Stoke Space is developing a fully reusable rocket designed to reuse both its first and second stages. The first stage lands like Falcon 9, while the second stage returns to Earth after delivering its payload using a unique engine with 30 thrust chambers. Its actively cooled heat shield uses... show more

Stoke Space's Andromeda 2 engine is incredibly unique. It's a single engine which feeds 24 thrusters around an actively cooled heatshield allowing the second stage to reenter engines first. It's also designed to operate in both sea level and vacuum conditions.

10 years ago today, on December 21, 2015, SpaceX achieved a groundbreaking milestone in spaceflight history. The company successfully performed the first-ever orbital rocket landing of its Falcon 9 first stage. This marked the first time a rocket stage was successfully returned to Earth and landed vertically after launching a payload into orbit. Now, in 2025, SpaceX is catching rockets in mid-air with giant tower arms.

Neutron is a reusable medium-lift rocket developed by Rocket Lab for launching large payloads into space. It is powered by nine Archimedes engines on the first stage and a single vacuum-optimized Archimedes engine on the second stage, using liquid methane and oxygen. It can carry up to 13,000 kilograms to low Earth orbit, making it suitable for satellite deployment and future space missions.

Rocket Lab just built a rocket that competes directly with SpaceX Falcon 9. This is Neutron a Reusable medium-lift, built to carry 13,000 kg to low Earth orbit. Nine Archimedes engines on the first stage. One vacuum-optimized Archimedes on the second. Liquid methane and oxygen. Built for satellite deployment and large-scale space missions. The medium-lift launch market just got a second serious player.

🚨 STARSHIP V3 UPGRADES SpaceX just unveiled Starship Version 3 Every major system redesigned: > payload tripled to 100 metric tons > all 33 Raptors now fire simultaneously > 3 grid fins instead of 4, 50% bigger > hot-stage adapter now fully reusable > engine shielding deleted > fuel transfer tube the size of a Falcon 9 first stage > 60 Starlink V3 sats per launch > new docking ports for in-orbit refueling The redesigned internal fuel transfer tube is so massive, it's literally the size of a Falcon 9 first stage. "We kind of put a rocket inside of a rocket"

Starship’s heat shield is one of the most advanced reusable tiles systems flying today Starship uses ~18,000 standardized hexagonal ceramic tiles on its windward side - minimizing unique parts and simplifying mass production The tiles are silica-based ceramics with a high-emissivity black coating, designed to survive extreme re-entry heat while radiating energy away Unlike the Space Shuttle, Starship’s tiles are mechanically pinned, not bonded.... allowing thermal expansion, fast replacement, and far better robustness The entire system is engineered for rapid reuse with minimal refurbishment, a requirement for high-flight-rate, fully reusable spacecraft The rockets that SpaceX is building are fully reusable Starships. When they re-enter Earth's atmosphere, they endure temperatures hotter than molten lava To handle this, the SpaceX team engineered a custom heat shield system SpaceX is building hundreds of Starships in parallel. This flap is getting its tiles installed right now

☄️ The bright object seen over Kyiv may not have been a meteor, but part of Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket During the recent launch, the first stage performed successfully — it was reused for the first time. However, the second stage encountered an anomaly during its second ignition. As a result, the BlueBird 7 satellite by AST SpaceMobile was placed into a lower-than-planned orbit and is expected to eventually re-enter and burn up in the atmosphere. The re-entry of the second stage is likely what caused the bright fiery trail seen in the sky over Kyiv.

This is what it looks like when an Electron 1st stage re enters Earth from space (the wall) on its way to splash down. The engines are not running, it’s the heat shield just doing it’s job.
