Devastating news today. Richard “Levelord” Gray was such a great guy. Like many of our friends, I wish I could have hung out with him again. He was full of life, a gentle soul, and an excellent level designer. He was called “Levelord” for a reason. I loved the first episode of DN3D but was more drawn in by E2 and E3 that had such distinctive designs. We’re gonna miss you, man. You were one of the best.

In may of 2025, a bit after FLT-9, i submitted a FOIA request to the FAA to receive copies of the final mishap reports for Flights 7 & 8. Over a year and a half later, and they finally got back to me. The mishap reports are heavily redacted as i expected but are still cool.

Ok so yes by an absurd margin 😂 Ship is probably >160t dry So something like ~270t at least. Heaviest single object prior was likely Skylab at 77t 😂
Is Starship heaviest single object in space? ~130t ship + ~50t payload + ~40t landing fuel + ~20t residuals Gotta be >200 tons likely closer to 250t
