This image was a total experiment. 30-second exposure from a remote camera with a 10-stop ND filter over the lens, sound activated from about a mile away from Pad 2. Absolutely thrilled with how it came out. 📸 - @NASASpaceflight

Fire and fury of the Raptor 3s pushing Starship 14 skyward 🚀 I spent two years pursuing this image. I was certain that I'd failed again today. Got home and discovered that, in fact, I hadn't.

Starship has reached orbit, at last! We saw some snags with the Raptor engines on Booster & Ship, but they had the authority to push through to two successful splashdowns. Plus, Starlink v3 is en route to serving customers! → piped.video/grUdB5SjqJ8

Starship transiting the Sun this morning during Flight 14 — prior to this morning's mission, this has never been captured before with the world's largest and most powerful rocket. I’ve ached over this shot for years, mainly for two reasons: what does methane exhaust look like silhouetted against the Sun, and how violent are the acoustic energy waves from 33 Raptor engines on the Super Heavy booster? Well...now we have an answer. 📸 - @NASASpaceflight

The occasional clouds allowed the shockwaves of Booster 21 to be visible at times throughout reentry. Incredible to think of the scale and just how fast the booster is moving! @NASASpaceflight

We're waiting for SpaceX's final call on the orbital attempt. Was called off, then they wanted to take another look, but they have to make the call very soon.

SpaceX decides not to go to orbit.
Ship 41 SECO. Had lost one RVac, so we'll see what they decide for the orbital element.
