The Phoebus-2A nuclear rocket being run at 4100 MW power output at 118 kg/s hydrogen, in a long-duration test that lasted 32 minutes: It's a good reminder that such powerful nuclear propulsion was built, tested outdoors to its limits, then simply buried.

#OTD in 1947 a captured German V-2 rocket was launched from the deck of US Navy carrier USS Midway South of Bermuda. Due to an erratic trajectory the rocket eventually broke up at altitude but regardless it was the first successful launch of a ballistic missile at sea.

Passengers on a commercial flight captured the launch of Artemis II on camera The plane happened to pass near the launch trajectory at the exact moment of liftoff, giving passengers a rare view of the rocket launch right from their windows.

🇺🇦🚀 Ukraine has created the DART rocket for launch from aerostats — protected from radio-electronic warfare (EW) systems. ▪️ The Center of Innovative Technologies Program has presented the DART rocket, designed to be launched from stratospheric aerostats at an altitude of 12–18 km. The body length is 1.84 meters, and the weight is 13 kg. The warhead mass varies from 3.5 to 10 kg depending on the configuration; the damaging elements are made of graphite. ▪️ The main feature is its resilience to radio-electronic warfare (EW) systems: upon reaching an altitude of approximately 6 km, the navigation system is fully deactivated, the solid-fuel engine is activated, and the rocket proceeds toward the target without any active signals. Accuracy during the descent phase is ensured by servo drives that stabilize the trajectory. ▪️ In the future, it is planned to develop both ballistic and “air-to-ground” class missiles based on the DART platform. The DART rocket represents an innovative and cost-effective solution that leverages high-altitude aerostats for launch. Its design, which minimizes reliance on active navigation during the critical flight phase, makes it particularly resistant to enemy electronic warfare systems and opens new possibilities for deep strikes.

China successfully conducted a low-altitude demonstration and verification flight test of the Long March 10 carrier rocket at the Wenchang Space Launch Center in Hainan province. The Long March 10, standing 92.5 meters tall — roughly the height of a 30-story building — is a new-generation launch vehicle crucial for sending astronauts to the moon. #MegaProject #space

I sent an AI computer to the edge of space! HAAID-1 was the first-of-its-kind high-altitude balloon mission. It reached an altitude of ~19 km and ran a 360M-parameter LLM on a Raspberry Pi at -68°C.

China’s Zhuque-3, developed by LandSpace, is a stainless-steel, methane-liquid-oxygen reusable rocket — 66 meters tall, 660 tons at liftoff, with an 18-ton payload to low Earth orbit (LEO). If its first orbital launch succeeds this year, it could rival SpaceX’s Falcon 9.
