I live closer to Bakhmut than to Lisbon.
I live closer to Kyiv than to Paris.
This is a war for Europe's heartland.
The US have made it clear they have abandoned any will to stand up to a heinous dictator.
It is time for Europe to step up, @EU_Commission!

While everyone is gushing about the Starship booster catch and how pretty the debris of Ship 33 over the Carribean was, I was busy looking at the new stuff that was put into Kitten Space Agency! Here's all the dirty litter deets 😺 🚀 🌍

So there was debris outside the hazard zone when Starship 33 was destroyed during Flight 7.
"The FAA briefly slowed and diverted aircraft around the area where space vehicle debris was falling. Normal operations have resumed.
A Debris Response Area is activated only if the space vehicle experiences an anomaly with debris falling outside of the identified closed aircraft hazard areas. It allows the FAA to direct aircraft to exit the area and prevent others from entering."
The FAA confirming that there was debris was outside of the hazard areas.

Visual confirmation of Starship's demise.
Contact was lost at T+8:27 into flight.
Just saw the most insane #spacedebris #meteorshower right now in Turks and Caicos @elonmusk what is it??
I'm not up to date with Starship's development.
Is today's flight 7 already the block 2 Starship with the new flap design and longer body?
And is this already a booster with the hot staging ring integrated into the structure and not just attached on top?
Congrats, Blue Origin, on a successful launch of New Glenn!
Best of luck next time for landing the booster!
New Glenn safely reached its intended orbit during today's NG-1 mission, accomplishing our primary objective. The second stage is in its final orbit following two successful burns of the BE-3U engines. The Blue Ring Pathfinder is receiving data and performing well.
We lost the booster during descent. We knew landing the first stage on the first try was ambitious. We'll learn, refine, and apply that knowledge to our next launch in the spring. We're thrilled with today's outcome. More: bit.ly/4hj8q0o

I know that Blue Origin have occasionally talked about the next step after New Glenn being New Armstrong, but, consider that they could name it after America’s first woman in space.
New Ride has a nice ring to it.
Looks like Blue gets ready to try launching New Glenn again.
The NG-1 countdown clock is proceeding. The three-hour launch window opens at 1 a.m. EST (0600 UTC).
Live webcast begins here 20 minutes before launch.

The one-two punch of YouTubers fighting Honey/Paypal. First @LegalEagle with the creator class action jab, now @GamersNexus with the pro-consumer uppercut.
I don't know how boxing works.
But I know you should watch this almost 90min video: youtube.com/watch?v=IKbFBgNu…
Poor @MarcusHouse's feed is starting to become a bit silly 😂
By now, I think the likelihood of a scrub is higher than an actual launch.
The rocket nerd in me thinks it's funny that one of the stream hosts for New Glenn is called Ariane.
