Constant communication is what makes autonomy like this safe. Early contact lets us take maneuvering responsibility, publish ephemeris faster than ground radar can catalog the object, and deorbit and keep commanding through demise if needed
We treat early communications as a requirement, not a nice-to-have
SpaceX has launched every rocket in their lineup, 3 different vehicles, from 4 different pads, in 3 different states this week.
They also lifted basically every “category” of payload. Starlink, Crew, Commercial, and Military.
WHAT. A. WEEK.
Teams complete three Falcon launches, four first stage landings at four landing zones in Florida and California, and docking Dragon to the @Space_Station for our 21st human spaceflight in under 13 hours
The scale of SpaceX satellites is getting absolutely insane
Each generation roughly doubles or more in deployed size
Starlink V1.5: ~11 m
V2 Mini: ~30 m
V3: ~60 m
AI1: ~75 m wingspan - first-generation orbital AI compute satellite
Roadster event update
We've been tracking the weather closely with local meteorologists, but given the severe conditions predicted & because this event can only be held outdoors, we've made the difficult decision to reschedule.
New date is October 15. Additional details to follow
Hot damn.... it is even more incredible watching sped up. Look at the lighting through that whole sequence as the next Starlink follows it out. Unbelievable! 🤯🤯🤯
