🚨 JUST IN: NASA mission managers have GREENLIT Artemis II executing the burn that will propel them to the MOON The main engine will burn for 6 minutes, the mission will go beyond the far side of the moon early next week, and use lunar gravity to boomerang back America is officially going back! 🇺🇸 "Mission managers approved translunar injection late this afternoon after a very thorough review because after the burn, options for an early return become more limited." "Just after 2.30 p.m. this afternoon, the NASA ground team woke up, the Artemis II astronauts, with a musical call. They featured music, the song Greenlight by John Legend, featuring Andre 3000." "The four astronauts also had to wake this morning at 650 Eastern to ignite their main engine and raise the Orion spacecraft to a higher Earth orbit in preparation for tonight's trans lunar injection burn." "This maneuver will involve firing the main engine for just under six minutes, sending the spacecraft on a path that will take it beyond the far side of the moon early next week and use lunar gravity to boomerang in roughly the opposite direction, essentially free falling back to Earth for a splashdown off the California coast on day 10 of the mission."

Our #GhostRiders completed another lunar orbit maneuver with a 3 minute, 18 second burn early this morning. This maneuver moved the lander from a high elliptical orbit to a much lower elliptical orbit around the Moon. Shortly after the burn, Blue Ghost captured incredible footage of the Moon's far side, about 120 km above the surface. In this orbit, the team will experience planned rolling comms blackouts as Blue Ghost goes around the far side of the Moon. When on the near side, the team will continue to downlink data and finalize the plan for our next maneuver that will get Blue Ghost even closer to the lunar surface and keep us right on track for landing on March 2. #BGM1

I've come to appreciate boring hotfires. Our BE-7 team recently completed a 2,500 second hotfire test at 10klbf on a development engine, setting the record for the longest-duration turbo pump-fed liquid rocket engine hotfire. This built on some of the most rigorous testing in the history of propulsion, with the previous record set by the RS-25 engine that powered the Space Shuttle. They recorded two 2,017 second tests in 1988. It's not lost on us that we're following a path those engineers blazed, and we're grateful for it. Grab the popcorn and enjoy watching 41 minutes of hotfire goodness.

Ship 40 has performed its first Static Fire test in preparation for the lucky Flight 13. This appears to have been a single engine test, but came after a hold of nearly 20 minutes. Assuming they were intentionally allowing the propellant to warm up. This may have been the first realistic simulation of an in-space relight burn that SpaceX has ever conducted during ground testing. 🎥: Avid Space

Archimedes second stage engine full duration burn - complete ✅ (and what a thing of beauty). The AVac (Archimedes Vacuum) engine produces 1.2x lbf of its Stage 1 variant and stands ~2.5m taller thanks to its extended nozzle optimized for the vacuum conditions of space. Recent AVac testing included a stub skirt for the nozzle. Since full length vacuum nozzles at ground level risk flow separation and instability, stub skirts are used to anchor our engineers' analysis for how the engine will perform with the full nozzle in vacuum conditions - all critical preparation for Neutron's first flight.

Success! 🚀 🇨🇦 At 3:45 PM EDT on Friday May 16th, 2025, we successfully tested both our new orbital Darkhorse engine test cell and our new third generation 3D printed Hadfield liquid rocket engine for the first time, marking a significant step towards Canada’s first commercial space launch. The test ran for 7 seconds at our propulsion test range, a company-owned secure site in Northeastern Ontario, successfully delivering nominal thrust, active cooling, and impulse results. This major test of the Darkhorse test cell and Hadfield Mk III engine lays the groundwork for NordSpace's Tundra orbital rocket, as the test cell is specifically designed to integrate with our turbo pump assembly in the next phase of propulsion development. Long duration tests are scheduled for the coming days, along with refinements to fuel mixture ratios and higher-pressure scenarios to test the limits of Darkhorse and our new engines. Minor upgrades and fixes to address a harmless leak in the cryogenic liquid oxygen line and design changes to our experimental control rods have already been made. Hot on the heels of our successful integrated test of our Taiga sub-orbital launch vehicle back in January, rapid developments and approvals at our spaceport in Newfoundland and Labrador, announcement of the SHARP (Supersonics and Hypersonics Applications Research Program), hosting the inaugural Canadian Space Launch Conference in Ottawa, and more - NordSpace is strengthening its position every day to ensure sovereign space launch is not just possible, but probable for Canada. Our historic first experimental flight is scheduled for 2025 from our spaceport, Spaceport Canada. NordSpace's CEO and founder, Rahul Goel, said “This successful test is not only a testament to NordSpace’s unmatched technical competency, but also to the success of our new project management framework, design philosophy, and engineering mindset used to deliver results for complex projects on time and within budget. Success on the first try with countless potential sources of failure is not common in the development of complex rocket systems, but our team succeeded by prioritizing first principles engineering. This test confirmed that we do have the right stuff, and that we will deliver this incredibly important sovereign launch capability for all Canadians. Like the land, air, and sea, space is no longer some final frontier for Canada. Space is an essential domain we must unlock, and launch a capability we must own. Without it, we are jeopardizing not only our security, sovereignty and economy, but are also relegating Canada to a participatory instead of a leadership role on the world stage. We must not let this happen.”

Senior Iranian official Mohsen Rezaee to CNN: If Trump takes the negotiations seriously, $24 billion is not much to America. If he wants to reach an agreement with Iran, this $24 billion is a test of trust that Iran wants to have with Trump. This is a test that America must pass, and the path will be open. This is our money, not America's money.

In a recent hotfire our BE-3U engine reached more than 211,500 lbf thrust. That makes BE-3U the highest thrust-to-weight hydrogen engine in history, at more than 90! Here is the video of that test for your enjoyment.

A controlled taxi test on the jet engine test bed prototype. Giving u a glimpse of what the runway test may look like. Never forget, that Whatever the white man can do, we can do same, or even better, all we need, is willpower, and a war chest of resources ⚡️ The black man is NOT inferior to the white man ⚠️, we are capable of building great things too. This test was done at mild engine power, apologies for the lack of PPE, I didn't just have the strength to go upstairs and get em🤦🏻‍♂️, I'm still in recovery, not working at full capacity, plus it was impromptu, borne out of me missing the jet engine for so long #Zedora #madeinEbonyi #madeinNigeria 🇳🇬

Breathalyzer tests are claimed to be alcohol specific yet many substances have been proved to test positive in court that do not contain Alcohol. This is not a "false positive" this is a falsification of the specificity of the test and is the same as PCR.
