

China has become the second country in the world with an orbital-class launcher system with first-stage booster recovery through controlled reentry and propelled landing. After delivering its payload to low Earth orbit, The Long March 10B had its booster landing on a recovery ship in the South China Sea with a net-and-hook system. SpaceX has more than a decades lead on the Chinese, with Starship being at a completely different position in this space race but the Chinese are clearly going to be putting a lot of effort into trying to catch up. It’s remarkable that the Europeans have been so slow to start experimenting with these technologies. ESA and ArianeGroup have been slow off their feet and both the Themis and Callisto programs are still very far from pulling off what the Chinese did today and miles and miles away from being able to do what SpaceX does.

The Soviet Buran program developed reusable orbital spacecraft comparable to the U.S. Space Shuttle, but with far more advanced automation. Its lone 1988 mission showcased a fully unmanned launch, orbit, and autonomous landing—an unprecedented achievement at the time. Lifted by the Energia rocket rather than onboard engines, the orbiter relied on sophisticated avionics and a unique engine-less design. Despite its technical success, the Buran program was canceled after the Cold War, and the only flown orbiter was later destroyed in a 2002 hangar collapse.

Artificial embryo samples aboard Tiangong Space Station for life science research Space "artificial embryo" samples and other life science experiments delivered by the Tianzhou-10 cargo spacecraft have been installed into experiment modules aboard China's Tiangong space station, the Technology and Engineering Center for Space Utilization under the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) said on Wednesday. The "artificial embryos" are stem cell-derived artificial human embryos. The embryos, though not true life forms and unable to develop into human babies, will help simulate the earliest stages of human development. Once the experiments are completed, the artificial embryo samples will be frozen in orbit and then returned to Earth on a future mission for side-by-side analysis with ground-based controls in laboratories on the ground. This effort is part of a broader suite of 41 space science experiments being deployed aboard Tiangong, supporting its latest round of research on the orbiting laboratory.

🚨SPACEX NAILS LAUNCH OF REVOLUTIONARY DIRECT-TO-CELL STARLINK SATELLITES SpaceX just successfully deployed 20 next-generation Starlink satellites to orbit - including 13 equipped with groundbreaking Direct to Cell capabilities. The Falcon 9 lifted off from Vandenberg, lighting up the California coast. The veteran booster, on its eighth flight, stuck another perfect landing on the "Of Course I Still Love You" droneship in the Pacific Ocean. This marks another milestone in SpaceX's march toward global connectivity, with these new satellites set to enable direct communication between standard cell phones and space. Source: SpaceX
